Striking Five Bedroom Detached Requiring Updating
Standing with timeless pride since 1827, Felling Lodge is a striking detached residence that exudes historical charm and character. A rare opportunity for the discerning buyer, this grand home offers not only generous proportions—boasting over 3,400 square feet of living space—but also the chance to restore a piece of local heritage to its former glory.
From the moment you arrive, the home's character is evident. Set behind a gated driveway and surrounded by mature gardens to the front, side, and rear, Felling Lodge is ideally positioned for access to local shops and amenities as well as for access to transport routes and services.
Inside, the home reveals a layout that caters perfectly to both family life and entertaining. Three expansive reception rooms, each brimming with potential, provide flexible living and social spaces—ideal for everything from formal dining to relaxed gatherings. There is a spacious fitted kitchen to the ground floor as well as a generously sized store room and garage.
The conservatory to the side further extends the living space, offering views of the surrounding gardens.
Upstairs, five generously sized bedrooms await, offering ample space for a growing family, guest accommodation, or even a luxurious master suite with walk-in dressing areas and en-suite potential.

ONLINE AUCTION NOTICE
I hereby acknowledge and confirm the following:
Once placed, my bid cannot be withdrawn and will stand until 2 hours after the auction closes. My bid may be accepted by the seller at any time before the close of the auction. I have read and understood the terms of the auction and my bid is placed accordingly. I have read and understood the legal pack applicable to this property and I understand that I am bound by the special conditions contained within. If my bid is successful at any point from now until up to 2 hours after the auction closes, I shall be bound by the lot terms and conditions as advertised online.
The auction will continue to run if there is a bid within 5 minutes of the closing time. After 5 minutes without a bid, providing the reserve price has been met, the highest bidder will be successful. If there is another bid within 5 minutes of the last bid, the auction countdown timer will be restarted for another 5 minutes to allow further bidding. This system makes it fairer for all parties involved and prevents last second bidding.
Please bid in good time before the end of the auction; delaying your bid to the last seconds may disadvantage you if your connection slows or you lose internet connectivity. It is the bidder's responsibility to ensure the bid has been lodged with the auctioneer. The auctioneer accepts no responsibility for bids that are not received or are received late, and reserves the right to reject any bid without notice.
* Generally speaking Guide Prices are provided as an indication of each seller's minimum expectation, i.e. 'The Reserve'. They are not necessarily figures which a property will sell for and may change at any time prior to the auction. Virtually every property will be offered subject to a Reserve (a figure below which the Auctioneer cannot sell the property during the auction) which we expect will be set within the Guide Range or no more than 10% above a single figure Guide.
By setting a proxy bid, the system will automatically bid on your behalf to maintain your position as the highest bidder, up to your proxy bid amount. If you are outbid, you will be notified via email so you can opt to increase your bid if you so choose.
If two of more users place identical bids, the bid that was placed first takes precedence, and this includes proxy bids.
Another bidder placed an automatic proxy bid greater or equal to the bid you have just placed. You will need to bid again to stand a chance of winning.
