" This impressive and characterful detached home is available to let - on a part-furnished basis - to a single person or a couple (it is not suitable for children or pets due to its proximity to the busy main road with fast-moving vehicles).

Originally built as a lodge for Derwentcote Hall, the cottage has many interesting mid-19th centuryGothic architectural features, and has been improved and modernised internally to provide a wonderful blend of period charm and the convenience and luxury of modern living.

The accommodation comprises: arched door into the side entrance lobby, sitting room open into the kitchen, which is fitted with white high gloss units and integrated appliances; through glazed double doors there is the dining room, which opens into the lounge. Also off the kitchen is a door to the inner hallway, which leads to the two double bedrooms, the contemporary bathroom - fitted with a white suite and separate shower cubicle - as well as leading to the other entrance lobby, which has plumbing for a washing machine.

Externally, there is a sizeable lawned garden to the rear and a spacious cobbled driveway - with room to park several cars - as well as another smaller lawn and stone-flagged patio areas. There is some integral storage in a cellar, accessed from the rear, as well as an additional stone-built shed.

In addition to the Lodge and its garden, there may be an opportunity for a tenant with an equestrian interest to rent stables and a paddock, directly across the A694, from the landlord. This would be be agreed directly with the landlord if desired and appropriateavailable at the time.
