Giggs & Company Signature Homes offer for sale this iconic FIVE BEDROOM DETACHED period home located on a generous ONE ACRE PLOT on the RIVER OUSE St Neots. St Neots is a large bustling town in Cambridgeshire, which has a long history with evidence of a settlement as early as the Iron Age. The town has plenty to offer for urban living, with lovely parks, a good selection of high street shops, pubs, restaurants and a multiplex cinema. The town's population has grown considerably over the last thirty years, partly due to its proximity to London with fast and efficient rail and road links. And St Neots owes much of its success, both historically and in the present day, to the impressive River Great Ouse, which courses its way through St Neots, encouraging pleasure boating, fishing and even feeding the ducks, giving heart to the town and playing a huge part in the life of the stunning property that we want you to consider today. Crosshall Lodge is, quite simply, fabulous. The central original house dates back to the Georgian era and there are two side extensions, dating from the Victorian and Edwardian periods, which blend beautifully together thus making Crosshall Lodge and very substantial property. The main house is three stories and has all the magnificent features that one would expect from original Georgian architecture; large airy rooms, interesting features and truly majestic windows, which take full advantage of the breath-taking outdoor space, but more on that shortly.Crosshall Lodge is a family home but certainly not of the average variety. Hidden from sight by an array of beautiful trees, the gravel drive, which circles the entire property, takes you to another world; an elegant world where fine architectural features merge with the comfort and warmth one hopes for in a home that deserves to be enjoyed and respected. As with all period properties the layout of the rooms is intriguing. The ground floor is comprised of a plethora of spacious rooms, including the kitchen/breakfast room, containing an original Butler's Pantry which is a useful space for writing your shopping list. There is a proper Aga, which warms the entire room and the lobby off the kitchen also contains a marvelous walk-in pantry and large utility/boot room. There is a large formal dining room and other rooms are the library, garden room, games room and cloakroom; all generous with high ceilings and, of course, those fabulous windows.The second floor houses three of the five double bedrooms, two of which are en-suite, also a large study, and a cloakroom off the landing. The heart of the property is the glorious sitting room; big, beautiful and flooded with natural light from three remarkable Georgian windows, complete with authentic wooden shutters that adds a real touch of sophistication. The sitting room is comfortably heated with an interesting open fireplace at one end and a sensitively chosen modern gas fire at the other end. This is a large room but perfect for family gatherings or celebrations.The third floor, which is entirely Georgian, is home to the final two bedrooms, both very large and with the use of a shared bathroom off the generous landing. Again, the windows take full advantage of the wonderful garden views and both rooms are light and airy.There are plenty of other features that make this house a showpiece home. Almost every room has an original fireplace, ranging from the big and impressive to the small and utterly delightful. There is ample storage throughout, with plenty of space for the whole family to fill. And the outdoor space, well now we're talking…The garden at the back of the house, which is officially the front due to the circular drive, is the stuff of dreams. An acre of land with beautiful lawns slopes down to the River Great Ouse with panoramic views beyond. There is a secluded mooring for a good-sized boat and you will definitely have the best seats in the area to enjoy the annual St Neots Regatta and Dragon Boat racing. Halfway down the garden sits an attractive pergola where a glass of chilled Chablis could be enjoyed and, almost at the water's edge, is a fun beach hut with glorious views of the river and don't be surprised if the local swans find you as interesting as you will find them. A selection of trees lines the garden, with a secret path and den, which children will simply adore.And looking back towards the house allows one to appreciate its full splendour. Crosshall Lodge is a truly handsome house, surprisingly close to the town and all that it has to offer, and yet is a tranquil haven in a prestigious location with some of the finest scenery literally evolving from your own land. This is a house that demands to be lived in and thoroughly enjoyed; add to this a great location ideal for the commuter, excellent schools and plenty of amenities, including a golf course on the doorstep plus, and it's a huge plus; the Great Ouse at the end of the garden…perfection.To arrange a viewing appointment or for further information contact Giggs & company Signature Homes on 01480 276888
