Greenacres is a substantial family home that was substantially enlarged in the 1960s and extensively modernised and refurbished by the current owners over the last 25 years. Internally the room proportions are generous with high ceilings and substantial windows, together with superb views over the gardens and grounds to the rear. In addition to the formal reception rooms, the breakfast room is of particular note with wide aspect and large windows overlooking the gardens and opening onto the terrace. Beyond this there is a superb set of domestic offices and a remarkable series of cellars.

On the first floor, in addition to the generous principal bedroom suite, there is an en suite guest bedroom and 4 further bedrooms all with delightful views and a family bathroom. The accommodation benefits from a wealth of exposed timbers, leaded light windows, an inglenook fireplace and an oak staircase to the generous first floor landing.

The gardens and grounds extend to approximately 2.05 acres and the principal garden is mainly laid to lawn interspersed with mature specimen trees and shrubs and part surrounded by herbaceous
borders. Beyond this is a fabulous vegetable garden and working walled garden adjacent to which is a wonderful greenhouse. There is also a tennis court with a terraced seating area and beyond this is a charming area of woodland.


Greenacres is situated in the picturesque Hamlet of Farley Green and occupies an idyllic rural position with a magnificent outlook over the gardens and grounds. The house is approached through a substantial gateway leading to a generous gravel driveway, parking and turning area. Farley Green is nestled within the Surrey Hills, which is an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and as a result there are miles of walking and riding across open countryside. Farley Green is between the villages of Albury, Shamley Green and Shere.

The house is conveniently located in the midst of the regional centres of Guildford, Cranleigh and Godalming.

There is access on to the A3 at Clandon, which in turn connects to the M25 at Wisley giving access to Central London, Gatwick and Heathrow Airports.
