West Lodge is a detached period house of character within a very desirable village setting.  Allerthorpe's popularity arises from the attractive mature and picturesque surroundings in this central part of the village and the close proximity to a wide range of locations and facilities.  The traditional original property has been sympathetically extended and modernised to retain features whilst providing modern conveniences to the well appointed accommodation.  Open fires and beamed ceilings have been retained in the generous ground floor living  areas which include a beautifully appointed open plan living kitchen enjoying views out onto the garden and open green space adjoining the property.  More recently a substantial detached garage and workshop building has been constructed to include a self contained annex which provides opportunities for multi generational living, home office/studio or potential income from holiday letting.
