    About this property

    • The Burtleys is a picturesque property with attractive Bargate stone and brick elevations that is understood to have been originally built in the early 1600s with later Georgian additions. Located in a semi-rural location on the edge of the popular village of Frensham, it is surrounded by countryside while only being a short drive to Farnham.

      The property is very well presented and has been thoughtfully modernised by the current owners, to enhance the attractive period features. It is not listed so there is further opportunity for new owners to update the property to their own requirements with current planning permission in place for an extension.

      Approached via a gravel driveway, with a parking area for several cars, the property is entered via a covered porch into a generous entrance hall with space for seating, a wood burning stove and stairs to the first floor. Doors lead to the kitchen and three further reception rooms, including a snug/tv room with exposed oak beams, and an inglenook fireplace with a wood burning stove. The main sitting room measures over 25 ft and is dual aspect with plenty of natural light from four sash windows overlooking the garden and patio doors out. This room has a fireplace with wood burning stove and a beautiful herringbone parquet floor, which also features in the snug and entrance hall.

      The kitchen is at the back of the house and features fitted shaker cabinets with solid oak worktops, quarry tiles and a cosy panelled dining area with bench seating. This leads to a lobby with an external door, a useful utility room and downstairs cloakroom; with access to a third reception, tucked away on the other side of the house with views over the garden from a wide bay window. This could be used as a dining room or separate study with a door leading out to the garden.

      There is also a ground floor bedroom with vaulted ceilings, an ensuite shower room and its own access, providing useful guest accommodation.

      Upstairs the principal bedroom has an ensuite bathroom and fitted wardrobes, and there are three further well-proportioned bedrooms serviced by a family bathroom with separate shower. All the bedrooms have wonderful views over the gardens, and bedroom two is of particular note with dual aspect windows, deep window seats and fitted joinery.

      Outside, the plot extends to 1.3 acres with various seating areas to enjoy views of the glorious landscaped gardens, with mature trees and seasonal planting providing interest and colour throughout the year. There is a kitchen garden, complete with greenhouse.
