Overview

The property is believed to date from 1840 and was constructed as a Lodge House for Maulden Grange. The current owners have carefully updated and restored it, with careful attention taken to blend its many traditional features with modern day amenities. On the ground floor there are two principal reception rooms, a conservatory, a separate study, and a kitchen/breakfast room with access to a family bathroom. On the first floor there are two double and two single bedrooms and a shower room. The principal bedroom has a traditional fireplace and a built-in wardrobe.

Outside

The property is bound by a brick wall with a pillared entrance and gravel path to the entrance door, with raised borders and an ornamental pond on one side and box hedges and a variety of wild flowers on the other. A driveway serving this and the neighbouring house provides parking and access to the detached double garage. Above the garage and accessed by an external staircase is the games/cinema room. There is an EV charging point. The gardens provide screening and privacy and include a detached home office with power connected and a wash basin and WC.
