House For Sale £1,000,000
A beautiful Victorian 3 to 5 bedroom semi-detached cottage (requiring some updating and decoration), with versatile, adaptable accommodation and views to the Chantries across the Royal Grammar School Chilworth playing fields, set in grounds in excess of 1.5 acres benefiting from formal gardens, stream, wooded area, pond, four car garage, small stables, well house, greenhouse, and gazebo. Price guide: £1,000,000 freehold
On the market for the first time in almost forty years, this property offers a rare opportunity to acquire a versatile three to five bedroom semi-detached Victorian cottage, in need of updating and redecoration, with over 1.5 acres of gardens and woodland with stream, pond, views to the Chantries across the Royal Grammar School Chilworth playing fields, well and well house, orchard area, vegetable patch with green house, gazebo, four car garage and small stables.
The grounds are a major feature and appeal of the property with so much to offer an enthusiastic gardener or naturalist. The formal garden area or woodland are a magnet to various wildlife including many different bird species such as pheasants, woodpeckers, herons, jays, goldfinches, owls, buzzards, and the occasional mallards (to name a few), plus mammals such as deer and badgers occasionally. All of this with the unspoilt views of the hills behind.
The house boasts a multitude of versatile and adaptable rooms currently arranged as three bedrooms and a bathroom upstairs, with a dining room, two studies, a kitchen and a breakfast room/utility room, conservatory, garden room, hall and self-contained shower room, and a large sitting room with beams and feature brick open fireplace, on the sprawling ground floor.
The property benefits from open chimneys and a plentiful supply of logs from the grounds. There is some secondary glazing but the property would be advantaged by repair or an upgrading to some of the windows. There is scope to improve the property and potential to rebuild the garage with perhaps an upstairs, subject to normal planning permissions and building regulations.
Location: Shalford is 1.5 miles from Guildford centre. The cottage is within walking distance of the village with its selection of local shops including the popular `Snooty Fox café, two public houses - The Seahorse and The Queen Victoria ¿ plus post office, convenience stores, takeaways, barbers, off-licence, car servicing, etc, and the station with trains to Guildford and hourly trains to Gatwick (Dorking, Reigate, Redhill). 40 mins by car to Gatwick.
