Whitmead Lane, Tilford, Farnham, Surrey

Hidden gem requiring modernisation in a park-like setting of about 5 acres on the outskirts of Tilford.

Foxglade is a versatile three-bedroom home with over 2,100 sq. ft. of light-filled and flexible accommodation in need of total modernisation, and with excellent potential for extensions, subject to the usual planning permissions.

The porch and airy central reception hall with its stairway and tall glazed window, flows into a large dual-aspect sitting room with a wood-burning stove and French doors to the south-facing terrace. Alongside is the 22 ft. formal dining room with its stone-built fireplace surround and hearth, which opens via sliding glazed doors into the conservatory with its southerly aspect and panoramic views. The kitchen has a white three-oven AGA, a good sized separate utility room, a pantry and a shower room. The ground floor facilities are completed by a generous store room which opens to the attached single garage.

The roomy first-floor landing branches off onto a family bathroom and a trio of bright bedrooms with elevated far-reaching views of the grounds, all of which enjoy well-sized fitted storage cupboards and wardrobes.

The grounds are a particular feature of the property, amounting to about 5 acres in total and comprising a multitude of mature and specimen trees and expansive lawns with various shrubs and planting. There is a paved terrace beside the home enjoying the warm southerly aspect. A sweeping tree-lined private driveway flows up to the house itself, giving access to the tarmacadam forecourt and attached garage. There are several derelict
outbuildings dotted around the grounds. Please note the first part of the access is shared.
About 5 acres.
