Relaunched on the market through Savills in Guildford (01483 796800) at a guide price of £5.75m, illustrious Woodhatch in Hascombe Road, Godalming, is fittingly described as ‘a country house with stature, symmetry and superb equestrian facilities in the heart of the Surrey Hills’.
Built mainly between the World Wars, the 10,000sq ft house has been sumptuously enlarged and modernised by its current owners. Set in some 40 acres of lovely gardens, orchard, wild meadow and paddocks, the main house has accommodation on three floors, including four reception rooms, an orangery, a kitchen/breakfast room, eight bedrooms and five bath/shower rooms. The international-standard equestrian facilities are spectacular and include an American barn with 14 loose boxes, a huge outdoor sand school, post-and-railed paddocks and a spacious indoor school—the latter hidden from view in a fold of the surrounding hills. And with easy access to the M3 and the national motorway network, there’s no need to worry about having to reverse a massive lorry up a winding lane when you meet a tractor coming the other way, says selling agent Phillippa Dalby-Welsh.
The guide price for Woodhatch is £5.75m. For further information please contact Savills on 01483 796800.
