A VERY RARE OPPORTUNITY!
East Lodge was once part of the Madeley Manor estate, built by Lord Crewe in the early 1800's, with the drive to the left of the lodge leading to a tree-lined carriageway to the manor. Parkland between the lodge and the manor itself was used for an annual fete during the 1880's, with the famous tightrope walker Charles Blondin featuring three times between 1887-1889, watched by approximately 26,000 people during his last appearance at the fete.
The property has remained in the ownership of the same family for several decades and presents a unique opportunity for a purchaser to take on a detached characterful bungalow which is steeped with history. East Lodge has been extended several times over the years, although the original building maintains a number of original features with high ceilings.
An entrance porch and hallway leads to a lounge and dining room, with a kitchen and bathroom which both overlook the parkland leading to Madeley Manor. There is also an inner hall accessing the two bedrooms, with a sun room/conservatory leading to the rear garden.
The property occupies a prime plot on the outskirts of Madeley, with countryside views to the side and rear of the property. Off road parking is provided via a tarmacadam driveway and detached double tandem garage, whilst the delightful rear garden is mostly laid to lawn with a patio area and mature shrubs.
Madeley is a popular village just outside of Newcastle-Under-Lyme, with easy access to commuting links such as the A34 and M6 motorway. There are two schools nearby (Sir John Offley C of EVC Primary School and Madeley School), whilst pubs, shops and other amenities are within close proximity within Madeley itself. The property is ideally placed for Keele University, which is approximately three miles away.
East Lodge presents a very unique and rare opportunity, and although requiring modernisation, this is a property packed full of potential - please contact butters john bee to arrange your viewing before it's too late!
