A striking Tudor‑style detached lodge set on a large private plot close to Lido Park and town amenities. The house offers abundant character — leaded windows, exposed beams, an inglenook fireplace with log burner, high ceilings and generous room proportions — arranged as three double bedrooms plus a versatile ground‑floor reception/bedroom four and a conservatory opening onto south/side lawned gardens. A double garage and gated rear driveway provide extensive parking and park access.
The ground floor centres on an open‑plan kitchen‑diner with contemporary fitted units, granite worktops and integrated Neff appliances, creating family living space with direct conservatory access. The main bedroom benefits from fitted wardrobes and a Jack‑and‑Jill bathroom, while bedroom two has an en‑suite — useful for family or guest use. The property is offered chain free, with immediate vacant possession possible.
Practical considerations: the house is an older solid‑brick build (c.1900–1929) with assumed uninsulated walls and an Energy Performance band indicating poor efficiency ( EPC F referenced). The double glazing install date is unknown; energy and thermal performance improvements are likely needed. The area statistics note a very high local crime score and wider area deprivation indicators, which should be weighed against the property’s central location and parkside position.
This is a characterful family home with substantial garden, parking and flexible living space for those seeking a period property with scope to improve energy efficiency and modernise where desired. Viewings are recommended to appreciate the scale, setting and garden privacy first‑hand.
