Description
ABOUT THIS HOUSE
Godsfield House really is the most fabulous and very special family home. Its setting is one of utter peace and quiet and the far-reaching views are exceptional. The entire property is surrounded by glorious countryside and is nestled in amongst farm land and the wildlife. Herds of deer can be seen wandering through the adjoining fields and barn owls are a regular sight. The whole property is shrouded in a wonderful calm and serenity; it is truly magical. Tucked away at the end of a half-mile-long track, that is shared with one neighbour and the local farmer, means it is remote but not isolated.
The house was substantially rebuilt and extended in 2016, completed 2017 and is not Listed. It is light, full of character and ideal for entertaining with its open plan kitchen/ dining room that open out onto the southeast-facing terrace. There is also a south-facing terrace overlooking the pool. The interior design in every room is exquisite and tasteful; harmonious to its calm surroundings. The garden and grounds extend to just over 3 acres and there is room for a pony or two. The five-bedroom home, coupled with the two, one-bedroom annexes, tennis court and swimming pool creates the perfect home for a family.
There is existing planning permission (in perpetuity under 14/01886/FUL) for an orangery off the south-facing façade, overlooking the pool.
