Set within the private estate of Garston Park, you will find this converted 18th Century coach house full of character. Surrounded by beautiful gardens and land totalling 5.5 acres.
OVERVIEW A superbly presented detached home having first been built in the 18th Century as a coach house and more recently been extended to offer excellent accommodation, reflecting modern living with many original features including the original clock, clock tower, Victorian conservatory and exposed ragstone walls in the entrance hall.
The property has landscaped gardens of about 1.5 acres with a swimming pool and tennis court, and offers a further 4 acres of land perfect for an equestrian centre. A private driveway leads you to the front of the property where there is parking for several cars and with a triple barn garage to the rear. Overlooking open countryside and gardens designed by the famous Gertrude Jekyll, an influential British horticulturist, the property is one of a small group of houses, which once formed the heart of the Garston Park Estate.
ACCOMMODATION On the ground floor there is a welcoming entrance hall at the centre of the property, a stable door leads onto a bespoke kitchen with vaulted beamed ceiling, this leads onto a second living area, games room and utility room. Also on this floor you will find the formal drawing room with an open brick fireplace, dining room which was part of the original coach house, double bedroom with en suite and the study. This area of the house could be adapted to form an annex.
An oak staircase leads to the first floor, the master suite offers views over the gardens, en-suite bathroom and walk in wardrobe. There are five additional double bedrooms, as well as a family shower and a family bathroom. There is also further possibility of extending the upstairs living accommodation.
LOCATION The property is situated in an idyllic location yet is still within easy reach of Godstone village and surrounding towns. Godstone is home to a delightful country pub ‘The Bell’, amongst other local shops and eateries. There is a local Vineyard producing and selling local wine along with a petting zoo and farm. A visit to the local farm shop and their traditional butchers is a must.
Oxted and Redhill main line train stations are just a few miles away along with bus routes and easy access to the M25 close by. Godstone Village school and Cygnets nursery, catering for children between the ages of 3 and 11, is situated further down the road. For older children the Hawthornes and Oxted school are also within easy reach of the property.
