"Beautifully presented family house with spectacular accommodation in prime south Farnham location.

Description

Located on an exclusive residential road in a prime South Farnham location, Hambledon House sits centrally in a secluded and gated plot, and has been substantially extended and updated by the current owners to create a spacious family home.

The property is accessed through electric double gates onto a sweeping gravelled driveway, with plenty of parking and access to a heated triple barn style garage. The house has attractive brick elevations and is entered through an arched oak front door into a central entrance hall with a fireplace. From here there is access to a ground floor cloakroom and all the principal reception rooms, which have wide oak flooring and cast iron radiators.

To the right, there is a dual aspect drawing room with an open fireplace, fitted wood shutters and double doors to the garden and the kitchen. To the left is a study with plenty of natural light and a further reception room, which could be used as a library TV room, with built in shelving. Both of these rooms have been enhanced with attractive painted panelling.

To the rear of the house is an impressive kitchen dining family room that spans the back of the house and includes an impressive 24ft glazed wall of bifold doors that open to the rear terrace. The handmade kitchen includes a curved island and integrated appliances and there is ample space for a large dining table, comfortable seating and a bar area. The area has a mix of oak and tile flooring with underfloor heating and leads to an adjacent utility room with an external door to a covered veranda. There are also steps down to a good sized wine cellar with bespoke shelving. The lighting is automated via a Control 4 system.

Upstairs, the triple aspect principal bedroom suite was created as part of the extension and is a luxurious retreat with vaulted ceilings. The bedroom encompasses a seating area and a hydrotherapy spa and two sets of double doors open up to a Juliet balcony with triple aspect views across the gardens. There is a large adjacent dressing room with ample storage and a central island, and an ensuite featuring a walk in shower with double shower heads and a double vanity.

Three bedrooms are served by a well appointed family bathroom that has a roll top bath and a separate shower. Two further bedrooms have a shared shower room.

Outside, the plot extends to about 1.7 acres and is carefully landscaped with mature trees and planting. The lawned garden wraps around the house and features a wide terrace outside the kitchen with plenty of space for seating and dining.

The heated triple garage, has integral storage space and there is further attached garden store at the rear. Over the garage is a one bedroom guest apartment with a bathroom and kitchenette. Also in the grounds is a beautiful greenhouse, a children s playhouse and modern studio garden room, which has been used by the current owners as a gym sauna room but would also make an excellent home office.
