About this property

  • Understood to date from the early 20th century, Lane Cottage is a charming character home nestled in a peaceful, semi rural position on the highly desirable Munstead Heath Road. There is great scope to modernise and planning permission has been granted to significantly alter and extend the property. Ref: WA/2023/00449.

    Accommodation currently comprises two well proportioned reception rooms, a large kitchen/breakfast room with adjoining utility room and a bathroom. One of the reception rooms can easily be used as a further bedroom if required. There are two double bedrooms and a large cloakroom on the first floor.

    The gardens and wonderful setting are a key feature. The cottage sits well within it circa 0.5 acre of delightful gardens with an additional 2.5 acres of mature woodland known as Violet Wood directly opposite. The position is tranquil and serene with truly memorable views over the neighbouring countryside.

    Accessed via a lane off Munstead Heath Road, there is ample parking in front of the garage which benefits from a studio room above. There is also a delightful summer house which enjoys open countryside views.
