A delightful three bedroom period cottage with 18th century origins, conveniently located on Wanborough Common.

Description

Sylvia’s Cottage is a delightful period home situated in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. It is in a popular and convenient position on Wanborough Common facing towards Puttenham Golf Club. It has the benefit of being conveniently placed to easily access both Guildford and Godalming, whilst surrounded by natural woodland. There are woodland walks literally outside the gate.

The house was once part of the Sandy Knowe House Estate and has its own large, front and back gardens which wrap around the property. It has 18th century origins, later additions in the 1930's and a more recent extension in 2000. This provides comfortable, adaptable and spacious living accommodation, with scope to extend (subject to the necessary planning consent).

The entrance hall leads to good size reception room with a fireplace that faces the front garden. The dining room is a generous size which offers flexibility for family living. The kitchen faces the rear, with a utility room and separate downstairs shower room/WC to the back. Another WC/shower room completes the downstairs accommodation.

Three bedrooms can be found at first floor level, the principal bedroom facing the front of the house. The two further bedrooms are serviced by the family bathroom.

The property has the benefit of being conveniently located whilst surrounded by natural woodland. The front and rear gardens are a good size, with a patio and flower beds.

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 convenient transport links.

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.
