Property description
Churcher Estates are proud to present this exquisite one-bedroom detached former lodge, steeped in Parbold's history and set within stunning private gardens on the sought-after Tan House Lane. Once part of the convent, this characterful property has been thoughtfully restored and renovated throughout, offering a rare opportunity to purchase not just a home but a lifestyle.
The approach sets the tone: a long driveway leads you through landscaped borders alive with seasonal colour, before reaching the charming stone-built lodge with its inviting sage-green front door. Entering the home, you are welcomed by traditional stone flag flooring, a feature that runs throughout the main living areas and immediately grounds the property in its historic past.
The lounge is a warm and characterful retreat, centred around an exposed brick fireplace with wood-burning stove. This space perfectly balances old and new, with period details complemented by modern décor and natural light flooding in from the sash-style windows. From here, the layout flows seamlessly into the kitchen, which has been fitted with shaker-style cabinetry, quartz worktops, and integrated appliances. A breakfast bar makes this space as practical as it is beautiful, creating the perfect spot for relaxed dining and entertaining. A cleverly designed utility room offers extra practicality, housing appliances and storage neatly out of sight.
The bedroom is an impressive and elegant retreat, thoughtfully designed to combine comfort with character. Its generous proportions are enhanced by high ceilings and clean, neutral décor, allowing the natural light from dual-aspect windows to fill the space throughout the day. A statement chandelier brings a touch of classic luxury, while the rich wood flooring and traditional barn-style door add warmth and personality. The room is large enough to accommodate a substantial bed alongside freestanding furniture, such as the beautiful wardrobe seen in place, making it both stylish and practical. This space feels refined yet homely, the perfect sanctuary at the end of the day.
The bathroom has been finished to an exceptional standard, offering a modern boutique feel that perfectly complements the property's heritage. A large walk-in shower with rainfall and handheld fittings is framed by sleek glass and contemporary tiling, creating a bright and luxurious space. The patterned floor tiles add a splash of individuality and charm, tying in with the home's balance of old and new. A modern vanity unit with inset sink provides excellent storage, while a heated towel rail adds comfort and functionality. Discreet frosted windows bring in natural light while maintaining privacy, giving the room a bright and airy atmosphere. Every element has been chosen with care, making this bathroom feel more like a private spa than a simple washroom.
Beyond the interiors, the outdoor spaces are what make this home truly remarkable. To the rear, a private walled courtyard offers a peaceful seating area, ideal for al fresco dining, entertaining guests, or simply enjoying a quiet morning coffee. Beyond the courtyard, the grounds unfold into a vast, manicured lawn enclosed by mature stone walls and hedges, creating a sense of seclusion and tranquillity.
Mature trees line the garden, offering dappled shade and a timeless parkland feel, while meandering pathways lead you through the space, encouraging you to explore. It's a garden that invites outdoor living, whether that's summer gatherings, gardening projects, or simply soaking up the calm in a private, green sanctuary.
The size and layout of the garden make it versatile, equally suited to those who love to host, those looking for space to unwind, or even those who may wish to create vegetable beds or further landscaping. The combination of the stone walls, lush lawns, and established trees gives the impression of stepping into your own private estate.
Renovated fully just three years ago, the property benefits from a complete rewire, a new boiler and central heating system, and a new water supply, blending peace of mind with historic charm.
Perfectly placed just a short stroll from Parbold's bustling village centre, with its independent shops, cafés, and pubs, and with excellent transport links via the local rail station, this home will appeal to working professionals, those looking to downsize, or anyone seeking a unique and character-filled residence.
This is not just a property, it is a chance to own a piece of Parbold's heritage, with modern comforts and breath-taking gardens creating a home of rare and lasting appeal.
