A beautifully presented four bedroom detached cottage offering over 1950 sq ft of bright, immaculate accommodation backing onto woodlands with 10 acres of land in total and excellent equestrian facilities. Situated in an enviable position within the quintessential hamlet of Walliswood, just on the southern side of the Surrey Hills.
The Pheasantry offers a wealth of history dating back to the turn of the century and has been meticulously updated throughout by the current owners, now offering a wonderful blend of period charm with modern style. The accommodation begins with the entrance porch before opening through into the hall providing useful outerwear storage and access to the downstairs cloakroom. A particular feature of the property is the fabulous open plan kitchen/breakfast room with solid oak flooring, characterful brick exposed feature wall and a brand new log burning stove creating a warm cosy ambience, perfect for winter evenings. The kitchen itself has recently been fitted with a selection of floor to ceiling contemporary gloss units complemented by stylish under unit lighting, a full range of integrated appliances including a wine fridge and a fully powered breakfast bar island. The stunning triple aspect living/dining room with underfloor heating has been designed to be the heart of the home offering the ideal space for entertaining guests with plenty of space for a large suite and a dining table with chairs. This is a lovely bright room overlooking the back garden with plenty of natural light flooding in through the bi-folding doors which directly open out onto the terrace. Completing the ground floor accommodation is the study which could alternatively be used as a children's playroom if required.
A solid oak staircase with a bespoke wine rack curls up to the first floor landing which in turn provides access to all the upstairs accommodation. As you can see from the measurements, the triple aspect master bedroom suite is an impressive 18'5 ft with picturesque views across the garden and further benefits from an open plan en suite with free standing bathtub. Bedrooms two and three are both excellent doubles with the second benefiting from built in storage. The third bedroom is a good-sized single which could alternatively be used as a dressing room if required. The family bathroom has been beautifully updated in keeping with a property of this style, fitted with an impressive walk-in rainfall shower, free-standing bath and vintage tiling.
Another excellent advantage is every room has Sat TV and CAT 6 ethernet access.
Outside
Towards the front of the property, there is a gated sweeping gravel driveway offering parking for a number of cars and access to the workshop/garage and adjacent log store, both offering power.
The landscaped garden is yet another magnificent benefit to the property which has been left to naturally blend with the adjacent woodlands creating a real sense of pure tranquillity. Predominantly laid to lawn, the garden wraps around the property with several sections of terrace ensuring the garden can be enjoyed throughout all times of the day and offers the ideal space for al fresco dining or entertaining in the warmer months. The whole garden is enclosed creating a sense of privacy with an inviting array of trees, mature shrubs and well-stocked beds. Another interesting feature is the original well.
Paddock/stables Another excellent benefit is the 3 ½ acre paddock and brand new stables offering excellent equestrian facilities. In addition, the property is situated next to a bridle pathway offering miles of open countryside right on the doorstep.
