Property Profile The Garth, sits in a commanding setting at the upper end of Ashwood Road and takes advantage of its elevated position to make the most of the light, a fact which is apparent throughout the house as a whole. This elevated setting enhances the brick and tile hung elevations, all of which is undoubtedly part of what makes this such an outstanding family home. The emphasis is very much on accommodation that is beautifully proportioned, a fact that is further emphasised by the height of the ceilings and this, coupled with the undoubted practicality of the layout, makes a house that works extremely well on a day to day living basis, taking into account the needs of modern day family living. There is an excellent separation here between the formal living/ entertaining rooms and the day to day spaces, the latter of which are made up of a substantial kitchen/breakfast room with an adjacent family room which in turn leads into a conservatory that is perfectly situated for access out onto the terrace and garden beyond. The kitchen is spacious easily accommodating a large table and chairs making an ideal spot for informal dining with family or friends. The three formal reception rooms to the front of the house could likewise vary in their use but without question are very gracious principal rooms that have a wonderfully warm and inviting feel to them. A grand and wide staircase leads from the reception hall to the first floor where 4 of the bedroom are each of an exceptional size with the master bedroom have an en suite bathroom and the others vanity basins. There is also a lounge /family room on the first floor with an adjoining room (currently sewing room) which can also be accessed by a another staircase from the kitchen which gives the opportunity for this to be quite separate accommodation for a nanny or au-pair. On the top floor, there are four further bedrooms, all of which likewise have a very appealing and interesting feel to them being, as they are, of differing shapes and sizes. It is rare for a home of this stature to become available in such a quiet, attractive and central location, let alone one that offers this level of accommodation and this must therefore be regarded as a rare opportunity to acquire one of central Woking's finer period homes.

Garden & Exterior
Location
The house is approached through wrought iron gates onto a rising driveway that will easily provide parking for four cars. At the back, the garden is, without question, part of what makes this such an attractive home and is oriented to take full advantage of the sun through the larger part of the day and into the evening.
Ashwood Road is one of Woking’s premier locations, just outside The Hockering. The Garth sits in an elevated position and part of the pleasure is undoubtedly, the fact that it is within such a short walk of Woking town centre and its excellent commuter station.
The upper terrace leads down a set of steps to a middle terrace where there is an oversize chess board and this terrace in turn leads down onto the beautifully maintained lawn to the foot of the garden where there is a large log cabin (currently serving as a workshop) , summer house, greenhouse and a storage shed. ( and 3 raised planting beds - optional). The garden is beautifully secluded and private and creates a setting that one would expect from a home of this calibre and one that creates a wonderful place to sit through the Spring and the Summer months.
