Attractive five bedroom house in an elevated position within the popular Wonersh Park.

Description

Stagbury is an imposing five bedroom family home dating back to 1936, believed to be one of the first houses built in the old deer park of Lord Grantley, now Wonersh Park, a highly sought after location within the historical village of Wonersh. The property has attractive elevations and is well screened by mature gardens.

Approached via a delightful front garden graced by an old magnolia and beech, upon entering Stagbury you are immediately struck by the solidity and mellow brickwork of this attractive home. A generous old oak door opens into a light hallway. The ground floor is well laid out for modern family living – a triple aspect sitting room, bright and spacious with an open fireplace that draws beautifully is perfect for relaxing. Across the hallway a second large reception room, currently used as a study, also benefits from an attractive feature fireplace as well as a bespoke Mark Wilkinson desk and wall units. The fabulous Smallbone kitchen with its larder cupboard draws you into a more recently added dining and casual sitting area with an impressive vaulted ceiling allowing access to the rear terrace and garden via French doors.

A central staircase from the hall takes you up to a first floor with its four double bedrooms, large family bathroom, and airing cupboard. On the landing at the top of the staircase a glorious window brings light and lovely views of the back garden and the trees behind into the house. On the second floor a spacious principal bedroom with en suite shower room and built in wardrobes enjoys views across Wonersh Park to Chinthurst Hill and beyond. There is a large eaves cupboard for storage off the landing.

Set back up an attractive gravelled driveway Stagbury offers extensive parking for a number of cars as well a charming standalone garage. The back garden is very private, offering a large lawn framed by mature shrubs and apple trees, complemented by a spacious terrace ideal for bbq’s and entertaining.
