Newgrounds, Godshill, Fordingbridge, Hampshire, SP6

Graylands stands in pleasant grounds of just under 0.2 acres, in an idyllic 'off the beaten track' location, with glorious views across the New Forest National Park. This charming four bedroom character former Foresters cottage has been extended over the years to provide extremely versatile accommodation. Approaching the house from the driveway, the front door opens to the entrance lobby. To the right a doorway opens to the kitchen which has an original fireplace (not working) and a window that faces to the front. Continuing ahead, a door opens to the living/dining room. The living area has a beamed ceiling with a full height brick fireplace with open grate. From here the living room continues and incorporates the dining room across the back of the house, with two sets of sliding doors that take in the view and which open onto the rear garden. The office also has a door out to the garden. Also on the ground floor is a bedroom and a wet room. The first floor accommodation can be accessed via two separate staircases and comprises three bedrooms of which one is a single, with the other two being doubles and one having a balcony. All bedrooms have glorious views over the adjoining paddocks and further views of the open Forest. There is also a family bathroom. Outside there is a parking area to the front for several cars and double gates lead to the substantial garage. The rear garden is laid as lawn that gently slopes away from the house. Within 50 yards of the house there are various pathways that lead onto the Forest that provide beautiful walks. Graylands has been in the same ownership for the last 50 years and has more recently been used as a very successful holiday let. The house would now benefit from some cosmetic updating.
