Agents Comments
Mona Lodge is a period home dating back to the late 1700s, set in approx. 5 acres of manicured lawns and grounds. The property consists of a 5 bedroom main house, a 1 bedroom coach flat, 2 bedroom bungalow, 1 bed cottage and 2 barns/garages. Mona Lodge’s gardens are truly something to behold, bathed in sunshine, private and provide views over the plantations to the south. The main house has retained a lot of the original features, however could benefit from modernisation – the most recent update was the rear glass extension, which provides an inside/outside living and entertaining space. A viewing is essential to really appreciate the house, the outbuildings, the garden and the views. To arrange a viewing, contact Orry-James Creane on 01624 625888 (option 1) or email ojcreane@cowleygroves.com.
