Queen’s Lodge is a stunning individually designed house built in 2001. The house is set on the site of a former 19th-century lodge that once formed part of the Dropmore Estate. The Estate was often visited by Queen Victoria, hence the name “Queen’s Lodge”. The modern house is a high specification property which is finished to an exceptional standard and offers expansive accommodation across the main house and a separate studio apartment above the garage. The near two acre grounds comprise formal gardens, a swimming pool, tennis court and boules pitch, all of which are well enclosed for a feeling of outstanding privacy. <br/> <br/>The house, though contemporary, has a character feel with its attractive timber-framed elevations with decorative brick and tile design. Internally, decorative plasterwork, brick and stone fireplaces and woodenframed leaded-style windows add further character, though the fixtures and fittings are all extremely modern. The kitchen is a particular highlight, with its Häcker cabinetry, lighting and Lusso Silestone surfaces, and there are premium Miele integrated appliances. The room is open plan, with zoned areas for entertaining and family and forms the heart of the house with doors leading onto the garden. Separately there are two formal reception rooms, a study, a laundry room and a cloakroom with WC. On the first floor, all five bedrooms are double size with built-in storage. Three are en suite, with the principal bedroom also having its own balcony overlooking the gardens, and there is a separate family bathroom. The second floor has a cinema room which could be converted for additional bedrooms if required. Above the triple garage is a self-contained studio apartment with kitchen/sitting/bedroom and en suite shower room, which could be ideal for an au pair, housekeeper or older children living at home.
