Summary - MORLEY MANOR THE LODGE HOUSE MAIN ROAD MORLEY ILKESTON DE7 6DG
3 bed 2 bath Cottage
Historic charm with modern comfort on a generous private plot.
Grade II listed former gatehouse with period stonework
A charming Grade II listed former gatehouse, The Lodge House blends period character with contemporary finishes across about 1,232 sq ft. Sympathetically extended, the home offers a spacious sitting/dining room with log burner and a high-spec contemporary kitchen and utility — ready for comfortable family living in a peaceful semi-rural setting.
The house sits on a large, mature plot with manicured lawns, paved patio and generous gravel driveway; an outbuilding provides storage and there was previously approval for a detached garage (planning now lapsed). Practical benefits include ground-floor underfloor heating, oil-fired central heating and a mix of original stone mullion windows with secondary glazing and some replacement Crittall-style double glazing.
Important practical points: the property’s listed status will restrict alterations and may complicate future works or extensions. Heating runs on oil (not a community supply) and the walls appear to be solid stone without modern insulation, which can mean higher running costs. Broadband speeds are reported as slow and council tax is above average.
Presented chain free and in a quiet hamlet close to Morley Hayes Golf Club and countryside attractions, this home will suit a buyer who values historic character, a generous garden and high-quality internal finishes, and who is comfortable with listed-building considerations and some ongoing running costs.
