Property Profile This exquisite home is a fine example of a classic thatched 1930's Frank Chown home, retaining all the appealing character features, yet having been refurbished by the owners, is ideally suited for the modern lifestyle. As soon as you enter through the distinctive oak and glazed front door the welcoming entrance hall exudes the timeless charm and elegant features that radiate throughout the property - exposed wood doors, architrave and skirting boards complementing the delightful turning staircase rising to the galleried landing. The light and neutral decorative theme creates a bright environment not normally associated with a house of this era, enhanced by skilfully installed velux windows which really let the daylight flood in. The triple aspect living room is open plan, yet divided into 2 distinct areas, with the sitting room featuring a lovely brick fireplace, with display recesses and oak mantle, complete with a wood burning stove - a wonderful focal point for the room - as well as having French doors opening to the rear terrace and garden. The dining room has a sizeable bay window offering a glorious view of the garden. The adaptable downstairs accommodation includes another reception room, currently utilised as a bedroom, with an adjacent shower room - an ideal guest suite. The stylish kitchen is equipped with an extensive range of cream units with complementing granite preparation surfaces and includes a 'County Chef' range style cooker. There is plenty of space for a breakfast table and the part vaulted ceiling with a velux window, keeps everything light and bright. The adjacent conservatory has a wonderful view and access onto the rear terrace and garden, whilst the seamless tiled floor throughout this area has zoned under floor heating to keep you cosy in the colder months. Upstairs, all 3 bedrooms enjoy impressive views over the rear gardens, with all benefitting from fitted wardrobes. Bedroom 1 features an en-suite bathroom with a modern white suite, together with a characterful eyebrow window, which also features on the landing. The family bathroom is fitted with a white suite including a substantial bath with charming brass fittings. Of particular note is the possibility of further extension (STPP), as there has been historic planning permission granted for enlargement and although now lapsed, could be reapplied for.

Garden & Exterior
Location
To the front of the property, a gravel driveway offers plenty of parking and rises to the detached garage. The front garden is mainly lawned with established hedging offering plenty of seclusion. The westerly facing rear garden are an outstanding feature of this house, offering immense privacy in which to enjoy the uninterrupted afternoon and evening sunshine.
The house is situated in an attractive, semi-rural location on the southerly edge of the village of East Horsley. The nearby village centre provides a library, banks and a variety of shops together with a railway station with a journey time of approximately 45 minutes into London Waterloo. The A3 and M25 are close by providing links into central London and both Gatwick and Heathrow airports. There is a wide range of schooling locally in both the state and private sector, whilst the county town of Guildford is about 7 miles away providing comprehensive shopping, leisue and recreational facilities. Ranmore Common is on the doorstep, as are the Surrey Hills, which provide some of the best walking, cycling and horse riding countryside in the South East of England.
The established borders are stocked with an abundance of mature plants and shrubs, whilst the substantial stone terrace which spans the rear of the house, is a lovely place to spend a sunny summer's afternoon. A detached brick built outbuilding has been converted to offer a peaceful office area, with power and light, ideal for those who work from home.
