Property description

Frenchay Lodge is tucked discreetly behind Beckspool Road, and approached via a gated gravel entrance drive, over which it has a sole right of way. On turning into the private driveway itself, there is an expanse of parking, with the gravelled drive leading up to the detached double garage. The house is accessed via a flagstone pathway, leading to the front door, central entrance hall and the main accommodation.Internally, the house affords a generous footprint, with elegantly proportioned accommodation over two floors. Of particular note is the fabulous family kitchen, with plenty of space to cook, dine and entertain in, which is adjacent to the generous family drawing room, complete with an open fire and views over the front garden. French doors from the kitchen open out into the pretty rear garden, with plenty of paved terrace for a morning coffee and breakfast, whilst to the front is further hard standing to dine late into the afternoon and catching the early evening sun. Over the remainder of the ground floor is a charming sitting room, and a separate study which leads to the utility room and a generous conservatory / sun room with doors opening out to the front garden. This room would lend itself to becoming a family gym, or games room – further enhancing the property’s flexible layout. Upstairs, over the first floor are five double bedrooms. The master has access to a “Jack & Jill” style en-suite shower room, and there is a further family bathroom. The current owners extended the house from its original size some years ago, which gives the house its ability to accommodate a large and growing family over many years. OutsideThe gardens surrounding Frenchay Lodge are an absolute delight. Notwithstanding the historic Tulip Tree – which is a magnificent specimen, they catch much of the day’s sun, following it around from the enclosed rear garden in the morning to the extensive front garden from around midday and beyond. The front garden is predominately laid to lawn, giving families of all ages a lovely space to play and entertain in, whilst to the rear the garden is broken up with a lawn and terrace and a variety of mature fruit trees. To the front of the house there is an expanse of off-street parking, along with the benefit of a detached double garage and workshop. This could, subject to consent, provide scope to develop into a separate dwelling / studio, and perhaps accommodate a dependent relative. Currently however, it is an excellent garage, storage and a decent size workshop.
