Brighton Road, Godalming, Surrey, GU7

Occupying an elevated position overlooking Crownpits Green and nestled on Brighton Road, this charming Bargate stone cottage combines timeless period character with a host of thoughtful modern improvements. Beautifully presented throughout and benefiting from full double glazing, underfloor heating to the kitchen and exceptional landscaped gardens, the property offers a rare opportunity to acquire a character home that effortlessly balances charm, comfort and practicality.
The front door opens into an inviting sitting room where a striking cast iron fireplace provides a handsome focal point, framed by exposed brickwork and bespoke shelving. A large sash-style window floods the room with natural light whilst enjoying attractive views towards Crownpits Green, creating a warm and welcoming atmosphere that perfectly reflects the character of the home.
Beyond, the accommodation flows naturally into a generous dining room with attractive wood flooring and useful built-in storage. Ideal for both everyday family life and entertaining, this sociable space connects seamlessly with the kitchen and enjoys direct access to the garden via a charming stable door.
The adjoining galley-style kitchen is fitted with a range of classic shaker-style cabinetry complemented by contrasting work surfaces and tiled splashbacks. Thoughtfully designed to maximise storage and preparation space, the room also benefits from underfloor heating, adding a touch of everyday luxury and comfort.
Arranged over the first floor are two beautifully presented bedrooms. The principal bedroom enjoys a dual-aspect outlook, allowing natural light to pour in whilst offering delightful views over the surrounding greenery. The second bedroom is equally well-proportioned with walk in cupboard and overlooks the rear gardens, making it ideal as a child's room, guest bedroom or home office. A well-appointed family bathroom serves both bedrooms and features a panelled bath together with a separate shower enclosure.
A particularly valuable feature of the property is the spacious lower ground floor room which is light and airy. Beautifully finished and currently utilised as a guest bedroom and occasional workspace, this versatile area offers a wealth of possibilities including a home office, hobbies room, gym or additional accommodation depending upon individual requirements.
The property has been significantly enhanced in recent years, including the installation of replacement double glazed sash windows to the front and rear elevations together with replacement double glazed windows to the side elevations, ensuring the cottage now benefits from full double glazing throughout whilst retaining its period appearance and charm.

Outside, the gardens are undoubtedly one of the property's standout features. Beautifully landscaped and arranged across a series of terraces, they combine areas of lawn, mature planting, colourful borders and winding pathways that rise through the hillside behind the house. A substantial decked terrace provides an exceptional place for outdoor entertaining, relaxing with family and friends or simply soaking up the remarkable elevated views across Crownpits Green and the surrounding rooftops of Godalming.
At the uppermost level of the garden which gets the summer evening sun creating a fantastic space for having those evening drink, discreetly screened by trellis and newly installed fencing, a garden shed provides excellent additional storage. Surrounded by mature woodland and enjoying an exceptional degree of privacy, this elevated section of the garden creates a wonderfully peaceful retreat with an almost treehouse-like feel.
To the front, a charming cottage garden sits behind a traditional stone wall, whilst gated side access leads directly through to the rear garden.
This is a home that offers considerably more than first meets the eye; beautifully presented accommodation, flexible living space, stunning gardens and an enviable position close to the heart of Godalming, all wrapped up within a characterful period cottage setting.
