Detached house for sale in Markwick Lane, Loxhill, Godalming, Surrey GU8

Marepond Copse is a stunning barn style modern house, that was built in 2016. Since purchasing it, our clients have refined the house, taking it to 'another level' including the fitting of extensive
fitted bespoke furniture much of which is by Neville Johnson.

The focal point of the house is the magnificent vaulted and galleried library/sitting room with its full height windows bringing in so much light to the house. On the ground floor are two further reception rooms and a very useful bedroom suite. The kitchen/breakfast/family room has been fitted with bespoke units and has a pantry.

On the first floor, which is approached up a fine oak staircase, there is a good balance of bedrooms and bathrooms. There is also a secondary staircase leading back to the hall.
Marepond Copse is full of light, has limestone flooring with under floor heating and enjoys a lovely outlook from all angles over the charming gardens.

Adjacent to the house is a double barn style garage with stairs leading up to a very useable loft room. Attached to this is a machinery store.

Marepond Copse is approached through a pair of impressive electric oak gates with the cherry tree lined gravel driveway leading down to the front of the garaging and house. This area in turn has been beautifully brick paved. One of a matching pair of decorative gates leads through to the
courtyard garden with a terrace abutting the house. This part of the garden has been professionally landscaped with a central four tree pergola, surrounded by well-stocked beds incorporating lavender, David Austen roses, iris, tulips, aliums, cremata and hydrangeas. The second matching gate leads to the side of the house with a substantial bed of roses and clematis in addition to acers and a stone wall defining the boundary. To the rear of the house is a
substantial terrace having stone retaining walls and well-stocked flower and shrub borders above.

The remainder of the gardens are predominantly laid to lawn with a couple of mature feature oaks. On the western side is an Alitex greenhouse bordered by a vegetable garden. Extending up the centre of the gardens are a series of steps, culminating at the top with a circular seating area, taking full advantage of the country views. Extending above this to the top boundary is a light copse area which in the spring is a mass of bluebells, having beyond neighbouring woodland.
