Set within approximately 1.09 acres (sts), Maple Lodge is a modern four-bedroom detached home built in 2008 and finished to a high specification. Ground-floor living flows through bi-fold doors to a private patio and garden; the kitchen-diner and living room both connect to outdoor entertaining space. Practical upgrades include underfloor heating on the ground floor, Karndean-style flooring, a wood-burning stove and modern doors and windows installed within the last four years.
The plot is a major selling point for equestrian or small-holding buyers: fenced paddocks, a timber stable block with electricity, a large hay barn and planning permission for a 40x20m all-weather menage with drainage (Planning Ref B/23/0287). Sustainable and practical fittings include eight privately owned solar panels, an EV charging point and a 4,000-litre underground rainwater tank with pump.
Rooms are flexible: four double bedrooms upstairs with an en-suite to the principal bedroom, plus a family bathroom and cloakroom. A double garage (one bay partly partitioned for storage) and gated driveway serve the house; a neighbouring driveway is used under a right of access for larger vehicles to the rear paddocks and buildings. EPC rating C and council tax band E are noted.
Important practical points: heating is oil-fired with radiators, broadband and mobile signal are average for the area, and there is an overage clause on the land relating to planning permissions granted within a 50-year period. Viewers seeking a large semi-rural home with equestrian facilities will find strong potential here, but should budget for ongoing heating costs and review the overage detail before purchase.
