Built in the Tudor Gothic style, Bury Meadow Lodge dates from the 1850s. The property has retained a number of attractive character features including decorative bargeboards to all gables, stone mullioned glazing with diamond leaded panes and wooden flooring throughout. A moulded stone-pointed arched doorway with plank and cover strip front door leads to a triple-aspect sitting room with a cast iron fireplace and a door that leads to the inter-connecting dining room and kitchen. The well-proportioned dining room has a bay window and a pointed arched opening to the kitchen. Stairs from the kitchen lead to the first floor which offers a spacious front aspect master bedroom, one further well-proportioned bedroom and a family bathroom with a corner bath. French doors from a private inner courtyard give access to a studio with an en suite shower room, suitable for a variety of uses. The lodge has a drive, accessed via Woodbine Terrace, which provides private parking. The house has an inner private courtyard, as well as a low-maintenance paved garden, ideal for entertaining and al fresco dining, with views over Bury Meadow’s parkland.
