6 bedroom detached house to rent

A smartly remodelled six double-bedroom detached home, occupying a private and secluded two-acre plot in the heart of the Surrey Hills.

Approached via private gates and a sweeping driveway, this completely refurbished residence features a striking plantation-style southerly elevation and sits centrally within its expansive grounds.

The property opens into a welcoming and spacious entrance hallway with understairs storage. The heart of the home is the high-specification Shaker-style kitchen, fitted with an American-style fridge-freezer, two ovens, wine cooler, Belfast sink and a substantial central island incorporating a breakfast bar. Bifold doors open directly onto a slate terrace, while an archway leads through to a generous family / breakfast / dining room, ideal for modern living and entertaining.

An impressively equipped utility room provides excellent practical space and is perfectly suited for country living, with direct external access and a hose point just outside — ideal for dogs after muddy walks. A downstairs WC is also located off this area.

From the dining room, double doors open into a dual-aspect reception room, featuring a sleek wall-mounted electric fire for additional warmth and ambience. Two further rooms with built-in storage complete the ground-floor accommodation; one benefits from French doors opening onto the wrap-around terrace. These versatile rooms could be used as additional bedrooms, reception rooms or home offices, or as a self-contained suite for relatives or guests, with an adjacent bathroom featuring a double sink and double shower.

The ground floor has been fitted throughout with brand-new wooden flooring, while the upper floor offers superior quality new carpets. There are four further double bedrooms upstairs, all enjoying attractive views over the surrounding gardens.

The principal bedroom suite features bespoke built-in wardrobes and an ensuite shower room finished with floor-to-ceiling tiling. The second bedroom benefits from a separate dressing room, while the third includes built-in wardrobes.

For peace of mind, the property is equipped with an alarm system, Ring doorbell, and camera security system.

The mature and extensive grounds comprise lawns interspersed with established trees and areas of secluded woodland — an idyllic setting for children, pets, and outdoor living. A gardener is included.

Parking is plentiful, with a large driveway, double car port, and double garage. An EV charging point has been installed for tenant convenience.

A refurbished stable block with two stalls, along with a separate storage outbuilding located at the far end of the garage, allows for a limited number of horses by arrangement.
