East Street, Farnham, GU9

Offered to the market with no onward chain is this delightful character property, believed to have once been the old Market house in Castle Street where the florist now sits. Some of the timbers in the house have been subject to dendroecological dating with results showing some to be 500 years old. This home is located in a very convenient position just a short distance from the town centre, and having been improved upon by the present owners, this home offers comfortable accommodation over two floors. The ground floor comprises a spacious sitting room with a feature open fire, a modern kitchen/breakfast room with central island and understairs storage, a dining room that is currently being used as a bedroom, a re-fitted bathroom, and an inner hallway that provides access to the side of the property and to the driveway. There is a hatch from the dining room that leads to a fully heated cellar, equipped with power and lighting, and can be used for storage or a hobby space. Moving to the first floor there are two double bedrooms, with a built-in wardrobe to the main bedroom, and a modern shower room.

Outside

Outside to the side of the house, there is a shingle driveway that provides parking for up to three cars. A pedestrian gate leads to the rear garden. The rear garden is southeast facing, enclosed by a mixture of panel fencing and brick wall and offers a high degree of seclusion. The garden has been designed for relaxation or entertaining with a large, covered seating currently fitted out with speakers and a projector. There are flowerbeds containing mature plants and shrubs. To the very rear of the garden there is an outbuilding offering the potential to convert into a home office, studio or mini gym.

Situation

The house is extremely conveniently situated close to the centre of Farnham and is within a few minutes level walk of the wide array of shops, pubs and restaurants which the beautiful Georgian town of Farnham affords.

Farnham is a busy and thriving town situated close to the Hampshire border and is surrounded by many miles of open countryside much of it under the ownership of the National Trust including Frensham Ponds and Hankley Common.
