About this property

  • Originally dating from the 1700s, Cherrytree Cottage is a charming half tile hung character home in a sought after position within the Surrey Hills. The cottage has been modernised throughout by the current owners and is beautifully presented. Highlights include stylish interiors, smart lighting, underfloor heating and newly fitted carpets.

    The kitchen/breakfast room has been designed in a traditional country style with fitted cabinetry, electric oven and a gas hob. This room is filled with natural light from the Velux windows and has ample room for a breakfast table whilst the dining room provides a fabulous entertaining space. The comfortable sitting room has a memorable Inglenook fireplace and leads to the beautiful glass orangery.

    Two good sized double bedrooms with built-in storage can be found on the first floor (one en suite) along with a separate cloakroom. The third bedroom can be found downstairs with access to a newly fitted shower room.

    A notable feature of the property is the timber framed home office in the garden. Fully insulated and with power and light, underfloor heating and superb views across the valley, this is ideal for working from home.

    The property sits well within its plot, to the front is a pretty garden with steps leading to the front door, the views are spectacular and the position is wonderfully tranquil. The rear garden is sloped with pleasant seating areas and a delightful paved terrace framed by trees and shrubbery offering privacy and seclusion.

    Cherrytree Cottage would be well suited as a main residence or a picturesque weekend country retreat with is close proximity to the centre of the village.
