4 bedroom detached house for sale

This very comfortable house extends to approximately 2,458 sq ft, with additional cellar and outbuildings providing excellent ancillary space. At the heart of the house sits the principal sitting room, a generous and atmospheric space featuring a fireplace and views across the garden. The adjoining dining room provides a perfect setting for formal entertaining, while the family room offers a more relaxed everyday living area. The kitchen is both functional and welcoming, opening into a light-filled breakfast room / conservatory which enjoys delightful garden views and provides direct access to the terrace - ideal for both family life and entertaining. Further ground floor accommodation includes a study, useful stores, and access to a cellar providing excellent wine or general storage. Upstairs, the house offers a number of well-proportioned bedrooms, all enjoying charming outlooks. The principal bedroom is complemented by a dressing room, while the remaining bedrooms are flexible and well suited to both family and guest use. Listed building consent was granted in September 2015 for a fourth bedroom following demolition of an existing extension. This has since lapsed. At the top of the drive is the converted barn which provides bright well-presented modern accommodation over one floor, ideal for guests, family or staff. The gardens are a particular highlight of Staceys Farm Cottage. Laid chiefly to lawn and framed by mature trees, hedging and seasonal planting, they offer a high degree of privacy and a wonderfully tranquil setting. There are several areas for outside dining and quiet enjoyment, and ample space for children to play or for keen gardeners to further enhance the grounds. The property is approached via a sweeping gravel driveway that leads to a car barn, providing covered parking. Additional parking is available on the drive, making the property well suited for entertaining and family living. Staceys Farm Cottage is situated in the heart of the popular village of Elstead, a short walk to The Green. This vibrant and thriving village has a Spar with Post Office, pharmacy, vets, three pubs (The Mill, Woolpack and Golden Fleece), and cafes. It boasts a strong community, with a village hall, youth centre, tennis club, cricket club, and multiple recreation grounds, surrounded by extensive common land and protected countryside. Communications in the area are excellent with the A3 providing access to London and the M25 and national motorway network. Trains into London Waterloo run from nearby Milford, Godalming, Haslemere and Guildford. There is extensive riding, walking and cycling on Elstead and Thursley Commons as well as golf at nearby Hankley Common.
