Situated between Micheldever and Woodmancote, London Lodge is an exceptional Grade II listed former gatehouse dating back to around 1806. Beautifully and sympathetically renovated, this unique home seamlessly blends striking period architecture with stylish contemporary finishes, creating a residence of remarkable character and charm.
The accommodation is immediately impressive, with original high-level sash windows flooding the ground floor with natural light. The property's distinctive central turreted archway leads into a private entrance hall and onwards to a contemporary fitted kitchen, thoughtfully designed with a range of wall and base units, complemented by a practical breakfast bar and dining room table with chairs.
A doorway from the kitchen opens into the delightful sitting room, where a wood-burning stove set within the period stone surround creates an attractive focal point. An ornate mirror above the mantel further enhances the room’s sense of space and character and is included within the sale.
A striking wrought-iron spiral staircase descends to the lower ground floor, with under floor heating , fully controllable in each bedroom and hallway .
There are two generously proportioned double bedrooms served by a refurbished stylish modern bathroom with underfloor heating featuring a lined wood effect shower enclosure.
Externally, the property is approached via a shared gravel driveway, partially enclosed by picket-style fencing, which leads to a generous parking area providing space for several vehicles. A gravel pathway continues through the lodge’s distinctive turreted archway, giving access to the rear garden and completing this highly individual and appealing home.
The property is located close to the M3, and some external road noise may be noticeable. However, the current owners have invested significantly in enhancing the property's sound insulation, resulting in a remarkably peaceful and comfortable internal environment.
An internal viewing is highly recommended to fully appreciate the character, quality, and unique setting of this exceptional home.
