House For Sale £2,675,000
A magnificent Georgian residence dating from around 1774 which is Grade II listed. The house retains many period features including cornices, architraving, fireplaces, sash windows with shutters, and a fine staircase.
The house is approached by way of a substantial driveway with steps that lead up to a beautiful pillared entrance porch which in turn opens into a beautifully welcoming reception hall with a stunning fireplace which in turn leads to many of the principal living rooms. The fabulous family sized kitchen/breakfast room undoubtedly feels like the heart of the home and has a stunning roof lantern that allows natural light to flood into this area and has a bank of windows with double open doors between which lead out onto the south-facing terrace and garden beyond.
The kitchen is beautifully fitted out with a whole range of wood units and granite worktops and includes numerous integrated appliances. Beside the kitchen is a very warm and comfortable dining room with a fireplace and floor-to-ceiling windows with their original shutters that overlook the garden. The principal drawing room is an exceptionally elegant room with a delightful bay window looking over the rear garden and a striking central fireplace. The remaining reception rooms on the ground floor are made up of a very comfortable family room adjacent to the kitchen/breakfast room, a delightful sitting room with doors out onto the rear garden, and a square bay window to the side and further to this, an excellent study.
On the first floor, there are five bedrooms and three bathrooms, the master of which has a very large en-suite as well as direct access onto a superb roof terrace which not only takes advantage of its westerly aspect to catch the afternoon and evening sun but also has a beautiful outlook over Ripley village green and cricket ground. Between bedrooms two and three there is a Jack and Jill en suite shower room while bedrooms four and five share the use of a very attractive family bathroom. On the second floor, there are e two further bedrooms and a further family bathroom.
Across the courtyard entrance to the property is a detached outbuilding that has planning permission (Guildford Ref; 18/P/00776) granted in March 2019 to convert into a separate two bed dwelling but could equally be used as a home office or gym/entertaining space.
The gardens are mainly laid to lawn, with a seating area ideal for entertaining surrounded by mature shrubs and herbaceous borders. A wall surrounds the garden offering high privacy.
