Parkley Lodge is an impressive Victorian country house occupying over 5 acres of landscaped grounds with panoramic rural views. The substantial principal house (approx. 7,363 sq ft) offers six bedrooms, four reception rooms, three bathrooms and flexible attic/wing space ideal for a principal suite or additional bedrooms. Period features include pitch pine doors, intricate marquetry and a unique carved fireplace reclaimed from a cathedral organ.
The estate includes a large courtyard of brick outbuildings and barns in good condition, providing excellent scope for conversion to extra accommodation, studios or offices (subject to planning). Practical spaces include a lower-ground wine cellar, boot room and generous storage. The property benefits from off-street parking and a sweeping gravel drive set in a very private, elevated position.
Buyers should note some practical constraints: heating is oil-fired via boiler and radiators, drainage is by private septic tank, and the house has solid brick walls likely lacking modern cavity insulation. There is a right of way along an unowned access track. The location is rural and relatively remote, with good broadband but average mobile signal and limited nearby services.
This is an excellent opportunity for a family seeking a large, characterful country home with development potential, or for a purchaser interested in converting outbuildings. The house has been well cared for by long-term owners but will reward investment to modernise services and improve thermal performance.
