Lostwythun sits in a generous plot of over half an acre. The property is approached via a five-bar gate, leading to a large gravel driveway and a single garage.

The gardens and grounds are a real feature of the property, with many beautiful and mature oak trees throughout, creating a wonderful sense of privacy.

The rear garden is mostly laid to lawn, level, and benefits from a wraparound terrace extending across the rear of the house. To the far end of the garden lies an area of mature woodland.

Cranleigh is a picturesque Surrey village, often regarded as the largest in England, situated just south of Guildford and within convenient reach of London. It offers an appealing balance of rural character and modern convenience, with a vibrant community centred on a traditional village green. An array of independent shops, cafés and pubs lends a welcoming yet refined atmosphere.

The area is particularly well served by an excellent selection of schools, including Cranleigh School in the village, St Catherine’s School in Bramley, Duke of Kent in Ewhurst, Cranmore in West Horsley, Charterhouse in Godalming and St Teresa’s in Effingham. Guildford provides further highly regarded options, including The Royal Grammar School and Prep School, Guildford High School and Tormead.

Cranleigh and its idyllic surroundings offer a varied range of leisure pursuits, suited to both relaxed and active lifestyles. The village green provides an attractive setting for leisurely walks, while Cranleigh Arts Centre hosts a diverse programme of cultural events throughout the year.

The surrounding countryside invites exploration, with scenic walks along the Wey & Arun Canal and across the heathland and woodland trails of Pitch Hill and Winterfold, both known for their far-reaching views across the Surrey Hills Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. Water-based activities can be enjoyed at nearby Guildford Boat House on the River Wey, offering canoeing, kayaking and paddleboarding.

For those seeking more formal landscapes, the National Trust’s Winkworth Arboretum offers beautifully curated gardens with year-round appeal. Golfers are equally well catered for, with Cranleigh Golf & Country Club and Bramley Golf Club both close at hand.

In all, Cranleigh presents an exceptional village lifestyle, combining natural beauty, a strong sense of community and a rich cultural offering within an attractive and well-connected Surrey setting.
