Property description
A truly special property, with origins believed to date back to the 14th century, in a tucked away position within a rural hamlet, yet within a 10 minute drive of the A3 at Hindhead. All of the charm and character of a Grade II listed thatched, medieval timber framed cottage with the convenience of modern family life.
LOCATION
Arford is a lovely rural hamlet in the historic parish of Headley, famous locally for The Crown Inn, a charming country pub, with its gardens and a stream separated from the pub by the Arford Road! Luckily it’s a quiet road and no one minds the odd customer heading over the road with a tray of drinks. Headley village centre is within walking distance and offers a small range of shops and facilities including a doctors’ surgery with retail chemist, a newsagent, hairdresser and small delicatessen plus The Hollybush pub. High street shopping, supermarkets and main line stations can be found at Farnham,Haslemere, Liphook and Petersfield. Access to the A3, with motorway style connections to London, the South Coast and both London Airports, is within a few miles via Grayshott and Hindhead. www.headley-village.com
