Cross Park Lodge is a substantial Victorian detached home extensively refurbished to combine period grandeur with contemporary comfort. The house offers truly flexible accommodation across four floors — ideal for a large family, multi‑generational living or continued short‑term rental use. Recent works include a new boiler, partial rewire, upgraded radiators, and a tasteful redecoration throughout.
The lower ground floor has been converted to high standard with insulated walls, new electrics and soundproofing, currently providing a gym, cinema/games room, two double bedrooms and a luxury bathroom. That level retains the potential to be reinstated as a self-contained annexe or let unit (kitchen pre‑plumbed), making it an obvious income generator or independent suite for family members.
Outside, the property sits on a very large, south‑westerly garden with a raised composite deck, sheltered patio, glazed Victorian canopy and hot tub. A private driveway (shared with two other houses), ample parking for multiple vehicles including motorhomes, and a double garage add practical appeal. With no onward chain and very low local crime, the house is ready to view and adapt to new owners’ needs.
Notable caveats are factual: the home is a Victorian solid‑brick construction and older walls are assumed to lack cavity insulation; many but not all windows have been replaced (double glazing largely pre‑2002). The property has been partially rewired rather than fully, and council tax is above average — important considerations when budgeting for ongoing running costs or further upgrades.
