PROPERTY PROFILE The major portion of a stunning period home of exceptional character, built in the 1920s by the master builder W G Tarrant and sitting at the far end of a tranquil cul de sac setting in a prime position within a short walk of Woking town centre and station. Tarrant House is a delightful period home built by W G Tarrant who is perhaps best known for the development of St Geoge’s Hill in Weybridge and the Wentworth Estate. His houses have a very distinctive feel and were crafted with huge attention to detail with an emphasis on well proportioned rooms and a stunning use of joinery, much of which can still be seen in Tarrant House today. From the start the house has an enormously appealing sense of space with a fabulous, oak beamed reception hall that looks into the beautiful sitting room. A rich, oak strip floor runs through the whole of this space creating a stunning main living room for the house. To one side is a substantial open fireplace while the original panelled walls were refurbished by the current owners and at one end a bay window has doors that lead onto the rear sun terrace Of the sitting room the kitchen dining room is a dramatic and hugely versatile part of the house that works equally well for day to day family life as it does for entertaining. A substantial roof lantern floods the kitchen with light and beneath which is more than enough space for a large dining table, this whole space opening onto the covered loggia that overlooks the garden. The kitchen is beautifully fitted out and features handmade smoked oak cabinets, Carrera marble worktops and Miele appliances. The large, adjacent family room is open plan to the kitchen which further adds to the attraction of these two rooms from a family perspective. From the reception hall a stunning oak staircase with turned spindles leads to the first floor where the master bedroom has a delightful view over the garden as well as its own en suite dressing room and a limestone en suite shower room. At the other end of the landing there are two further double bedrooms which share a family bathroom. On the top floor the bedrooms are equally comfortable, the larger one of which has a superb Juliette balcony that gives the room a wonderful open outlook over the garden while to one side is a dressing area. The second room on this floor is also a double while the two share a Jack and Jill shower room. Off the second of the two there is a further eaves room while this whole space could easily from a self contained annex or teenager suite as it has its own kitchenette.

GARDEN & EXTERIOR At the front of the house a sweeping driveway allows for the parking of several cars. The superb rear garden is undoubtedly part of the pleasure of this stunning home and takes full advantage of a south orientation to catch the sun throughout the day. A large lawn leads from the back of the house to a central, circular water feature from where steps lead down onto the remainder of the garden. At the far end there is a secluded wooded area while to one side of the garden there is a privately owned side access that leads to the front of the property. LOCATION Friars Rise is an exceptionally private and sought after location where the small number of houses rarely come to the market. Sitting on the favoured south side of Woking it is within just a ten minute walk from the town centre and station which runs a superb commuter service into Waterloo. Houses that offer this level of seclusion and privacy combined with such a central and yet peaceful position are few and far between to say the least all of which makes this something of a unique proposition. The centre of Woking is going through a program of radical regeneration that is seeing it take on a far more contemporary and interesting feel and is only set to improve further over the coming few years. The recently opened New Victoria Square development brings a huge Marks and Spencer to the town centre along with a Hilton Hotel. There are excellent schools in and around Woking in both the private and state sector along with a string of very highly regarded golf clubs.
