The layout of both the house and gardens has been cleverly arranged to follow the sun throughout the day. Terraces, lawns and seating areas offer either sunshine or shade depending on the moment, making the outside space as versatile as the interior. A sunken spa, covered entertaining area with outdoor speakers and lighting zones, and beautifully maintained gardens create an environment that works just as well for lively gatherings as it does for peaceful afternoons.
The grounds themselves are exceptional. Rolling lawns extend towards open views, while a pretty stream winds the periphery of the garden. The large double garage provides, not only the perfect space to house your pride and joys, but excellent storage with additional space on either side, and a separate outbuilding, currently used as a gym, offers flexibility as a studio, office or hobby room.
Inside, the layout remains equally adaptable. In addition to the main bedrooms upstairs, a ground-floor bedroom sits opposite a contemporary wet room, offering an ideal guest suite or flexible living arrangement.
What makes this home truly special, however, is the atmosphere it creates. It is a place to retreat to, somewhere to clear the mind, plan the future, or simply watch the changing light across the fields. A house that invites you to slow down, yet still keeps you well connected to the wider world.
Ockley sits in one of Surrey’s most picturesque pockets, surrounded by rolling countryside and woodland yet well placed for access to nearby towns. From the front door, there are wonderful walking routes leading towards the iconic heights of Leith Hill, with quiet lanes and bridleways connecting to Coldharbour and Forest Green. Local favourites such as The Plough in Coldharbour and The Parrot at Forest Green provide excellent country pub dining, while Etherley Farm at the end of the lane offers fresh local produce straight from the surrounding farmland.
Despite its peaceful setting, the property remains well connected. Dorking and Cranleigh are both within easy reach, providing a wide range of independent shops, cafés and everyday amenities. Ockley railway station offers direct services towards Horsham and London via connections, while road links allow straightforward access to the A24 and beyond.
Families are particularly drawn to the area for its excellent selection of schools, both state and independent. Combined with the surrounding countryside, thriving village communities and convenient transport links, it is a setting that offers the best of rural living without sacrificing everyday practicality.
