House For Sale £625,000
As you pull in past the wooden gates that allow you to shut this home off from the rest of the world you are met by a striking period property with its three dormer windows to the front hinting at the space that lies beyond. A large shingle driveway in front of the house offers up parking for multiple vehicles and a metal framed garage gives you storage for bikes and gardening equipment. As you step through the front door and into the wide entrance lobby you will truly have no idea about what awaits you and the captivating charm this wonderful family home is about to present.
The ground floor offers up three receptions located around a kitchen which is literally the heart of this home. The first reception room to the left is used a dining room by the current owners. However the flexible nature of all these spaces means it could easily be used a home office, snug or play room if so desired. The original living room on the right is a bright welcoming space with windows to the front and rear. A central fireplace means you can enjoy natural warmth throughout the winter and creates a lovely ambience. The galley style kitchen behind is a blend of old and new with modern feature wallpaper and tiles being offset by a traditional wooden beam across the ceiling. Teal cupboards provide ample storage around a space for a washing machine and dishwasher and the 5 burner Rangemaster oven offers a touch of style and the perfect vessel to create meals for family and friends that will live long in the memory. At the end of the kitchen a glazed door leads to the utility room which provides access to the front and rear of the property. This space is the perfect location for fridges, freezers and tumble dryers. To the rear is the latest addition to this property, an enormous garden room. With two patio doors to seamlessly link the house to the external garden terrace this is an incredible space to entertain in or simply relax with cup of tea or something stronger. As a garden room this is a non heated space and so the addition of a wood burner in the future would make it a living area that could be enjoyed with a higher degree of practicality throughout the year.
Upstairs are four double bedrooms to retire to at the end of a long day. Bedroom one has the benefit of an en suite bathroom with walk in shower. The family bathroom is a modern space with white suite and shower over the bath.
It is in the back garden that this home really makes your jaw hit the floor. Facing south to ensure you enjoy the best of the sun throughout the year a large wooden deck wraps around the back of the house and hosts the perfect spot for a BBQ. The garden then splits into four distinct levels. An area of well maintained lawn drops down to level 2. Split between lawn and planted beds there is a large bench seat in front of a fire pit in the middle of an area of pea shingle. Next door a large log cabin is currently used as a garden shed but would a great play house for kids as well. Stepping through to level 3 the garden widens to almost double in width. An area of artificial grass creates a low maintenance area that currently hosts some raised vegetable beds. Behind the hot tub is the entrance to one of the largest and best equipped garden buildings we have ever seen as agents. At over 850 sqft it is larger than some three bedroom homes and currently hosts a fully equipped professional gym, full sized pool table and still has room for a sofa to relax on at the far end. The possibilities for this space are endless and it is a bonus that is so rarely found in properties in this price bracket and is one of the features that truly sets this home apart.
As you walk out of this space you can't believe things will get better but they absolutely do. Beyond there is a swimming pool built into a wooden frame with heat pumps to ensure the water can be heated and used throughout the year before you step down onto a wooden deck that is over 100sqft in size! With its own garden bar this space is the perfect summer entertaining spot and is big enough to host all the guests you could ever want to invite. Perhaps the most charming part of this deck though is the fact the River Wey runs along the boundary of the property. This allows you to sit with your morning coffee or evening gin and enjoy the tranquil sounds of the river meandering past.
