The market town of Godalming has a picturesque and historic High Street, where you will find an excellent array of shops, bars and restaurants. The town is surrounded by countryside whilst being just a stone’s throw from the cobbled streets of Guildford. Godalming began as a Saxon village and today has many historic homes that make up the property landscape in the area.
One such property is The Lodge, a three bedroom home steeped in history and bursting with charm and character.
For Sale – The Lodge, Godalming – £895,000
Period charm and modern-day facilities combine intriguingly to create this exceptional home that should suit many a taste. Built from Bargate-stone and traditional brick, with a Bargate-stone front wall that shields the house from the private off-street parking.
The accommodation is a little unconventional in its layout with the bedrooms being on the ground floor, and a wide spiral staircase leading to the first-floor living spaces – making it an ‘upside-down house’. What was originally a garage having since been converted to a ground floor office/study space and an extension created above to form an additional reception room accessed either from an external staircase or directly off the kitchen.
The ground floor layout currently provides three double bedrooms with the principal room being accessed via a spacious dressing room. We feel there is enough space on the ground floor to potentially re-arrange the accommodation to create a fourth bedroom.
Speaking of The Lodge, Jonathan Rhodes-Smith, Partner of Burns and Webber Godalming, said;
“The gardens are a wonderful feature, tiered and heading up the side of the escarpment, yet providing secluded flat grassland areas for sitting out in the summer months and enjoying the views across Godalming. Children that love the outdoors will love the opportunity for exploration and hide & seek!”
The Lodge is for sale exclusively with Burns & Webber Godalming at £895,000
