Summary - Melbourne Road , Allerthorpe, East Riding of Yorkshire, YO42 4RL YO42 4RL
2 bed 1 bath Lodge
Low-maintenance waterside retreat in a peaceful village setting.
Stunning lakeside views with large decking
Set on a waterside pitch in a quiet village park, this modern two-bedroom lodge offers bright, open-plan living and sweeping lakeside views. Bifold doors open from the living area onto a generous deck that faces the water, creating an uplifting indoor-outdoor flow ideal for relaxed mornings and low-maintenance entertaining.
The layout includes a larger-than-average main bedroom with built-in storage and an en-suite double shower, a second bedroom, family bathroom, extra snug and a practical utility room. The kitchen/dining area has space for an American-style fridge/freezer and connects directly to the living room, making everyday life convenient and sociable. Off-street parking and a storage shed add useful practicality.
Important—this home sits on a leisure licence with 40 years remaining on the lease. That short lease length, plus an annual combined ground rent/service charge of £7,000, limits mortgage options and may mean lenders refuse to lend. Buyers should check finance availability carefully and factor ongoing charges into affordability calculations.
For downsizers or buyers seeking a low-maintenance second home or holiday let in an affluent, rural setting, the lodge offers strong lifestyle appeal: waterside views, fast broadband, low local crime and nearby schools. However, the tenure and high annual charges are material drawbacks that will affect long-term value and lending, so proceed only after full due diligence.
