"Overlooking acres of Surrey farmland, in an historic Conservation Area, Stable Cottage is unrecognisable from it s origins as an ancillary cottage to neighbouring Brooklyn. Now subtly but considerably extended and reconfigured, beneath a slate roof, this fine residence is an ideal home in which to raise a family, boasting a wealth of reception spaces and accommodation across some 2386 sq ft and an impressive acre or so of English landscaped gardens, part enclosed by a most charmingly aesthetic brick wall and offering much interest.

Draw up on the gravelled driveway, or in the double garage and step through the pretty arched porch where Amtico flooring adorns the inviting entrance hall. From here, a staircase rises upstairs to the four bedrooms, each with it s own enviable view across the surrounds and of which two are ensuite, in addition to a family bathroom with gorgeous heritage sanitaryware.

On the ground floor, the house offers multiple reception rooms, including a study and formal dining room but it is perhaps the sitting room and kitchen family room where you ll spend most of your time and for good reason. The former includes a homely open fireplace, perfect for cosying up in the autumn and winter months, whilst you gaze out of a full height picture window across the gardens. It is the latter which is undoubtedly the heart of this wonderful home however; a kitchen fitted with traditional, painted units also includes a breakfast island, with a butcher s block top. This spacious, semi vaulted room, with its adjacent utility and boot room, lends itself well to a variety of layouts, with space for a large dining table, perfect for hosting friends and family, and thereafter a relaxed seating area next to the wide aperture of the bi folding doors, a calming space to sit and enjoy the glorious vista across the sweeping flower beds, wildflower meadow, orchard, vegetable cutting garden and natural wildlife pond."
