1 bed terraced house for sale

Ripley, Surrey GU23

This charming Grade II listed mid-terraced cottage occupies a delightful position in the heart of Ripley. It is set in the row known locally as ‘Ostlers Cottages’. Rich in history and brimming with period character, the property showcases an abundance of original features, with its beautiful leaded windows providing an immediate glimpse of the charm that lies within.

The front door opens into a welcoming sitting room, filled with natural light and centred around a striking red brick open fireplace complete with the original cast iron wood-burning stove. Terracotta floor tiles flow seamlessly through to the adjoining dining room, where the character continues with the staircase and useful built-in storage beneath.

Situated at the rear of the cottage, the kitchen enjoys direct access to the sunny rear garden via a traditional stable door. Outside, a small paved terrace leads up to a private graveled courtyard, complete with a garden shed and thoughtfully arranged as an entertaining space by the current owner. Rear access is available from the garden via No. 16 to the road beyond.

Upstairs, the cottage's historic charm is equally evident. The generous double bedroom features an original open fireplace together with open hanging space, creating a characterful and practical retreat. The bathroom overlooks the rear garden and from there, a staircase leads to what was used as an art studio by the previous owner - complete with a Belfast sink and a dormer window, which enjoys delightful views towards the churchyard.

A rare opportunity to acquire a beautifully preserved period cottage, steeped in local history and offering an enviable village lifestyle in one of Surrey's most sought-after locations.
