The Fairfield, Farnham, Surrey, GU9

Description

A lovely spacious and recently refurbished architecturally interesting, detached family property in this convenient and sought after south Farnham road. The property, which is believed to have been built in 1906 by the Anderson family of Waverley Abbey House, displays some features of the Arts and Crafts period including swept valleys, dark Elm weatherboarding and solid oak flooring, possibly deriving from their link with the renowned architect Sir Edwin Lutyens.
