Fern Mead, Cranleigh, Surrey, GU6

A stunning family home with a very high level of finish and interior design, this substantial modern residence is set within the desirable village of Cranleigh, just a short drive to the bustling high street. Built in 2016 as part of a luxury development, it demonstrates the finest craftsmanship, and since then, extensive upgrades and thoughtful interior design have elevated it into a home of rare quality. Impeccable attention to detail runs throughout, from the grand proportions to the bespoke finishes, while the setting, surrounded by 33 acres of protected woodland, offers both privacy and tranquility.

Occupying one of the most secluded positions within the exclusive Swallowhurst development, the property measures over 5,300 sq. ft and is arranged across three floors. A storm porch opens into a generous entrance hall, where natural light floods through the space, drawing the eye straight to the rear gardens. The heart of the home lies in the expansive kitchen, breakfast and family room. This beautifully designed space, with handmade painted cabinetry, granite worktops and a full complement of integrated appliances, is perfectly suited for both relaxed family life and elegant entertaining. Large, floor to ceiling sliding doors extend the living area onto a large terrace and professionally landscaped gardens, blending indoor and outdoor living seamlessly. A utility room provides access to the gardens and the integral double garage, while further reception rooms include a formal drawing room with central fireplace, a fitted study, and a versatile playroom. Underfloor heating enhances comfort across the ground floor and in all bathrooms.

The first floor hosts four well-appointed double bedrooms. The principal suite features a luxurious en-suite bathroom and an impressive walk-in dressing room, while a second suite enjoys its own dressing area and en-suite shower. Two additional bedrooms each benefit from en-suites and built-in wardrobes, all enjoying views across either the gardens or surrounding woodland. Bathrooms are fitted with Villeroy & Boch sanitaryware, reflecting the commitment to quality throughout.

A further staircase rises to the top floor, where a double bedroom and separate bathroom are complemented by a substantial cinema and media room. This versatile space could readily be adapted into a self-contained suite for family or staff.

Outside, the gravelled driveway provides parking for several vehicles and leads to the integral garage. At the rear, the landscaped gardens are framed by mature planting and established borders, with a large terrace for entertaining. The woodland setting to both the front and rear creates a rare sense of seclusion, despite being so well connected to village amenities.

Cranleigh itself offers the perfect blend of village charm and modern convenience. Its thriving high street is home to an array of boutiques, independent shops, cafés, and a weekly market, alongside well-known retailers. The village is a hub of community life, with annual events such as the Cranleigh Show and Bonfire Party, and cultural experiences provided by the Cranleigh Arts Centre. For a broader retail and leisure offering, Guildford and Dorking are close by, with excellent rail and road links. Families are particularly well served, with a choice of highly regarded local schools, including the prestigious Cranleigh School, as well as an array of nurseries, primary, and secondary options nearby.

This outstanding property combines elegance, functionality, and privacy in one of Surrey’s most desirable village settings, offering an exceptional family lifestyle in an idyllic woodland environment.
