The warm tones of a solid oak floor run underfoot continuing into a breathtaking formal dining room where the magnificence of double height vaulted ceiling with a bounty of beams engenders an undeniable sense of history and heritage. An open gallery mezzanine above adds to the stunning sense of height and voluminosity, timber framed windows with their feature wrought iron detailing entice sunlight to filter freely in from the east, west and south, and a further inglenook fireplace and wood burner lend a quietly understated yet majestic focal point.
Across an inner hallway where modern French doors and full height windows connect to the views and gardens, and leads you to a modern quadruple aspect barn-style drawing room filled with natural light. Its considered use of apex windows extends up to another superb double height ceiling. French doors make it effortlessly easy for daily life into the gardens, immaculate beams have been sympathetically incorporated and a full height chimney breast of exposed brickwork houses an open fireplace that subtly enhances the considerable proportions of this hugely inviting space further still.
The thoughtful inclusion of a study produces a peaceful place in which to work from home. When it comes to spending time together an impeccable kitchen/breakfast/family room will be a regular destination for the whole household. South facing outlooks supply stunning and distant backdrop and a choice of doorways gives you every excuse to step outside.
Bespoke and supremely well-appointed for modern family life, the sleek clean lines of the kitchen feature an Everhot range, Quooker boiling water tap and notable array of integrated appliances. However, you will undoubtedly find an excuse to sit with a morning coffee or nightcap in the cosy breakfast/family room area before the glow of a wood burner set within a stunning third inglenook fireplace. A separate utility/boot room and cloakroom complete the ground floor.
Upstairs, the multitude of vaulted ceilings, beams and brickwork are echoed throughout a layout that gives plenty of flexibility for a growing family and features rooms with original wattle and daub panelling.
Enjoying the privacy of its own wing, a principal suite begins with a generously large walk-through en suite/dressing room that continues up to a mezzanine level with a freestanding roll top bath. This bedroom enjoys stunning views extending south over the countryside.
With their own private access to the gallery that overlooks the dining room, two additional bedrooms share an en suite bathroom, while the equally impressive third double bedroom benefits from plenty of storage within a wall of fitted wardrobes. A deluxe wetroom in shades of green is easily accessible by all.
Step outside
Sequestered mid way along a private drive/bridleway that immediately evokes a coveted measure of privacy, a handsome facade of hung tiles, timber framed walls and statuesque chimney stacks emerges at the end of one of two driveways. All around you the greenery of the 2 acre grounds envelops the house in a scene of rural serenity and rolls gently towards the horizon hidden from the world outside. Mature hedgerows border the land and the elevated location on a subtle rise provides far-reaching views over the undulating Surrey Hills, and in the opposite direction to the South Downs, both being Areas of Outstanding Natural Beauty.
Transformed by the current owners, each and every aspect of the different areas of the grounds imbues the very essence of archetypal English country gardens. The admirably restored Victorian walled garden with its pergola, paths and planting conjures a sublimely restful escape, yet could if preferred be transformed into tennis courts or a swimming pool (STNC).
Al fresco dining can be enjoyed on a newly created terracing that adds a seamless extension of the house and has the relaxing sounds of a fountain pond, while the setting allows both the interior of the property and the expansive lawns to proffer uninterrupted panoramic south facing vistas across the neighbouring farmland. With tasteful landscaping and wonderful dimensions, the secluded south facing terracing entices you to take a stroll past colourful flowerbeds to the hidden treasure of a sunken woodland Dell or the tranquillity of a timber summerhouse. Follow the gravel pathways and you’ll find an array of thoughtfully placed and presented seating spaces to sit back, recline and admire your surroundings from.
Budding gardeners will relish the chance to grow their own produce in the brilliantly large renovated brick-based greenhouse of an established vegetable garden, or take a stroll and pick fresh fruit from the already productive orchard. A duo of large brick-built garden stores is also on hand.
Outbuildings
Ideal for guests, staff or subject to consent as an Air B’n’B, a converted granary is picture perfect both outside and in. It has two bedrooms with en suite shower rooms and access to a private garden.
A further converted single storey barn sits conveniently in the main courtyard, with a delineated mezzanine floor. This separate annexe is currently divided into a studio and substantial games room, both with shower/cloakrooms.
Both these outbuildings have potential for a wide range of uses, including self-contained independent living for older family members, hobby rooms, work from home space, or extra ancillary accommodation.
Further workshops, a barn store and garden outbuilding are practical and flexible spaces with the opportunity to be tailored and renovated to cater to your needs. In the case of the walled garden sheds, these might for example provide a pool house and plant room.
All changes to the outbuildings, annexe/studio and granary are subject to necessary consents.
