A distinctive former Shooting Lodge set within Garendon Park, offered chain free with about 2.83 acres of grounds and direct access beneath the estate’s historic arched entrance. The detached lodge provides two principal living areas: a ground-floor reception/dining hall, kitchen, cloakroom and sitting room with an open fire; a separate first-floor studio accessed via its own entrance and spiral staircase, containing a kitchenette, sitting/bed area and shower room. Total internal area is approximately 1,075 sq ft.
The setting is the property’s main asset — Grade II registered parkland, mature lawns and trees, and nearby scheduled Cistercian abbey ruins create rare privacy and strong character. Practical positives include off-street parking, very low local crime, council tax band A and clear title (freehold).
Buyers should note the lodge needs updating and ongoing maintenance: the external paintwork is peeling, walls are likely uninsulated (stone construction), and the heating is oil-fired with boiler and radiators. Although the building itself is not listed, the site sits within a listed park and adjacent scheduled monument, so any alterations or development potential will be subject to estate and planning controls.
This property suits a buyer seeking a unique period home with extensive grounds — ideal for a buyer wanting privacy, a conversion or small-scale redevelopment (subject to consents). It will particularly appeal to investors or purchasers prepared to carry out refurbishment and navigate heritage constraints to realise the plot’s potential.
