An utterly stunning example of an exceptional family home in a hugely private Hook Heath setting, that's within easy reach of the hubbub of central Woking. Encompassed by idyllic grounds circa 0.5 acre, behind its distinguished double-fronted facade an extensive interior offers an abundance of versatile space, combining a rich heritage palette and tastefully chosen contemporary styling.
Discreetly set back from the road, this superbly presented detached residence is sympathetically styled throughout to an impeccably high standard and offers plenty of opportunity to be extended further still given previously approved planning.
Instantly generating a refined and stately feel, distinguished double doors open onto an entrance lobby that leads the way to a grand central hallway, hinting at the sense of space that lies within. Contemporary yet elegant, a beautifully light and bright main reception room and adjoining garden room combine to give a highly impressive and welcoming introduction, setting the tone for the attention to detail that flows throughout each room. A classic grey and white colour scheme lends the perfect backdrop to a focal point working fireplace, while the triple aspect garden room with crisp white wood shutters and French doors to the terrace adds an idyllic outlook.
With a refined palette and a fireplace of its own, the formal dining room is a truly sophisticated space to entertain friends. A trio of perfectly chosen glass pendants lights the room, and the generous proportions of the rich wood floor easily accommodate a piano, while a leaded glazed door makes it easy to step outside for after dinner drinks. An additional double aspect family room along with a large triple aspect study add a fantastic amount of versatile accommodation to the expansive footprint of this Hook Heath home, offering ample flexibility to cater to your own needs.
Perhaps the heart of this home, a charming open plan kitchen and breakfast room is a great place to come together as a family. Fully fitted with a wealth of traditionally styled wood cabinets and pale countertops that wrap-around to form a breakfast bar, its considered layout provides ample storage and workspace. A superbly sized utility room supplies a separate space for your laundry appliances and a convenient cloakroom and store room complete the ground the floor.
Natural light tumbles in over the central staircase through a gracefully tall window and filters through the first floor where five notably sized bedrooms echo the heritage colour scheme. A double aspect principal bedroom is a peaceful retreat and offers a touch of luxury with a fabulous en suite bathroom that includes a glass-framed waterfall shower and a hugely contemporary freestanding bathtub. Equally well-presented, four further bedrooms each produce an ideal amount of family accommodation as well the chance to create a further study. A stylish family bathroom and additional shower room offer every convenience.
This exceptional family home has ample potential to be extended and reconfigured. A new principal suite could include a dressing room, large en suite with a side wetroom, along with a seating area with French doors looking out over the garden and landscape. Downstairs could be transformed to have a spacious family room, and a larger kitchen opening onto a triple aspect dining area.
Behind the mature shrubs of a walled garden the double-fronted facade of Hightrees with its charming covered doorway offers a picture perfect first impression. A sweeping driveway and garage have off-road parking for several vehicles.
Step out from the ground floor onto a secluded stone paved terrace that stretches across the full width of the house to give a truly enviable spot to enjoy al fresco meals or simply relax with the weekend papers while you admire the stunning west-facing garden. An established lawn bordered by lovingly planted flowers reaches out in front of you bordered by a marvellous selection of tall firs, hedgerows and trees that give a lovely amount of privacy as well as vibrant greenery throughout the year. Tucked away to the side, a large greenhouse and vegetable garden area is ideal for those with greenfingers.
