Located on a beautiful, west-facing plot of approximately 0.5 acre, on Broadham Green, near Oxted, The Old Cottage is a Grade II* listed family home, offering versatile accommodation with plenty of original features dating back to 1420.
This attractive home was originally a single-chamber hall house, however there have been many additions over the last five centuries and it now oozes character features with modern, family living accommodation and high-speed internet (StarLink).
Set back from the village green and approached via a gravelled access, this pretty home is framed by stunning grounds, which were designed by Chelsea Gold medallist, Roger Platt.
Electrically operated, five-bar gates open to a spacious driveway, with parking for numerous cars, along with a detached, 2-bay barn garage (2 cars), which also benefits from a self-contained annexe / home office, complete with kitchen and bathroom. There is a pedestrian gate, with a block-paved path, leading to the front door, via beautifully stocked, mature flowerbeds, with an attractive rose pergola.
The accommodation flows freely over two floors with 5 reception areas, most notably the stunning dining hall, with its impressive fireplace/ log-burner. Other receptions rooms include the study, living room, snug/ family room, and conservatory/ sunroom. The country style kitchen overlooks the rear gardens and boasts an AGA. There is also a separate utility/ boot room, a larder, and a downstairs cloakroom.
There are two separate staircases to first floor, with all six bedrooms. The principal bedroom has built-in wardrobes and an en-suite ‘Jack n Jill’ bathroom. The bedrooms are well balanced with 3 bathrooms in total, servicing potentially 6 bedrooms.
Reference has already been made to the beautifully landscaped grounds, which are wonderfully private and secluded. There are two patio areas with steps up to a large lawn with mature beds and specimen trees. This fabulous home also benefits from an outdoor, heated swimming pool, adjacent to which is another large outbuilding, which is divided into a gym/ office, a workshop and a pool/ summer house.
Boadham Green is a quiet yet convenient hamlet with an excellent local pub and dining, called The Haycutter.
