The attractive elevations immediately set the tone, with distinctive tile hanging, handsome bay windows and a tiled roof creating a quintessential Surrey appearance.

A welcoming central entrance hall provides access to the principal reception rooms. To the front are two generous double aspect reception rooms which both feature bay windows and overlook the attractive front gardens. The drawing room is particularly impressive, extending to over 19ft and centred around an attractive period fireplace, while the separate sitting room provides a further comfortable and versatile living space.

The 21ft dining room is a superb feature of the house and also enjoys a double aspect. It provides ample space for both formal dining and entertaining. A wide bay window enjoys views across the surrounding gardens and further enhances the sense of space and light.

The kitchen/breakfast room is another excellent family space fitted with a comprehensive range of cabinetry and work surfaces, together with a traditional range cooker. There is plenty of room for breakfast or informal dining, while French doors also provide a direct connection to the garden. A separate utility room and ground floor cloakroom complete the accommodation on this level.

Upstairs, the accommodation is equally impressive. The principal bedroom is complemented by a substantial adjoining dressing room and en-suite bathroom, creating an excellent principal suite with considerable potential to tailor the arrangement to individual requirements.

There are three further generous double bedrooms on the first floor, one of which benefits from an en-suite shower room, whilst the other two are served by a modern and well appointed family bathroom.

Mature trees, shrubs and planting provide year round interest, with areas of lawn and paved south facing terraces offering several places to sit, entertain and enjoy the surroundings. The mature setting complements the period character of the house beautifully and gives the property a wonderfully tucked-away feel. If a more open garden with greater areas of lawn are desired this is more than achieveble over three sides and would still maintain the gardens total privacy.
