Hascombe Road, Godalming, Surrey, GU8

This beautiful house sits within a private fold of the Surrey Hills, approached through its own grounds and set against open countryside. Rebuilt in recent years behind its historic façade, it combines the presence of a late 19th-century country house with the clarity and scale of a contemporary plan.



The approach is deliberate. A long driveway winds through mature trees, passing a lake before arriving at a broad turning circle in front of the house. The sense of space is immediate, with over 14 acres arranged as formal gardens, woodland and open lawn, all positioned to take in uninterrupted views across the surrounding landscape.



Inside, the ground floor is laid out laterally, with high ceilings and a central staircase forming the architectural focus. The principal reception rooms run along the garden frontage, with the drawing room oriented to capture long views across the grounds. A separate media room sits away from the main entertaining spaces, while the kitchen and family rooms form a substantial open arrangement to the rear, with full-width glazing opening directly onto the terrace. The kitchen is centred around a large island and supported by a fully equipped prep kitchen and utility spaces, allowing it to function at both domestic and larger-scale level.



Beyond the main living areas, a dedicated indoor pool complex forms its own wing, with a pool of approximately 16 metres, spa, changing facilities and direct access onto the terrace. This sits alongside a study, formal dining room and additional reception rooms, giving the ground floor a clear distinction between formal and informal use.

Upstairs, the principal suite occupies a significant portion of the first floor, arranged with two dressing rooms, a large bathroom and a private roof terrace overlooking the gardens. Four further bedroom suites are positioned across this level, with additional accommodation on the second floor, bringing the total to eight bedrooms in the main house.



Ancillary buildings extend the flexibility of the estate. A garage block includes a self-contained annexe, while further outbuildings provide a gym, pavilion, studio and estate maintenance areas. This allows for guest accommodation, staff use or independent working spaces without interrupting the main house.



The gardens have matured over more than a century and remain a defining part of the property. Established specimen trees, formal lawns and extensive planting are set around a lake and ornamental pond, with a network of paths moving through the grounds. A tennis court and pavilion sit within the landscape, positioned away from the house to preserve the setting.



Hascombe sits on the southern edge of Godalming within the Surrey Hills Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. Winkworth Arboretum is close by, while nearby villages such as Hambledon and Chiddingfold offer well-regarded pubs and local amenities. Godalming, around 2.5 miles away, provides day-to-day shopping and a direct rail service to London Waterloo in under an hour, with faster connections from Guildford. Farnborough Airport is within reach and the area is known for its established schools, including Charterhouse, Cranleigh and St Catherine’s.
