A picture can tell a million tales. Each stone of Thornby Lodge which dates back to 1764 will weave a tale of a steep once industrial valley turned peaceful rspb nature reserve with the River Churnet running through. Thornby Lodge stands in an elevated setting within Consall Nature Park, is surrounded with woodland and sits in a meandering garden which extends to 1.09 of an acre, like a series of rooms where in one you can sit and spot both woodland and wetlands birds, identify both by feather and song, in another you can create a magical playground folly for squeals and giggles with moss covered stone crags, a further secluded terrace perfect for sunbathing by day and to festoon with fairy lights, light the firepit and hunker down in the evening. This handsome stone built residence offers abundant accommodation which includes an open plan living kitchen, where the locally crafted timber kitchen units are topped with deep granite worksurfaces, there is both an oil fired Rayburn and conventional cooker and hob as well as integrated dishwasher and fridge, a grand dining room with fabulous open fire for celebrations, a restful living room with stone mullion bay window and log burning stove for cosy evenings, as well as a tranquil reading room and a conservatory to ease you into the day overlooking the secluded terrace, also the essential laundry room and guest cloaks. On the first floor a sumptuous master bedroom with adjoining en suite, along with three further large double rooms and a good size single provide plentiful slumber space and a luxury bathroom with deep cast iron bathtub complete with period bottle taps, heritage style sanitaryware and generous walk in shower. A private driveway leads to a generous parking area.
