Mapel Lodge Norton Manor Park, Norton, Presteigne, Powys, LD8 2EG

Property Description

Intro
New and sited in 2011, this beautifully presented two-bedroom park home occupies a generous, level plot within the sought-after Norton Manor Park, enjoying fantastic views and a desirable setting.

The home has been extremely well maintained by the current owners, who took great care when purchasing to ensure a high-quality and comfortable property. It benefits from insulated walls, underfloor insulation, and roof space insulation, helping to create a warm and energy-efficient living environment.

Inside, the accommodation is deceptively spacious and thoughtfully laid out, featuring LPG gas-fired central heating and uPVC double glazing throughout.

Outside, there is a lovely sun terrace to the front, along with enclosed gardens to the rear, a detached garage, and driveway parking.

Location
Norton Manor Park is situated on the outskirts of the charming village of Norton, surrounded by the beautiful border countryside.

Norton is a popular and welcoming community, making it an attractive choice for families, retirees, and anyone seeking a lifestyle change. The surrounding landscape features rolling hills, picturesque views, and abundant opportunities for walking, cycling, and outdoor recreation.

Norton is just a short drive from the vibrant market town of Presteigne, which boasts a variety of independent shops, schools, cafés, and cultural events. Nearby Knighton offers additional amenities and access to the scenic Offa’s Dyke Path.

For a broader range of shopping, dining, healthcare, and leisure facilities, the larger market town of Leominster is approximately 15 miles to the south, while the historic cathedral city of Hereford lies around 25 miles away.

Accommodation
Entering through the side door nearest the driveway parking, you're welcomed into the kitchen — a well-appointed and fully equipped space featuring a good range of cupboards and drawers, an inset electric oven with gas hob over, integrated fridge-freezer, washing machine and dishwasher, and a stainless steel sink and drainer positioned to overlook the side of the home.

A glazed door leads through to the L shaped open-plan dining and lounge area. The dining space is generously sized, with a large archway opening into the lounge — a full-width room with large double-aspect windows, flooding the space with natural light. A focal electric fireplace adds warmth and character, while patio doors open onto a full-width decked sun terrace, perfectly positioned to take full advantage of the stunning outlook across the lake and surrounding countryside — a truly enviable setting within Norton Manor Park.

Moving back through to the inner hallway, you’ll find the main entrance hallway with uPVC half-glazed front door.

The property offers two generous well appointed double bedrooms, both with fitted wardrobes, cupboards, and dressing tables, providing excellent storage. The principal bedroom benefits from an en-suite shower room with a modern white suite and panelled shower cubicle. The second bedroom features a lovely tall window overlooking the side garden.

The main bathroom is also well equipped, with a modern white suite comprising a panelled bath with shower over, vanity unit with wash basin, WC, and part-tiled walls.

Gardens
The home enjoys a splendid position within Norton Manor Park, occupying a generous and level plot. To the front of the home is a lovely sun terrace, accessed directly from the living room via patio doors, with additional steps leading up from the driveway — an ideal space to sit and enjoy the surroundings. A lawned area with mature shrubs and bushes creates an attractive frontage.

To the left of the home, a brick-paved driveway leads up to the side entrance and detached garage, bordered by established shrubs and bushes, with mature hedging providing privacy to the side and rear.

A private, full-height pedestrian gate gives access to the rear garden — a lovely, enclosed space featuring productive vegetable beds, low-maintenance gravel areas, and a slabbed patio, ideal for outdoor seating. Continuing around to the right-hand side of the property, a formal entrance is accessed via paved steps leading up to the main front door.

Parking
Ample parking is provided to the side of the home, along with a single garage featuring an up-and-over door and side pedestrian door. The garage also benefits from power, lighting, and a useful utility space.
