Nestled within the serene surroundings of Godshill Wood, Godshill Wood Cottage is a unique and charming period property that seamlessly blends character and modern comfort.

The property features flexible living spaces, including a separate, self-contained two-bedroom annexe. This addition is ideal for those seeking a home that accommodates multigenerational living or offers potential for holiday letting. Surrounded by the open New Forest yet conveniently close to essential amenities, this residence offers a rare combination of tranquil living and accessibility.

Dating back to the early 1800s, the cottage sits in an enviable semi-elevated position with picturesque views over Furse Close Copse and Long Ground Copse. Set within approximately 0.26 acres of beautifully landscaped gardens, the home retains much of its original charm, showcased through features like ledge and braced internal doors with Suffolk latches, stained glass leaded light windows, exposed ceiling beams, and a refurbished fireplace in the main sitting room.

The main cottage provides versatile living spaces, including a spacious principal sitting room, a light-filled garden room, a well-equipped kitchen, two double bedrooms, a dressing room/study, and a family bathroom. Enhancing the property's appeal is an adjoining two-bedroom annexe, complete with its own sitting room, shower room, and kitchenette, ideal for multi-generational living or as a potential income source.

Located within the Western Escarpment Conservation Area of the New Forest National Park, the property enjoys immediate access to open heathland, woodlands, and scenic trails perfect for walking, cycling, and riding. The nearby villages of Woodgreen and Godshill offer community shops, popular pubs, and village halls. Additionally, Godshill benefits from its proximity to Sandy Balls Holiday Centre, which features leisure facilities, a restaurant, and a shop.
