The Street, Compton, Guildford, Surrey, GU3

Delightful character cottage in a convenient village location.

Description

Dairy Cottage, understood to date from 1898, is a charming semi detached character home with a number of retained period features including an original fireplace and beautiful stonework. The property occupies a convenient location well positioned for Guildford and Godalming as well as amenities in the village including The Withies Inn, Loseley Park Estate and the Watts Gallery.

Accommodation is well presented and great care has gone into the internal layout and design which comprises a well fitted kitchen with an adjoining conservatory forming the centre point of the cottage and creating an attractive dining room with access to the garden. Off the kitchen is also a comfortable living room with an open fireplace. The study is flexible in its use and could be utilised as a third bedroom if required. The guest cloakroom and utility room makes up the ground floor accommodation.

Two double bedrooms can be found on the first floor, both have the benefit of built-in wardrobes and easy access to a large, well appointed bathroom.

Outside, the garden is delightful, wrapping around the house with an area of level lawn. A flight of steps with stone and brick retaining walls and flower borders lead to an additional area of the garden which comprises a light orchard and provides an ideal seating area enjoying a wonderful southerly aspect. The front garden with its path to the front door is equally as attractive.
