Seller Insight

Coton Wood Lodge is a lovely detached home sitting within the original grounds of Coton Wood Grange and now offering an independent home with is own access and grounds.

“The cottage, nestled in a private plot, was converted from an old stable block in 2009, ” say the owners. “It’s a great size and very well appointed, and it’s been ideal for visiting guests, but we always thought this could make a fabulous independent home for someone and now it is time for us to move on, that is what we are creating.”

‘The plan is to add a timber-framed storm porch which will give the home a lovely distinctive appearance from the front and we are happy to construct a single timber framed garage if a buyer needs one.”

It is intended the home will have four bedrooms all finished to a high specification. “When we built the main home and this annexe back in 2000, we really designed and built everything to the highest specification. The conversion when completed was a great use of the space as we were able to create a fantastic lounge and separate kitchen and with vaulted ceilings, these rooms are really spacious. “ The owners continue “ Already having 2 bedrooms the option of creating 2 more bedrooms and bathroom to the rear of the home was an obvious choice and this is simple to create with a stylish glass atrium leading to the rear wing. “

“Over the years we have built many properties and the lodge will make a very special home and we intend to continue with the high-grade finish to all the boundaries and landscaping.”

“The house will enjoy this wonderfully secluded location too, it’s incredibly peaceful here and the views are something else, ” say the owners, “however we’ve never felt isolated. There’s a nice feeling of community within the village, nearby Uttoxeter and Ashbourne have all the shops and amenities to cater for day-to-day needs, there’s also a mainline station at Uttoxeter and we’re almost equidistant between the M1 and M6 so it’s relatively easy to get just about anywhere.”
