Tilford Road, Churt, Farnham, Surrey, GU10

A charming attached character home, believed to date from the mid 1800’s, situated in a rural position within The Surrey Hills. Driveway parking and generous garden. Offered with no onward chain.

A unique find; a character home with scope to update, improve and potentially extend STPP enjoying a rural positioning within the Surrey Hills. With acres of wood/heathland surrounding, but also only a short drive from amenities in the villages of Churt and Tilford, while the town of Farnham less than 6 miles away and the A3 a mere 3 miles away.

It is believed that the house was originally built in the 1840’s and has been owned by the current family for over 40 years during which time it has been extended and lovingly tended to, but now offers further scope for extension and improvement STPP.

It sits in a generous plot of approx. quarter of an acre, with the rear garden being largely level and extended some 120-140 ft.

To the front of the property is driveway parking for a couple of vehicles flanked by a raised flower bed to one side and a raised lawn to the other (which in time could provide scope for further parking to be created if desired subject to the usual constraints). There is a large single garage with up and over door, and access to the garden at the rear.
The front door opens into a spacious entrance porch with an internal door opening into the main hallway which has WC, stairs to the 1st floor and a back door onto the garden.

The master bedroom is a generous double with an en suite shower room (benefitting from vanity storage around the sink) and an archway to a study / dressing room with built in wardrobes. Bedroom 2 is another double, enjoying a dual aspect with built in wardrobe, while bedroom three is a single with built in storage.

The gardens are a real feature of this home, offering spacious and private grounds. The plot itself occupied approx. quarter of an acre, with the rear garden extending around 120-140 ft away from the house. Adjacent to the house is a paved patio area with a path extending around the side of the house. A step of steps flanked by walled flower beds takes you up to the larger portion of the garden. This is predominantly laid to lawn with mature trees, shrubs and hedges.
