OASIS OF CALM .
Wrapped up in its own lushly landscaped grounds, approach Granby Lodge via the lengthy, laurel hedge-lined driveway, where upon arrival, soul-soothing vistas over open countryside and meadows greet you.
Tucked behind a five-bar gate, make your way to the portico covered front door to Granby Lodge, before stepping into the entrance hallway, where flagstone flooring runs underfoot. Sense the Georgian symmetry as doors lead off to the left and right.
WARM WELCOME .
Step through to original floorboards of the first reception. An open fire sits within a marble surround, with alcoves to either side dressed in an eye-catching blue in contrast to the crisp white ceiling and walls. Currently used as a day room, there is versatility about the rooms at Granby Lodge.
Across the hallway a wide doorway opens into the sitting room, where alcoves frame the fireplace that houses a warming log-burning stove. South facing, the room is light and bright with views out across the garden.
Flagstone flooring draws you along the hallway, to the staircase that rises to the first floor, and a door that descends to the spacious cellars below.
FOLLOW THE FLOW .
Follow your nose through to the kitchen, stepping down onto the gleaming tiled floor. Cream cabinetry houses ample storage with a contrasting granite worktop extending to provide plenty of preparation space.
Beyond the breakfast bar, discover a peaceful living area, illuminated by skylights above and bifolding doors
which provide instant access out to the suntrap terrace. Tucked away in the corner is a handy boot room and
cloakroom, with access outdoors, perfect for kicking off muddy boots after countryside walks.
Opening up from the sociable kitchen and living area, the dining area is ideally located for hosting family and friends. A separate laundry room is accessed from here.
A picturesque, walled courtyard provides a private spot to dine al fresco. Enjoy your favourite tipple and watch the evening sunsets.
SOAK AND SLEEP .
Ascend the split-level staircase to the first floor. Emerging on the landing, light flows down from the roof lantern above and archways embellish the ceiling.
The first bedroom to discover is located to the rear of the home, enjoying westerly sunsets over the countryside. This bright bedroom has two built-in wardrobes providing ample storage.
Step down to discover the family bathroom. Spacious, airy and with soothing spa-vibes in its decor, light a scented candle and sink into comfort in the large, rolltop bathtub.
Two further bedrooms - one currently used as a dressing room - boast a southerly aspect, overlooking the picturesque scenes to the front of Granby Lodge.
YOUR PRINCIPAL AWAITS .
Broad built-in wardrobes provide a profusion of storage in the principal bedroom to the end of the landing, a spacious room overlooking the front gardens of Granby Lodge. Steps lead down to a stylish en suite with dual wash basins and a large wet room with waterfall shower heads.
SUNSHINE, SHELTER AND SHADE .
Birdsong serenades you constantly in the expansive grounds of Granby Lodge. Planted with an incredible variety of trees, meander through the separate areas of the garden, seeking refuge from the heat of the summer sun beneath their boughs.
A yew tree hedge guides you from the front door to the first of three ponds filled with water lilies and fish, providing refreshment for the senses. Laurel hedging continues around the south facing main garden, dappled with mature trees, providing shelter and shade. Private seating areas allow you ample opportunity to sit and soak up the sunshine.
From the courtyard, two characterful red brick outbuildings provide storage for garden paraphernalia. Walking beneath an archway within the outbuildings, discover the kitchen garden; select fresh fruit for your breakfast from the raised beds and fruit trees in the orchard.
Beyond, the paddock and stable are ideal for those with equestrian interests, and an ideal spot too for those with dogs. Enjoy the peace and tranquillity of your own private piece of paradise at Granby Lodge.
A triple timber garage offers additional space to park up
