Park Road, Haslemere, Surrey, GU27

Mount House is situated in arguably one of Haslemere’s most sought after addresses and offers plentiful amenities on its doorstep including the Haslemere recreation ground a short walk away, the High Street and the town’s mainline railway station.

A superb family home in an elevated position above the town, the property has well-balanced accommodation throughout and is light and bright throughout the day. The south-facing gardens are just under half an acre, and boast a swimming pool, a sun terrace (which extends across the rear of the property), and private, flat gardens.

The property benefits from a spacious kitchen/breakfast/family room added by our clients in 2009, this versatile space takes in the wonderful gardens views and offers direct access onto the terrace and gardens beyond. The kitchen is very well appointed with a large island under a lantern, plentiful storage and Neff appliances which include two ovens, a microwave, steamer, warming drawers and an induction hob. A utility/kitchen is located to the rear of the kitchen. Further to the ground floor is a sitting room - again providing direct access to the terrace, pool and gardens - with parquet flooring, and is adjacent to the dining room. At the front of the property is a study off the entrance hall, again with parquet flooring. The main downstairs cloakroom is off the hall and has tiled flooring.

To the first floor, the five bedrooms are all doubles and enjoy their own aspect around the property. Several have built in storage, and two (including the principal bedroom) have an en suite bathroom. Further are a family bathroom, and a large airing cupboard with Megaflo.

Mount House is accessed directly from Park Road, with plentiful space for parking in addition to the integral double garage. The principal garden is located to the rear of the property, and in addition to the amenities therein referenced above, the gardens are well stocked with mature trees and shrub borders. From the terrace, one can access the majority of the gardens down a set of stone steps or via a gentle slope through the trees via the water feature, which is an attractive addition, and located in the middle of the garden immersed in the landscape. To the rear is a gazebo from which to enjoy the gardens and quiet situation.
