Description: Goldstone House at 6 Oakhill Cottages is a welcoming detached modern house of brick and block construction, with part weatherboard elevations, double glazed windows throughout all beneath a pitched tiled roof. The property is set back from Peasmarsh Road off a private lane with a good size garden that enjoys views out over its own side paddock and the surrounding countryside.

The property is approached over a gravel unmade private lane providing access to gravel driveway providing off street car parking for a number of cars as well as access to the garden. The property is entered through an oak central front door that enters into a light oak frame glazed entrance porch that leads into a generous hallway. A set of oak double doors lead from the hall through into a light triple aspect large living room with French doors opening out to the rear garden and benefiting from a central feature brick fireplace (non-working).

A connecting door leads from the living room into the kitchen / breakfast room which is also accessed from the hallway. The kitchen has double aspect windows including French doors leading out to the rear garden. The kitchen is fitted with cream shaker style units with wooden worktops, enamel sink and drainer, ceramic hob with extractor hood above, double electric oven, integrated dishwasher, washing machine and fridge/ freezer.

A cloak room /WC is also accessed off the hallway along with a second reception room that is currently used as a dining room but could also be used as a second sitting room or home office.

Split level stairs lead from the entrance hall up to a first-floor landing, off which is the master bedroom with dressing area and ensuite shower room/WC and triple aspect windows looking out over the garden and countryside beyond. The property benefits from a further two generous double bedrooms and a family bathroom with modern white suite including panel bath, walk in shower, wash basin and close coupled WC.

Externally at the front of the property is a post and rail fence with roses planted behind while a five-bar gate provides access to gravel parking area at the front and side of the house. At the rear of the house is a paved terrace seating / entertaining area looking over an attractive lawn garden with a variety of flower beds interspersed with a number of planted fruit trees and at the rear a timber frame garden store shed.

To the side of the house is a level field set to pasture with stock fencing which has access from both the lane passing 6 Oakhill Cottages but also has access from the lane that pass 7 -10 Oakhill Cottages. We have measured the field using Pro Map mapping to measure 0.852 acres and this when combined with the house and garden (0.146 acres) provides a total plot size of 1.03 acres.

The property is presented to a good decorative condition throughout, and benefits from an air source heat pump and under floor heating as well as a wealth of character features.
