Description

Polvarth Lodge offers a significant opportunity for prospective buyers seeking a larger-than-average residence with great potential for renovation and development. Set within an expansive plot of over half an acre, this detached home combines space, privacy, and future possibilities that are hard to find in the current market. Spanning approximately 1632 sq. ft., the ground floor features an adaptable layout comprising an entrance hall, living room with a bay window, kitchen/dining area, utility room, sunroom, and separate dining room that opens to the garden. A standout aspect is the large bedroom with direct access to the outdoor space, which could accommodate multi-generational living or be transformed into a principal suite. Upstairs, the principal bedroom benefits from a sizable en-suite bathroom alongside another bedroom. While the property has been cherished as a family home, it now requires a thorough updating process; this is an exceptional canvas for buyers eager to create a personalized living environment that meets modern standards. The gardens are predominantly level and laid to lawn, providing manageable upkeep combined with mature trees and shrubs for added charm. Furthermore, separate access onto Polvarth Road enhances both practicality and potential planning options for expansion or redevelopment. With its generous accommodation and promising renovation prospects in a desirable location, Polvarth Lodge stands out as an attractive investment opportunity or dream home project.
