Description
Offered to the open market with no onward chain, Selhurst occupies an enviable and sheltered location on the edge of the Thorncombe Valley. Set in generous gardens and grounds of approx. 5 acres, with a wealth of charm and character, this spacious 5 bedroom detached Grade II listed family home is available for the first time in many years.
Understood to date back to the 16th century with later additions, upon entering the house you are immediately struck by a sense of arrival. The ground floor features a spacious triple aspect reception room, light and bright, with imposing inglenook fireplace and access to delightful gardens, the perfect place to relax. Adjacent, of similar proportions, is as a formal dining room also benefitting from inglenook fireplace, ideal for entertaining. A second reception room accessed from both the kitchen and the dining room could be used ideally as a playroom or snug.
A traditional kitchen with feature aga, comprehensive range of units and desirable walk in pantry, very much establishes itself as the heart of the home, complemented by a study room nearby, ideal for the ‘working from home’ demands of modern life. A back door off the kitchen gives access to a charming courtyard from which garages, an array of outbuildings or gardens can be found.
A solid oak staircase guides you up to the first floor where you are greeted by a spacious landing off which there are three large double bedrooms, two of which are double aspect. A further two double bedrooms and family bathroom are accessed via a corridor off the landing. All bedrooms enjoy glorious views over the private gardens and fields beyond. The roof void is easily accessible offering an abundance of storage space.
Outside, the private gardens are extensive, mainly laid to lawn, displaying mature trees, shrubs and beds, all beautifully maintained. Enveloping the house, with direct access from the gardens is a large meadow surrounded by mature woodland, complemented by bluebells, snowdrops and daffodils, extending to some 5 acres in total.
Completing Selhurst, to the side, is an open brick built carport as well as lockable garage, workshop/garden machinery store and log store. A large gravel driveway offers ample parking for a number of cars.
Location
The village of Bramley offers an excellent range of local services for daily needs, including the village school, church, library, two pubs, restaurants, convenience shops and Post Office.
Guildford provides a full range of shopping, leisure and cultural amenities, including the renowned Yvonne Arnaud Theatre and G Live entertainment venue. In addition, the mainline station provides a fast and frequent service into London Waterloo with journey times from around 35 minutes. Road communications are very good, with easy access to the A3 at Guildford and the M25 at Wisley.
There is a very good selection of schools in the area, including St Catherine’s, Cranleigh, Charterhouse, Aldro, St Hilary’s, Prior’s Field, Guildford High and The Royal Grammar School.
