An attractive Georgian house with a cottage, set in approximately 5.07 acres with a landscaped garden and woodland in the idyllic East Devon countryside. Freehold. Council Tax G. EPC E
SITUATION
The property is positioned in the small hamlet of Gosford with a rural feel positioned in close proximity of the popular town of Ottery St Mary. The hamlet of Gosford is surrounded by countryside and has a range of excellent walking routes, due to it being positioned not far from the River Otter.
Ottery St Mary has a wide range of shopping facilities, including Sainsbury's, and the renowned The Kings School together with a sought after primary school. Nearby is the popular Otter Garden Centre and Escot Park is within easy access. Exeter is an easy commute to the west and offers a wide range of facilities, rail links on the Paddington and Waterloo lines, access to the M5 at Junction 30 and Exeter International Airport.
DESCRIPTION
Gosford Pines is an impressive Grade II listed home that dates from the late 18th century. Having been lived in by the current owners for many years, this property offers more than 5,000 square feet of versatile accommodation arranged over three floors within easy reach of both Honiton and Ottery St. Mary.
On the ground floor are two large reception rooms, the sitting room with open fireplace and the dining room. They both feature large south-facing bay windows overlooking the landscaped gardens to the front of the property. The fitted kitchen/breakfast room has an Aga and ample space for a large dining table, while the pantry and utility room provide further space for storage and appliances. There is also a study and cloakroom on the ground floor.
The first floor has four double bedrooms, and a large spacious hallway together with two further bedrooms to the rear. The generous main bedroom has an ensuite bathroom with a corner bath and a separate shower. One further bedroom has an ensuite bathroom, while another has access to a Jack and Jill shower room. There is also a large family bathroom. The second floor offers fantastic attic storage, and whilst could be used as further bedrooms, this space would need to upgraded to be habitable.
There is a detached annexe consisting of a self-contained games room currently housing a full sized snooker table and a one-bedroomed flat which consists of a large living room with a mezzanine floor, kitchen, bedroom and bathroom. The latter provides opportunities for multi-generational living and income potential subject to the necessary consents
OUTSIDE
The property sits in approximately 5 acres and the grounds include a landscaped garden, terraced areas, far-reaching lawns, an ornamental pond, a tennis court (in need of repair) and hedgerows and mature trees providing excellent privacy. There is also a peaceful woodland to the south. A gravel driveway leads to the house and annexe and provides plenty of parking and access to the integrated double garage. Adjoining the garage is a boiler room with substantial storage and workshop space.
SERVICES
Mains electricity and water. Private drainage, and Oil fired heating.
