Naseby Lodge

Discretely sited at the end of an extensive tree-lined driveway, Naseby Lodge is surrounded by grassland, and enjoying wide open vistas from the majority of the primary accommodation.
Internally, the property is finished to a high specification, with large picture windows framing stunning views of the surrounding landscape, folding glazed walls to the rear elevation with underfloor heating throughout from a 'ground source' heat pump, integrated Sonos system, programmable lighting, and interiors finished with a considerable flair.
At the heart of the house, a double height reception hall, with a limestone and glass dividing staircase draws the eye up to the high vaulted ceiling bounded by curved laminated oak beams. The kitchen adjoins the breakfasting area, which in turn is separated from the sitting room by a double-sided fireplace.
The drawing room to the front of the house has a traditional feel, with a large open fireplace to one wall, and sliding doors to two elevations that open out onto the terrace and formal gardens beyond.
The garden room has a double-height vaulted ceiling with fully glazed walls, separated by sliding glazed doors from the reception hall. A generous study is off the hall, and sits next to an excellent walk in china cupboard with its own basin. There is a cloakroom next door. In addition, the ground floor has a utility wing includes a 400kg lift, laundry, utility/boot room, downstairs showering facilities, wine 'cellar' and a plant room.
The principal suite, set to the South East corner of this magnificent home, takes up a large portion of the rear of the house, with a substantial bedroom, bathroom, private balcony and dressing room that also serves as a secondary bedroom to the suite.
Elsewhere, there are three guest bedrooms with private bathrooms, all finished to a very high standard, one of which has a private balcony. There are a further three bedrooms and two bath/shower rooms.
Accessed via a separate staircase from the rear hall is a further bedroom or first floor sitting room/playroom, of an excellent size, situated over the double garage.
The property is approached via a 150 yard long tree lined driveway terminating at a parking area with space for multiple cars to the front of the house. The drive continues to the left, wrapping around the rear of the barns to a large hardstanding and yard. The main house has extensive landscaped gardens primarily set to the South and West, a terrace to two elevations and a ha-ha to the East opening onto extensive and uninterrupted views towards Cottesbrooke Park. Set off the rear hall is a pretty kitchen garden with greenhouse.

A third terrace is found through double doors, overlooking the pastureland and panoramic views beyond.
