Description

A hidden gem located at the end of a private, quiet lane, Camellia House is close to a number of outstanding schools and yet is an easy walk into Farnham town centre and to the main-line railway station.

A central open porch with oak door leads into the heart of this wonderfully light and practical family home. The whole house has a welcoming, airy feel with excellent flow through both the upstairs and downstairs rooms.

On the ground floor there is a large, light sitting room which stretches the full depth of the property with a working open fireplace and double French doors opening out onto the garden. Across the hall there is a separate spacious dining room for entertaining with access through a pair of French doors into the sunny conservatory.

The modern fitted kitchen features a range of built-in appliances, plenty of worktop space, ample cupboards and drawers and enjoys a garden view. The kitchen leads onto the utility room which has a built-in washing machine, second freezer, Butler sink and further plentiful cupboard space. The utility room has access out into the garden, into the downstairs cloakroom and into the conservatory. The conservatory faces south west and provides a wonderful space for relaxing with double French doors opening out onto the paved area by the fishpond. The study, which also has a garden view, completes the ground floor accommodation.

The first floor comprises four good-sized double bedrooms; the principal bedroom having the added luxury of its own large four piece en suite bathroom. Three of the bedrooms offer large, built-in wardrobes providing excellent hanging and storage space. There is also a family bathroom with shower.

Camellia House is accessed via a quiet, private lane which leads initially to the detached double garage which has power and light. The lane then continues down onto a block paved driveway providing ample parking in front of the house.

The garden which surrounds the house is a real feature to the property, offering a quiet sanctuary with a variety of appealing vistas and seating areas. The garden is well planted with mature shrubs and trees and the well-stocked borders help to create a secluded space which is ideal for relaxing and entertaining.
