Property Profile A stunning period home, parts of which date back to 1600. It is now beautifully restored and extended to provide character while satisfying today’s expectations. Period features include oak beams and timbers in several rooms, an inglenook fireplace, and a stable door in the kitchen. Sympathetic extensions over the years provide versatility including additional space over the former stable block which can be used as a separate annexe but works equally well within the main body of the house. On the ground floor, a reception hall leads into the principal drawing room. This is a hugely attractive double aspect room with an oak floor and a wonderful inglenook fireplace that houses a wood burning stove. Together with the original timbers and beams, this creates a very comfortable and warm room. From here, an archway leads to the dining room with similar beams and flooring and which overlooks the side terrace through double opening leaded light doors. From the dining room a door leads to the kitchen/breakfast room, part of the former stable. This is the more modern part of the house so consequently has a very different feel to the older part of the property. This beautifully proportioned room has ample space for a large family table and chairs and is fitted out with a comprehensive range of cabinets and a range of integrated appliances. The stable door leads out to the walled garden while a further door leads through to the light and airy tripleaspect family room. This has glass doors leading out to the garden and a staircase that rises to the first floor which comprises a double aspect study/dressing room, a double bedroom and a shower room. On the ground floor in the older part of the house there is a further bedroom/study, a large French cottage style bathroom, a utility room with gas boiler, and a walk-in coat cupboard. Stairs from the entrance hall lead to further bedrooms and an additional bathroom. The master bedroom is double aspect and has views over the front and back gardens. Along the landing, there is a large and beautifully fitted family bathroom with claw foot bath, while further along the landing, there are two additional double bedrooms, both with exposed original timber beams that give them a delightful feel. All in all this is a unique and beautifully presented period home which works extremely well for practical day-today living.

Garden & Exterior
Location
Outside, there is a separate brick garage and gravel driveway that can accommodate up to 4 cars. The garden that surrounds the house was designed by an award-winning garden designer and features hugely attractive yet distinct areas, vistas, several places to sit, a greenhouse and vegetable plots. The front garden is a classic cottage garden with carefully chosen hardy perennials and sits behind a white picket fence and holly hedge. Outside the kitchen and family room at the back of the house, there is a walled garden containing a large paved area, a lawned garden and steps up to a circular fire pit seating area. To the back of the garden room, there is an additional seating area around a stone circle with a small fountain. Outside the dining room, there is yet another seating area within a brick circle and beside this is a lawn. These gardens are well concealed from neighbours and roads, and offer wonderful tranquility.
Situated in a quiet and highly regarded part of Woking within easy reach of the town centre and a short walk from the main line station that runs a fast and frequent service to Waterloo. Several different train lines stop there offering easy access to London and elsewhere. In addition, there is a useful Heathrow coach service. Woking town offers a good range of bars and restaurants, good shopping, especially at The Peacocks Centre which also houses the New Victoria Theatre and the multi-screen cinema. Close by there is a good choice of schools, golf at Hoebridge and elsewhere, a David Lloyd Sports Club and an excellent leisure centre with pool. Woking is surrounded by large tracts of open countryside which are ideal for walking and cycling, and a short drive from the house will take you into the heart of the Surrey Hills and a string of beautiful English villages.
