House For Sale £950,000
Gogland Manor is a charming detached, period property, believed to originate from the 15th century farm which was sold from the Cruwys Estate in the late 17th century. Notably for a property of this age, the house remains unlisted, but it has retained its charming character features.

The sitting room/study has a high ceiling, exposed beams and an open fireplace with a woodburner and an ornately carved fire-surround; whilst the triple aspect drawing room has stained glass decorative windows, a large open Jetmaster fireplace and French doors leading out to the gardens.
The dining room is at the heart of the ground floor, with a flagstone floor, an open fireplace, an ancient wooden door leading to the gardens and ornately carved wood panelling. The light, spacious kitchen/breakfast room is accessed via the study, and is well-equipped with an electric four door, three oven Aga, electric oven and cooker and an integrated dishwasher. There is also a useful pantry/utility room on the ground floor, accessed from the kitchen, plus a boot room and a cloakroom.
