About this property

A quintessential Surrey Hills farmhouse with land, sensational views, outbuildings, and beautiful gardens, all within easy reach of the historic charm, pubs and amenities of Shere village while enjoying the peace and beauty of the surrounding countryside.

Set in a wonderful elevated position with superb views, just to the south of the picturesque village of Shere, this charming period farmhouse enjoys an exceptional rural setting in the heart of the Surrey Hills National Landscape. Surrounded by rolling countryside and approached from a quiet country lane, the property offers a rare combination of seclusion, character and land extending to approximately 2.3 acres.
The farmhouse itself is full of warmth and traditional charm, with well-proportioned accommodation arranged over two floors and extending to around 2,220 sq ft. The ground floor provides a welcoming layout centred around a spacious triple aspect sitting room with an attractive outlook over the gardens, complemented by a cosy family tv room and a fitted kitchen that connects to a delightful conservatory, ideal for enjoying the exceptional views of the surrounding countryside and towards the North Downs. A study/workshop provides useful additional space for home working or hobbies. The property benefits from a fast fibre broadband connection and is wired for ethernet.
Upstairs, the property offers four comfortable bedrooms, including a generous principal bedroom, together with two family bath/shower rooms. The rooms enjoy lovely views over the gardens, adjoining land, and the spectacular distant views.

Outside
The property is set well back from the lane, and is approached over a long drive. There is a detached double garage and ample parking. The cottage gardens are particularly attractive, wrapping around the house to create a secluded and tranquil environment with mature planting, level lawns and sheltered seating areas.
A notable feature of the property is the stable block and associated outbuildings, offering excellent potential for equestrian use and storage. Beyond the gardens lie two post and rail fenced paddocks.

Situation
The property is situated in a delightful rural setting just to the south of the picturesque village of Shere, one of the most sought-after villages within the Surrey Hills National Landscape. Surrounded by beautiful rolling countryside and woodland, Shere is widely regarded as one of Surrey’s most attractive villages, centred around a historic church, cricket green and the River Tillingbourne.
The village offers a range of everyday amenities including a village store and post office, café, tea rooms and traditional public houses, together with a doctor’s surgery and infant school. The nearby county town of Guildford (approximately 6 miles) provides a comprehensive range of shopping, restaurants, leisure and cultural facilities.
Communications in the area are excellent. Rail services are available from Gomshall railway station (about 1 mile) with connections via Guildford, and to Gatwick airport via Dorking. Guildford railway station offers fast and frequent services to London Waterloo in approximately 35 minutes. The A25 runs to the north of the village and connects to the A3, providing access to the M25, London and the south coast.
The area is also particularly well regarded for schooling, with an excellent selection of both state and private schools nearby including Guildford High School, Royal Grammar School, Cranleigh School, St Catherine's School, and Duke of Kent School.
The surrounding countryside offers exceptional opportunities for walking, cycling and riding across the Surrey Hills, with many miles of footpaths and bridleways nearby.
