The Lodge, Foxwood Court – Lanchester Village

A truly rare find in the heart of Lanchester - this beautiful four-bedroom stone-built bungalow offers elegant single-storey living within one of the village’s most desirable gated developments.

Positioned on Foxwood Court, a private and peaceful enclave of just five homes, The Lodge combines craftsmanship, privacy, and convenience in perfect measure. Built in traditional stone beneath a slate roof, the property is immaculately presented throughout and offered vacant with no onward chain, allowing the next owner to move straight in and enjoy.

Property Overview

Set across one spacious level, The Lodge blends timeless design with modern ease. High ceilings, deep coving, and generous proportions give an immediate sense of scale and quality. From its welcoming porch to the elegant garden views, every detail reflects careful maintenance and understated style.

Living Room

At the heart of the home, the lounge is an inviting and impressive space featuring a stone-built Inglenook fireplace with a solid oak mantel and inset gas fire. A large arched window fills the room with natural light and frames the rear courtyard garden beautifully. Finished in warm neutral tones with soft grey carpeting, this is a room made for both relaxation and entertaining.

Kitchen & Utility Room

The well-appointed kitchen combines practicality with refinement. Fitted with light oak cabinetry, marble worktops, and a full range of integrated appliances, it offers ample space for family dining. Terra cotta tiled flooring adds warmth and character, complementing the bright and airy design.

The adjoining utility room provides additional cupboard storage, an integrated washing machine, and houses the EcoCompact boiler - with direct access to the courtyard for convenience.

Bedrooms & Bathrooms

The property offers four generous bedrooms - a true rarity in Lanchester for a bungalow of this style.

The master suite features serene décor and a modern en-suite shower room, while the remaining three bedrooms offer flexible use as guest rooms, a study, or hobby space.

The family bathroom is finished to a high standard with high-gloss grey tiles, a panelled bath, separate shower cubicle, pedestal basin, and low-level W.C., combining function and finesse.

External Features

Approached through electric gates, The Lodge enjoys a strong sense of privacy and security. To the front, there are two private parking bays, and to the rear, a charming enclosed garden with a mature tree and seating area - the perfect spot for morning coffee or evening relaxation. The stone elevations and landscaped surrounds enhance the overall sense of quality and calm.

Tenure & Management

The property is leasehold with a one-fifth share of the freehold, offering the best of both worlds - long-term stability and joint control over the estate.
A service charge of £580 every six months represents excellent value for money, covering the maintenance of the electric gates, communal lighting, insurance, and landscaping that keep Foxwood Court pristine year-round.
