Property Profile Homelands sits in a beautifully green and pleasant setting at the elevated end of a quiet and highly sought after road on the outskirts of Send village. The house sits nicely back from the road behind tall hedging which, right from the start, gives it an uncommon feeling of seclusion and privacy adding to the overall feeling that this is an uncommonly tranquil setting. The house has been a hugely enjoyed home for our clients during their time there and has been beautifully maintained and cared for and now very much offers the best of both worlds in terms of character that is now combined with all of the expectations that come with today's family life. Throughout the house, rooms which are beautifully proportioned are also extremely light and airy, many with a fabulous view out over the beautiful rear garden and all of which work extremely well together. The size of the rooms and the layout also makes for a good deal of versatility depending upon the needs of the incoming buyer. On the ground floor, a large welcoming reception hall with a solid wood floor leads to all of the principal living rooms, arguably the most impressive of which is the drawing room which is of an exceptional size. In the centre of the room, there is a hugely attractive open working fireplace with a stone surround while double opening doors lead out onto the front garden as well as onto the rear terrace and the main garden beyond. Off the drawing room, there is a very large family room also with a fireplace and with attractive white wooden plantation shutters, a room that could equally well be used as a formal dining room if preferred. To the front of the house is a study, again with a solid wood floor and white plantation wooden shutters. To the rear of the house the superb kitchen/breakfast room has a set of timber bi fold doors that open from the kitchen out onto the rear terrace. The kitchen is fitted with a full range of wooden units and granite worktops and has a large stainless steel 5 burner gas range as well as a 4 oven Aga. Above the kitchen, a large atrium allows natural light to flood into this very warm and comfortable informal living space that works extremely well for the family. Upstairs, the bedrooms are equally comfortable and well proportioned, notably the master bedroom at the back which has a wonderful open outlook across the beautiful gardens and woodland beyond. To one side, there is a large walk-in wardrobe while the en-suite bathroom has been superbly refitted with a beautiful contemporary white suite including a large free standing bath and a 7ft walk in shower, fully tiled with white stone on both the floor and walls. The guest bedroom overlooks the front of the house and likewise has a very nicely fitted en-suite which our clients created, while the remaining two bedrooms are likewise both very comfortable doubles. The family bathroom has also been updated and again has a very attractive contemporary white suite. A great deal of thought and attention to detail has gone into the presentation of the house to make a very spacious and comfortable family home which works extremely well on a practical basis but also has a great deal of charm, warmth and character to it.

Garden & Exterior
Location
Homelands sits in an elevated position and is beautifully tucked away behind tall hedging and an electric gate. The gate opens onto a large gravel driveway which leads along the side of the house to a substantial area of parking to the rear where there is also a detached double garage and single car port. The rear garden is undoubtedly a large part of what makes this such a wonderful family home, not only as the area in total extends to approx 0.7 of an acre but also as it is extremely private and takes full advantage of the semi rural nature of the setting. At the back of the house there is a substantial sun terrace which makes a wonderful spot for outside dining, leading onto a large lawn, enclosed on all sides. At the foot of the garden, a gate leads into a fenced off area of woodland that our clients have allowed to run fallow, which makes a wonderful play area for children and previously housed a treehouse. Within two minutes you are walking along the calm and tranquillity of the River Wey. A fifteen minute walk along the river brings you to the wonderful gastro pub The Olive Tree in Sutton Green, or a 5 minute walk takes you to The New Inn.
Potters Lane is a quiet and highly regarded road on the outskirts of Send village but still within easy reach of the local shops and within a short drive of Ripley village with its local pubs, restaurants and a substantial village green that is purported to be one of the largest in England. For those times when you require something more comprehensive, both Guildford and Woking town centres are within a short drive of the house; the former of which has a wide and eclectic array of bars, cafes and restaurants that line the historic cobbled High Street as well as three theatres including the state of the art entertainment venue ‘G Live’, while Woking town centre has a wide array of shops and eateries as well as a multi screen cinema and the New Victoria theatre in the Peacock’s centre. Woking is renowned for its commuter station that runs a superb service into Waterloo and closeby there is easy access to the A3 and the M25. The wider area is surrounded by miles of open countryside which make for stunning walking and cycling opportunities; there are many fine educational options in the area, both private and state, as well as a number of superb golf courses.
Agents Note Current planning permission exists for a substantial single storey extension to the back of the property; a 1½ integrated garage to the front of the property in order to move the driveway to the front of the house; and a loft conversion creating a 5th bedroom with a dormer window at the front and double doors and a Juliet balcony to the back - the plans of which can be viewed on the Guildford Borough Council website.
