5 bed detached house for sale

Tilford Road, Hindhead, Surrey GU26

Exceptional detached five bedroom house in an exclusive development of only four substantial homes with gated access onto National Trust land. Mature level landscaped garden; driveway parking and double garage. Offered with no onward chain.

Flexible and spacious accommodation for a growing family within this handsome part tile hung home which enjoys 3,215 sq feet (inc garage) of modern well-appointed and beautifully maintained property.

Approached via a mature front garden and substantial driveway, offering parking for several vehicles in addition to the double garage (electric doors). A paved pathway leads around to a deep covered entrance porch to an attractive glazed front door flanked by stained glass panels either side. This naturally lets light into the reception hall which is generous and a great space in which to welcome family and friends alike.

The reception rooms are incredibly versatile. Starting with a dual aspect sitting room approached from the hallway via double doors, this runs the full depth of the house with patio doors onto the rear garden at the end. Centrally positioned is an open fire within a wall of bespoke shelving and cupboard storage, an alternate, slightly more cosy space is the rear aspect family room/snug. Contrasting wonderfully with this is the superb part vaulted open plan kitchen/dining room/conservatory; the real heart of the home, whether for busy family life or hosting parties. Of particular note are the conservatory dining area which overlooks the gardens (with doors opening directly out onto them) and the large central kitchen island. Ceramic tiled flooring links everything together allowing for natural movement around the different areas. The kitchen was fitted approximately five years ago and benefits from a twin sink with Quooker tap, corner pantry cupboard and pull out larder, plus integrated dishwasher, wine fridge and two bin stores with further space for a range cooker and American style fridge freezer.

Off the kitchen is a separate utility room with space for further white goods. It benefits from a door into a courtyard area of the garden with shed and washing line, a tucked away working area of the garden, and has an internal door into the garage.

Finally to the front of the ground floor, adjacent to the cloakroom, is a ground floor bedroom with built in wardrobe (formerly a study) an ideal guest suite if needed.

Moving to the first floor a galleried landing offers access to all the bedroom and loft access if needed. The principle suite enjoys a double bedroom, walk in wardrobe and large en suite facility featuring both bath and separate shower. A 2nd guest double bedroom has built in wardrobes and en suite; with bath, shower, bidet, toilet and sink. There are three further generous bedrooms with built in wardrobes (one of which is currently used as a study) which share a spacious family bathroom, which also benefits from a separate shower and access to eaves storage.

The gardens are a delight, a rural idyll and haven for birds and visiting wildlife. Level mature well stocked borders with a woodland backdrop; behind the garden sits acres and acres of heath and woodland at The Devils Punchbowl. Adjacent to the house a patio runs from the conservatory past the kitchen along to the sitting room, plenty of space to relax, dine or entertain following the sun, or shade! Patio doors to garden. A manicured lawn and wildlife pond complete the garden picture. Viewing is highly recommended to appreciate the peace and tranquillity which abounds. There are also two useful garden sheds, storage is always needed!
