4 bedroom detached house for sale

Occupying an enviable position in the centre of the conservation area of Weybridge, with an attractive outlook to St James' Church, Church House is a 4,000 sq ft Grade II listed building of historical interest, one of Weybridge's oldest properties, and offers a rare opportunity to acquire a Freehold house and shop.

As one of the oldest shops in Weybridge, 'Church House Antiques' is possibly the oldest surviving antiques shop on record, operating since 1886. The retiring owners have occupied Church House for over fifty years and have gradually developed the shop in to a thriving antiques and interior design business. It has enjoyed extensive patronage over the years from both home and abroad.

The shop currently has A1 use but planning permission has existed for A2 use (and the associated building works) for the three
showrooms and main reception room to be leased separately from the remaining house should this be required.
