A delightful period cottage with 18th century origins, conveniently located on Wanborough Common with scope to improve.
Description
Sylvia’s Cottage is a delightful period home with 18th century origins, later additions in the 1930's and a more recent extension in 2000. Situated in this popular and convenient position on Wanborough Common facing towards Puttenham Golf Club.The house originally formed part of Sandyknowe House Estate and provides comfortable living accommodation well suited to a family or a downsizer, yet with the scope to improve internally as well as extend (subject to the necessary planning consent).
The entrance hall leads to good size reception room with fireplace that faces the front garden. The dining room is a generous size which offers flexibility for family living, previously used as a ground floor bedroom. The kitchen faces the rear and has easy access to the garden. A shower room completes the downstairs accommodation.
Three bedrooms can be found at first floor level, the principal bedroom facing the front of the house and with built-in wardrobes. The two further bedrooms with fitted wardrobes are serviced by the family bathroom.
The property has the benefit of being conveniently located close to the A3 whilst surrounded by natural woodland. The front and rear gardens are a good size, low maintenance with a patio and flower beds, framed by both the neighbouring house and woodland ensuring privacy.
Location
Sylvia’s Cottage enjoys an enviable and delightfully private location in the heart on Puttenham Heath, close to the Puttenham Golf Club grounds.
Nestled in the highly desirable Surrey Hills, designated Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, Compton, mentioned in the Doomsday Book, remains a thriving community with its 900 year old parish church, two pubs, cricket and tennis clubs and benefiting from excellent communications including easy access to the A3.
Both Guildford and Godalming with mainline stations are within a ten minute drive providing excellent facilities including a comprehensive range of shopping, leisure and cultural amenities. There are an excellent selection of schools in the area, including Puttenham Primary, Aldro, St Catherine’s, Charterhouse and Prior’s Field.
Locally the surrounding countryside including Pilgrims Way and the North Downs are perfect for walking, riding or cycling with public footpaths and bridleways accessed straight from the property. Watts Art Gallery in Compton is just over a mile and hosts a number of exhibitions and events.
