"A brilliantly located, handsome family home, in a remarkably quiet setting with a walled garden and greenhouses, formal gardens and grounds, woodland and substantial outbuildings. In all just over 5 acres.

ABOUT THIS HOUSE
On a private road, with 5 acres of south facing, gently sloping gardens and grounds in Lower Bourne just to south of Farnham, 24 Gardeners Hill Road is a handsome house that occupies a brilliantly convenient location in a magical situation.

A delightful family home with an impressive fa ade and generous accommodation, this superb property is thought originally to have been an 18th century coach house which has been enlarged and extended over the generations to provide 5 bedrooms with 3 bathrooms as well as charming formal reception rooms and family spaces. These include a broad welcoming hall that opens into the delightful garden room beyond which in turn is open to a wonderfully practical and utterly charming kitchen. Tucked away a to one end of the house is a surprisingly large and private study. To the western side of the hall is a well proportioned dining room with elegant part glazed double doors leading to the marvellous drawing room.

The house is approached via a gated courtyard on one side of which is the garage, workshop and stores. Beyond this is the very special walled garden within which is a pair of immense period greenhouses and a potting shed. The formal gardens extend to the south of the house and are encompassed by mature woodland.

This is a scarce example of a family home both in a rather special location and a delightful setting.

ABOUT THIS AREA
The house is located a short distance from the village centres of Rowledge, Wrecclesham, and Lower Bourne which offer a variety of local shops, pubs, a tennis club, a cricket field, a church with a plethora of excellent public and private schools. This is a highly desirable area, tucked away from the main traffic routes. Farnham is known for its wide streets and historic architecture, including Georgian and medieval buildings, as well as its castle and 320 acre deer park. The town centre offers great shopping, a variety of restaurants, wine bars, and supermarkets. The redevelopment of the East Street area has added new shops and a five screen cinema. For golfers there are excellent courses at Hankley Common and Hindhead. Farnham Train Station is just under 2.7 miles away, with a fast service to London Waterloo in under an hour and a direct link to Guildford. The surrounding countryside, much of which is owned by the National Trust, provides great opportunities for walking, riding, and outdoor activities. Transport links are excellent, with the A31, A331, M3 Junction 5 , and A3 offering access to the national motorway network, as well as Heathrow and Gatwick airports as well as the south coast.
