Property description

Originally a cottage forming part of the Godolphin Estate sold by the 10th Duke of Leeds, Gwedna House is a beautifully presented and extremely well finished five bedroom country house located in a rural setting providing light and spacious accommodation on both floors.
The property, believed to be originally built around 1780, with later additions, is approached via a single track. Electric gates lead into a spacious driveway parking area and in turn into a well constructed and impressive three bay car port with storage potential above. From here a pathway leads to the front door of the property passing the utility outbuilding with power and water and double length garage currently used as a workshop.
Upon entering the property there is a spacious entrance hallway with doors leading to the majority of the living accommodation on the ground floor. Immediately on your right is a boot room / WC. The hallway leads to the impressive sun room, kitchen / breakfast room and the dining room with a staircase rising to the first floor accommodation.
The impressive kitchen / breakfast room has been completely refitted and remodelled to an exemplary standard by the current vendors and now provides a delightfully spacious and warming reception area for a large family. The kitchen comprises of a range of matching base and wall mounted English Rose units with an island. It is complimented with granite work surfaces, a Belfast sink and an electric Leisure cooker with Range Master extractor hood above. There is also an integrated dishwasher and fridge freezer.   The boiler is housed in its own cupboard unit.
The Garden room has also been rebuilt by the current vendors in recent months and now provides a comfortable area for relaxing and enjoying the impressive views either across the gardens or over the surrounding countryside. There are French doors fitted within the garden room which open onto a large deck, which faces due south.
The dining room provides a more formal area to entertain and features some panelling and a Morso multi fuel stove. From here a doorway leads to the recently added extension where a sitting room has been created with French doors leading into the gardens. A secondary staircase in the corner of this room leads to the separate bedroom suite above, which provides impressive en suite facilities and a balcony located off the bedroom which provides the most impressive views across the gardens and surrounding countryside.
At first floor level there are four more spacious bedrooms, with two of them providing en suite facilities, together with a further shower room WC.
Externally, the gardens and grounds are another impressive part of this property and have had the same level of care and attention given to them as the house itself. The majority of the gardens lie to the west of the house and are mainly laid to lawn with a wide range of shrubs and fruit tree's including Apples, Pear, Cherry, Plum and Mulberry. There are also several rows of raspberries, gooseberries and rhubarb. There is a working well hand pump currently used to water the gardens and a greenhouse with a raised bed area.
Within the grounds there is a detached double garage currently used as a workshop which could be converted, subject to the necessary permissions required, into additional accommodation.
