Goodshill House
An exquisite Georgian Grade II listed house boasting a blend of period features and modern comforts. The property has been a much loved family home for over 40 years and additional land and outbuildings have been purchased in that time. The property is set over 3 floors with the addition of a basement, providing generous and versatile living spaces amounting to just under 5,000 sq ft. To the front of the property is an original front door with long entrance hallway and stairs to the first floor. The drawing room is to one side and is a wonderfully light and spacious room with marvellous curved wall with tall windows and original shutters and feature fireplace with wood burning stove. There is a separate dining room with feature fireplace and a sitting room with inglenook fireplace and wood burning stove. The kitchen/breakfast room is an L-shape and comprehensively fitted with a bespoke handmade wood kitchen with granite worksurfaces, an Aga (which also heats the water), a double oven, space for a fridge/freezer and space for a farmhouse table and chairs. There is also a new wood burning stove. Just off the kitchen is the utility room with space for a freezer, a boot room and a good size study which has fitted bookshelves to 4 walls. Attached to the side of the kitchen is a conservatory which makes a pleasant garden room. The cellar is accessed via a door under the stairs and is a useful store. On the first floor there are 6 double bedrooms, 4 with built in cupboards/wardrobes and 3 with feature fireplaces (not in use). The guest bedroom has an ensuite bathroom. The other bedrooms share the family bathroom and the separate cloakroom. Stairs take you into the attic rooms of which there are 4 and suitable for various uses. 3 of the attic rooms have built in cupboards and one has a built in desk. There are some fabulous garden and countryside views from all windows.
Outside
The property sits in gardens and grounds of about 7 acres. There are established lawned gardens wrapping around the property. To the front there is a clipped hedge with an in and out driveway. To the right hand side of the property there is a long driveway, owned by the vendor, providing access to the carport and the old milking parlour (which is an excellent store and has annexe potential, subject to the necessary permissions). There are 2 further stores/barn/sheds in the garden and a garden store. The barn was used as a stable. There is also an updated outside toilet attached to the rear of the property. The paddock lays to one side of the garden with a double field shelter and a pretty wildflower meadow. There is a pond with fish to the rear of the property with a patio seating area and just beyond here is the former grass tennis court which is walled to one side.
There are some magnificent trees including evergreen holm oaks, a variety of fruit trees, and a small wood (mainly birch). The area surrounding the property is classed as National Landscapes (previously Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty) and there are views towards the church.
