Stovolds Hill, Cranleigh, Surrey, GU6

The Old Farmhouse is a beautifully restored wing of a Victorian country house, discreetly tucked away behind secure gates in a totally private setting on the edge of Cranleigh. Set within approximately 1.5 acres, this exceptional home blends timeless character with the ease and sophistication of modern living, having undergone a complete and sensitive renovation.

Approached via a large gravel driveway, the house immediately impresses with its elegant proportions and warm, welcoming feel. Inside, the ground floor flows seamlessly from a striking reception room with newly laid parquet flooring and period features into a spacious family room and then into a spectacular open-plan kitchen and dining area. The kitchen is exceptionally well-appointed with bespoke cabinetry, a central island and a large walk-in pantry, while a separate utility and cloakroom add practicality. Underfloor heating, new plumbing and electrics, and a high-pressure hot water system ensure everyday comfort, while every fixture and fitting has been chosen with exceptional attention to detail.

Upstairs, the first floor hosts three double bedrooms, all with individually designed ensuites, including a principal suite with its own luxurious dressing room. The second floor offers a fourth en-suite bedroom with vaulted ceilings and views across the gardens. This space benefits from an additional area, which is currently being lovingly used by a teenager as their private haven. Throughout the house, careful restoration has been paired with thoughtful upgrades to provide both charm and functionality.

Beyond the main house, the grounds unfold into a series of well-considered and beautifully maintained areas. A newly-constructed barn style pool house provides an outstanding entertaining and leisure space—featuring its own kitchen, shower room and a mezzanine-level sleepover deck—perfect for summer gatherings or additional guest accommodation. Adjacent to an air-source heat pump swimming pool and expansive stone terrace, this stylish outbuilding creates a resort-like atmosphere, made even more appealing by the inclusion of solar panels and battery storage, which keep energy costs to a minimum during warmer months.

Elsewhere on the grounds, a characterful granary has also been converted to include its own shower room and WC, and is currently used as a home office, though it could equally serve as a teenager’s den or annexe accommodation. A large workshop with power, and a separate boiler house with ample storage complete the suite of outbuildings, offering tremendous flexibility for a variety of uses. The house enjoys a rare sense of seclusion yet remains conveniently located between Dunsfold and Cranleigh, just moments from the village.

Cranleigh offers an appealing range of everyday amenities including independent shops, cafés, restaurants, an M&S Simply Food and a local leisure centre with swimming pool. Families are particularly well-catered for with numerous excellent local schools nearby including Longacre, Duke of Kent, St Catherine’s, the Royal Grammar School and Guildford High School. For more extensive shopping, dining and cultural options, Guildford is easily accessible and offers a fast rail service to London Waterloo, while road links via the A281 and A3 place Heathrow, Gatwick and central London all within reach. The Old Farmhouse is a rare opportunity to enjoy period charm, contemporary comfort and a completely private outdoor lifestyle—all in one of Surrey’s most desirable semi-rural settings.
