Property description
This charming semi-detached cottage is an absolute delight! Dating, it is believed, from around 1860, this former village shop is now a most desirable home which combines an abundance of character features with all the conveniences of modern living.
Due to its previous use, many of the ceilings are higher than those to be found in most similar aged houses, providing a real sense of space as soon as you walk through the front door. An attractive wood burning stove sits in the lounge area, creating a lovely cosy atmosphere, especially during the colder months. There is also a hidden feature in this room which is not immediately obvious when you walk in - a hatch in the floor opens up to reveal steps leading down to a very useful cellar. Although the ceiling height may not accommodate everyone, it still provides a very useful area in which to store a lot of those items you need to keep out of the way - it would also be ideal for your wine collection! As well as the cellar, there is plenty of cupboard space throughout the house, something that is lacking in many newer builds.
Imagine waking up to glorious views over the nearby Common and then taking your morning shower in the en-suite before walking downstairs for coffee in the modern kitchen/breakfast room - what could be nicer? And if you are a dog owner or just fancy a stroll, there's miles of pretty countryside right on your doorstep.
What the Owner says:
When I decided to move house, I wanted to stay in the same area as I loved living here so much and I was lucky enough to find this beautiful cottage almost on my doorstep! There is a wonderful sense of community here and the countryside around here is just glorious. Having my garage a few yards up the road is an added bonus and my courtyard garden is easy to look after.
The local shop provides my day-to-day needs and if I want a greater range of shops and amenities, Cranleigh and Guildford are within easy reach. The local schools are also both nearby so it really has been a great home for my family.
