"A charming, detached, village home overlooking the Shamley Green cricket green.

Description

Set in the heart of the sought after Shamley Green, this beautifully presented three bedroom home enjoys generous living space and delightful views over the village green and cricket pitch.

Offering a wide variety of excellent amenities, Shamley Green boasts a village shop, a farm shop, a popular cafe and two pubs, Red Lion and the Bricklayers Arms. In addition, there are a number of well regarded local groups; of note is the History Society, the Garden Club and a monthly village hall cinema. The property also enjoys the prettiest of walks in the Surrey Hills with miles of footpaths and bridleways accessed straight from the cottage.

On entering the house a good size hallway opens on to the dining room and greets you with a sense of spaciousness. A large bay window in the sitting room floods the room with natural light while providing picturesque views over the village. The kitchen breakfast room is well appointed with ample storage and opens to a South West facing garden room, from here double doors open onto the patio garden, ideal for alfresco dining. The layout flows well and a separate store room completes the downstairs accommodation.

On the first floor there are three double bedrooms. The principal bedroom, with ensuite bathroom, enjoys views over the green. Further, there is a shower room and separate WC. A narrow staircase from the landing leads to loft rooms, offering potential for conversion into additional living space, subject to obtaining the necessary planning permission.

The rear patio garden is characterised by its secluded feel and seating areas amidst mature trees and shrubs, including a fig tree. A real sun trap, it offers ample space for relaxation and social gatherings. There is also access to the carport.
