"Northbourne is one of the most recognizable properties within the pretty village of Chobham, with its familiar Georgian architecture and a house that is Grade 11 Listed, dating from the early 19th Century. The property has distinctive red brick elevations relieved by a hipped slate roof with later additions including the angled bay windows and quadrant cuved bays added in the latter part of that century. The subsequent listing occured in 1984 (listing number 1377517).

The property is very much a 'landmark' house within the village and set in 0.4 acre of enclosed garden with a heated swimming pool. Notable features are the two traditional and most attractive reception rooms, both with double aspect and fireplaces, the modern kitchen and adjoining dining room, the latter being the former kitchen with the old range being evident, the study and the lower ground cellar, all of which provide a most ambient setting. To the first floor are a principal bedroom with ensuite bathroom and 4 further bedrooms with a family bathroom as well as a hobbies room or occassional child's bedroom.

We thoroughly recommend this prominent, Georgian village house, for its ambience, location and private garden.

Outside
The gardens very much compliment the house and offer a surprising area for a village property. They are mainly laid to lawn with formal hedging and mature trees, providing different areas to walk through, along with some flower borders and a generous paved terrace adjoining the rear of the property, which provides a courtyard area leading into a variety of useful brick and timber outbuildings and storage areas. Alongside one boundary is the heated swimming pool and filter house, which is a gated for safety.

Overall, the gardens provide a private setting for the house and extend to 0.4 acre."
