Summer Breeze Lodge

The delightfully named Summer Breeze Lodge is an impressive detached family home located on a private road that only leads to the local farm so it is very quiet and peaceful with stunning views across the surrounding countryside and the National Trust owned Luccombe and Wroxall Downs. The house has been beautifully maintained and refurbished by the owners to include replacement triple glazed windows, a new kitchen and bathrooms as well as being re-decorated throughout, so is in an immaculate condition.

It is set back from the road and approached up a wide driveway bordered by a front lawn that leads to the double garage and where you can park three or four cars. The exterior of the property is very appealing with its varied roof lines, black and white eaves and stone feature as well as steps up to the attractive wood front door with a glass inset. This opens into the fascinating tiled hall that is partially double height with a central staircase and visible galleried landing on three sides as well as a useful understairs cupboard, a dado rail and half height wall panelling.

There is a large and contemporary kitchen/dining room that was only installed a year ago. It includes a peninsular breakfast bar and an extensive range of fitted units and cupboards including full height Larder, a five-ring gas hob, built in double oven and microwave, with space for an American style fridge freezer and fitted dishwasher as well as an adjacent utility room and cloakroom. It has a large dining area with French doors to the stunning sun room. This has a sloping roof and multi-pane windows along one wall with two sets of French doors to the paved terrace that runs the width of the building. A large lounge includes a charming fireplace with a log burner, French doors to the terrace and a delightful dais where you can put another dining table and seat up to 10 guests.

Off the first-floor galleried landing is a trendy family bathroom and six bedrooms. These include a guest room with an en suite shower, another that is being used as a ‘snug’ but has fitted wardrobes, an office and the spacious main bedroom with its contemporary double shower room and large dressing room. The property also enjoys highly efficient underfloor heating throughout.

The main terrace is ideal for sunbathing and al fresco dining but there is also a pergola covered raised decked area that houses a three-seat hot tub. The rest of the secure and easy to manage garden consists of a large lawn, mature shrubs, a garden shed and a relaxing ‘nook’ at the end of the garden that backs on to fields and where you can enjoy a night cap watching the amazing sunsets.
