Nestled at the foot of the Surrey Hills Area of Outstanding
Natural Beauty, Pit Cottage is a wonderful modernised and extended
home with some parts dating back as far as the 15th Century. The
owners have meticulously blended old with new and skilfully
integrated modern technology whilst keeping a traditional style to
the home.
Just inside the pretty front door the bright hallway reveals the
original flint exterior wall and a modern locally sourced oak and
glass staircase and full height south westerly facing window, an
exciting first impression.
The house is well balanced with reception space either side of
the hallway.
The left hand side of downstairs is a spacious kitchen breakfast
room and walk in pantry with double American fridge freezer, that
has a good range of bespoke painted oak units and further
integrated appliances and with underfloor heating under a flagstone
flooring that leads up a step to an impressive dining space. A snug
TV room with log burner, home office which could double as a fifth
bedroom, downstairs shower room, pantry and utility room complete
this side of the house with access at multiple points to the
beautiful outside.
To the right hand side of the hallway there is a second office,
and a beautiful reception room fully equipped with projector and an
almost full width window with arguably the best view of the
garden.
Light has been a focus whilst designing the spaces and you will
find large windows dotted throughout the home framing the pretty
South Westerly garden.
Upstairs are three good sized double bedrooms and one smaller
bedroom, with built in storage and each with direct access to an en
suite bathroom. The primary bedroom has added luxuries like full
width wardrobes and a TV in the bath.
Outside the main rear garden faces towards the South West and
there are a number of spaces to entertain and chase the sun during
the day. To the side of the house there is a secondary courtyard
style garden that benefits from the morning sun, perfect for that
first alfresco cup of coffee.
To the front of the house is a grey gravel parking area which
teamed with the secondary parking spaces next to the garage at the
bottom of the garden means youll never run out of spaces for
vehicles.
This home really is a must see to fully appreciate the care and
quality that has gone into making this one of the best available
locally. Although benefiting from a semi rural spot, Pit Cottage is
only a few minutes from Cranmore and Glenesk Schools in Horsley and
on the bus route into Guildford for The Royal Grammar, Guildford
High and Tormead. St Teresas in Effingham is just a short drive
away.
Within the Horsleys there is a great selection of local pubs,
restaurants and cafes to enjoy; the train station, in East Horsley
Village, with a direct line into London Waterloo is just over a
mile and a half. There is an abundance of stunning places to walk
and visit locally including The Sheepleas nature reserve just up
the road and Hatchlands Park National Trust.
