The house sits on beautiful grounds of three quarters of an acre and boasts private mooring at the bottom of the garden on the river Wey.
The heart of this home is the beautifully appointed kitchen and orangery. Perfect for entertaining, the kitchen is equipped with top-of-the-line appliances and large central island, making it a joy to cook in. The orangery is a true showstopper, with its large glass lantern roof and walls of glass that flood the space with natural light and stunning garden views. It is the perfect spot to enjoy your morning coffee or host a dinner party with friends next to the cosy log burner.
The six bedrooms each have their own en-suite providing plenty of space for a large potentially multi-generational family. The former garage has also been converted into via separate studio/seventh bedroom with its own kitchen and shower room; ideal if you work from home or want a supplemental income.
The first-floor living room is particularly impressive, with its own private balcony overlooking the river - the perfect place to unwind after a long day.
The garden is a true oasis, offering plenty of space to play and relax with one of the highlights being the large terrace, which offers stunning views down the garden and river. Within the grounds, there is also a tool shed and separate insulated Summerhouse with electricity.
