House For Sale £1,250,000
Handsome character home in the heart of the sought after village.
Description
Dating from circa 1890, Hope Cottage is a characterful family home which has been sympathetically styled whilst retaining the character and charm one would expect of a property from this era.
The downstairs accommodation flows extremely well lending itself to entertaining and modern family living. The country style kitchen features traditional style cabinetry, an original stove with exposed original brickwork, a Belfast sink and a Rangemaster cooker. A particular feature is the oak and glass dining room extension with a vaulted ceiling and Velux windows and access to the paved terrace. Off the kitchen is a well appointed utility room with separate guest cloakroom.
Off entrance hall is a sitting room with a log burning stove and bespoke bookshelves and a family room which is versatile in its use. The memorable drawing room enjoys wonderful proportions and a cast iron open fireplace, this leads to the conservatory with lovely garden views and access to the terrace.
On the first floor, there are four bedrooms and two bathrooms. The principal bedroom is well fitted with wardrobe storage which also conceals a neatly-designed en suite shower room.
Outside, the paved terrace spans the rear of the property with direct access from the conservatory and dining area, a perfect area for outdoor dining and relaxation. The rear garden is well screened and private, framed by mature hedging and predominantly made up of a large area of level lawn. At the end of the garden is a home office or work shop with an attached store, an ideal space for working from home.
To the front of Hope Cottage is a pleasant garden area, generous sized gravel driveway and access to the double, open bay car port.
Location
Hope Cottage enjoys an attractive semi rural setting in the sought-after village of Hambledon and is surrounded by The Surrey Hills Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. It has easy access to Hambledon Common and the thriving community run shop, cafe and Post Office. Hambledon village also has an active cricket and football club, a nursery school, a church and a welcoming country pub.
The historic market town of Godalming is approximately 4 miles away and offers a wide selection of high street and independent shops, Waitrose supermarket and several coffee shops and restaurants. The regional centre of Guildford is approximately ten miles distant and provides a comprehensive range of shops, restaurants and recreational facilities, which include Guildford Spectrum, Surrey Sports Park, G Live and the Yvonne Arnaud Theatre.
Mainline stations at Witley and Milford offer fast and frequent train services into London/Waterloo.
The surrounding countryside is perfect for walking, cycling and riding. Hydon’s Ball, Hydon Heath and Winkworth Arboretum are close by and are all owned by the National Trust. Golf and tennis can be found at The West Surrey Golf Club.
The area is well served by an excellent range of schools, which include Barrow Hills, Aldro, St. Hilary’s, Charterhouse, Prior’s Field, Cranleigh, St. Catherine’s, Guildford High school and The Royal Grammar School.
