Description
From the majestic wrought iron gates that sweep open onto an extensive gravel driveway, to the iconic turret, gables and ubiquitous bay windows, this Victorian mansion creates an undeniably breath-taking first impression.

The double doors of the lobby lead the way to a truly exceptional central entrance hall that immediately engenders a sense of grandeur with its magnificent oak staircase, heritage tones and the rich herringbone design of an outstanding oak floor. Classic white dado rails and subtle cornicing lend a crisp contrast, while the easy flowing layout opens onto a wealth of space in which to relax and entertain.

Featuring turret sash bay windows and glazed doors to the gardens, a beautiful triple aspect living room has been thoughtfully created to capture all the grace and elegance of a bygone age. A working fireplace is a welcoming focal point and a lovely amount of natural light tumbles in from each direction, while a first class engineered oak floor extends across its notable 35ft dimensions. With further bay windows and a working fireplace of its own, across the hallway the harmonious dining room retains its original layout and has ample versatility to cater to your own needs.

With a vaulted ceiling, roof lantern and a fabulous wall of floor to ceiling apex windows, the triple aspect family room/library combines with a sleek Poggenpohl kitchen to create a contemporary twist to the period surroundings. Outstandingly light and bright, the clean line design of each area enhances the sense of space while the abundance of perfectly placed windows allows the vibrant planting of the flowerbeds outside to add a colourful backdrop. Stretching out along the full depth of the house, the family room/library is a calming space to spend time together with wide bi-fold doors opening onto the landscaped gardens. Its enviable proportions flow down to a large dining area where French doors make it easy to step out onto the patio for al fresco meals. Creating a hugely sociable and fluid feel this wonderful open plan space continues into the superior kitchen with its abundance of stone grey cabinets. Miele appliances provide every convenience, a downdraft extractor adds to the minimal design, and bespoke square edged Corian countertops wrap-around giving ample workspace. A separate utility room and cloakroom complete the layout of this marvellous ground floor.

The masterly renovation of this majestic mansion continues upstairs where six double bedrooms pepper the upper two storeys. Wonderfully lit by the bay windows of the turret, the first floor principal bedroom produces a hugely sophisticated feel with its warm neutral tones, picture rails and cornicing. A walk-in dressing room lends plenty of storage without encroaching on the aesthetics of the room, and an en suite shower room is a superb finishing touch.
The large central hallway leads the way to three equally well-presented bedrooms, and whilst one has a dressing area and en suite shower room of its own, the additional two share a refined family bathroom that echoes the consistent design themes of the home and includes a bathtub and walk-in rainfall shower. Two impressively large further double bedrooms sit on the top floor offering ideal family accommodation and versatility. Both benefit from either a stylish en suite shower or luxurious steam room, along with storage within fitted wardrobes.

Accessed via the gardens or an enclosed hallway from the family room/library, a generous self-contained studio apartment with an en suite shower room sits above the integral double garaging producing plenty of flexibility for guests, teenagers or those who work from home.

Brick pillared tall iron gates immediately lend a sense of privacy and exclusivity to this prestigious Victorian mansion taking you onto a gravel driveway that together with the integral double garaging has off-road parking for numerous vehicles.

As enchanting as the property itself, the enclosed gardens that encompass the house are notably planted to give glorious outlooks and vistas to each of the ground floor rooms. An established and expansive lawn is bordered by the varied colours and shades of mature photinia, topiary, Acer and Olive trees, while well-chosen espaliers lends seclusion. Landscaped beds are currently full of springtime tulips, and the broad paved patio that reaches around the majority of the residence supplies idyllic spots to escape from the hubbub of daily life while you sit back and admire your surroundings.

The property located on the west side of Horsell in what is considered a prime location offering convenient access to both Woking Town and Horsell Village. Woking Train Station in under 1 mile. Woking benefits from a full range of shopping and leisure facilities as well as the fast train link into London Waterloo.
