Description
Lemon Bridge Cottage is a wonderful period home with origins dating from circa 1650 with later additions in the 1800’s conveniently located in this popular village with a super garden.
Downstairs accommodation comprises a welcoming entrance with original Quarry tiles leading to two well balanced reception rooms. The sitting room is a very cosy room with large inglenook fireplace and a small corner library. The high specification kitchen designed is beautifully appointed with a central island, butler sink and a range cooker. To the rear of the kitchen is a useful utility room which then leads to the sun room conservatory and on to a home office / study and a WC.
Three generous sized double bedrooms, a family bathroom and separate WC can be found on the first floor. The principal bedroom is a good size and benefits from an en suite shower room and built-in storage.
Lemon Bridge Cottage sits in a generous plot of approximately 0.2 acre framed by post and rail fencing. The gardens have beautifully manicured and are extremely private with a wonderful backdrop of mature and specimen trees. There is a pleasant terrace wrapping around the house, a raised seating area and a charming summer house. A notable feature at the bottom of the garden is the wooden gate leading directly on to the River Tllingboune.
Lemon Bridge Cottage is accessed via electric wooden gates on Shalford Lane leading to a secure gravel driveway with parking for two cars. There is a large, timber framed workshop and storage off the drive that has good flexible future use.
Location
Originally formed of two medieval hamlets, Shalford today is the quintessentially semi-rural English village with its pond, cricket green, Post Office store, coffee shop, pub and collection of pretty cottages.
Less than two miles away, Guildford town centre offers a comprehensive range of shopping, cultural and leisure amenities in addition to the main line station with services into London from around 35 minutes. Shalford has its own station on the Tonbridge – Reading line which is only one stop away from Guildford and also offers access to Gatwick Airport.
Guildford lies on the northern edge of The Surrey Hills AONB and this attractive property benefits from having access to miles of walking and riding country almost ‘on the doorstep’. The North Downs Way long-distance path passes through nearby Chantry Woods whilst pretty riverside walks offer attractive alternative routes into Guildford or Godalming.
There is a very good selection of schools in the area including, Holy Trinity, The Royal Grammar School, St Catherine’s, Guildford High School, Charterhouse and many others.
