"Grade II listed Georgian townhouse, set within charming gardens of about one acre.

Description

The Beeches is a most impressive and beloved Grade II Listed Georgian townhouse in the centre of Loddon. Believed to date back to 1740, the current owners have extremely well maintained the property creating a fine example of the period yet offering exceptional family friendly living arrangements.

Totalling nearly 4700 sq ft of accommodation and spread over three floors, the property provides three welcoming reception rooms including a generously proportioned home study, elegant drawing room and a further sitting room usefully positioned next to the kitchen.

The show stopping kitchen is handmade which with its beautiful aga, tiled flooring and island unit gives a country feel as well as benefitting from a southerly aspect to enjoy natural light.

Six bedrooms spread over the first and second floors provide ample family space and are served via two en suites and a family shower room. Of particular note is the en suite to the principal bedroom and the family shower room which were both refurbished in 2022 and provide luxuriously appointed suites.

Outside
The property is approached via double gates leading into an extensive gravel parking area. The Beeches sits within a plot of about one acre and the gardens are enclosed by a brick wall.

Offering various areas of interest the owners have created a characterful garden complete with a variety of mature shrubs and trees as well as a practical raised kitchen garden and attractive parterre.

A heated outdoor swimming pool is perfectly away from the house and enclosed within its own walled area. A detached coach house provides secure storage as well as the potential, subject to the necessary planning consents for a conversion to secondary accommodation.
