Property description
A four bedroom, two reception and two bathroom 1920's stable conversion, converted gradually since 1956. Found some distance along a private drive between Alfold and Loxwood. The property is in a good position for commuting by train to London via Waterloo or Victoria and for access to Gatwick and Heathrow airports, whilst being in an idyllic location with open fields around.
The sought after village of Loxwood on the Surrey/Sussex border offers a doctors surgery, local convenience store/PO, butchers, hairdressers and two fantastic gastro pubs, all within walking distance of the property. The nearby village of Cranleigh offers a wider variety of facilities with several supermarkets, bakers, banks, boutique shops, restaurants, sports centres etc.
Loxwood itself has a primary school deemed \"outstanding\" by recent Ofsted reports, as is the Weald secondary school and sixth form college in Billingshurst. In the private sector there are many excellent establishments around the area including Cranleigh School, Farlington, Pennthorpe, Duke of Kent and St. Catherines. Most of these schools have free bus services/organised school runs from Loxwood.
The property is a single storey stable conversion in a courtyard location with a plot size of approx. one acre. It is a spacious, well maintained four bedroom home in its current configuration, but if preferred offers the flexibility to be easily reconfigured in several different ways, including the potential to simply convert one end of the property to a spacious self contained annexe if required.
Both reception rooms feature beautiful original 1950's parquet flooring, with a multi fuel stove in the lounge and an open fire place in the dining room. The lounge is dual aspect and has French windows opening onto a south facing terrace. The entrance hall has original quarry tiles.
The kitchen is fully fitted in a shaker style with a large pantry cupboard and French doors to allow separation from the dining room. The utility room has a mezzanine area above it with a velux window which is used as a home office, but this is only accessible via a ladder. There is a large room with vaulted ceiling and velux window that has not been converted yet and is currently used for storage but as it has radiators, double glazing and electricity could easily be turned into an additional bedroom or reception room. With French windows to the courtyard next to it, it could allow separate access if required.
The property benefits from a large family bathroom and a separate shower room, as well as an attic room with velux window accessed via a staircase in one of the bedrooms that the current owners used as a playroom for their children.
Outside are the beautiful grounds which include courtyard areas for outdoor dining and entertaining. The secluded gardens are bordered by fields and extend to around three quarters of an acre , they have plenty of lawn as well as flowering shrubs and trees. There is a greenhouse, several vegetable beds and various fruit trees and bushes. The property had a substantial area for parking both in the courtyard and through the double gates to the garden entrance of the property.
