Description
A truly charming period cottage offering over 1323 sq ft of bright, versatile accommodation surrounded by approximately 0.9 acres of grounds including an adjacent paddock and a detached annex. Situated in an enviable position within the quintessential hamlet of Walliswood, just on the southern side of the Surrey Hills.
Margerywing enjoys a wealth of history dating back to circa 1697, offering all the period charm expected from a property of this era with a fascinating range of character features including exposed beams, latch doors, brick fireplaces and lozenge windows.
This intriguing property begins with the gabled porch before opening through into the entrance hall where you are instantly met with the warm welcoming feel this wonderful cottage offers. Stepping through into the dining room, a well-proportioned 13'4 ft with original exposed beams and an inglenook fireplace with gas stove, creating a warm cosy ambience. The living room has been designed to be the heart of the home, again enjoying exposed beams, an inglenook fireplace with log burning stove and French doors opening out into the garden, perfect for entertaining guests. Across the hall is the quaint kitchen, recently updated by the current owners to now offer a range of contemporary floor to ceiling units complemented by Quartz worktops, a ceramic hob and a selection of integrated appliances. From the kitchen, a step leads to the spectacular conservatory which can be enjoyed throughout all times of the year. This is a wonderful bright space with plenty of natural light flooding in that could be used for many different purposes including a separate family room and additionally benefits from doors opening out onto the garden terrace. Completing the ground floor accommodation is the downstairs cloakroom.
A characterful staircase takes you to the first floor landing which in turn provides access to all the upstairs accommodation and loft hatch. The dual aspect master bedroom is an excellent 12'4 ft enjoying glorious views across the gardens and includes built in wardrobes. In addition, this room benefits from its own en suite shower room with attractive panelling and a white suite. Bedroom two is another generous double with an original window and the third is a good-sized single benefiting from fitted storage. The family bathroom with modern white suite and panelling completes the upstairs accommodation.
Studio 18'6 ft
Above the detached car barn, there is the advantage of a studio offering a spacious double bedroom with en suite shower room, the ideal space for guests or a visiting relative to have their own space.
Summerhouse/home office 12'10 ft
Positioned within the garden there is a large summer house with power and heating, offering the perfect place for anyone working from home.
Plot
Another excellent advantage to this property is the adjacent plot of land (approximately 0.2 acres) with independent access. With the correct current authority consent, there is plenty of potential to build a separate dwelling STPP.
Outside
The property is accessed via an in/out surfaced driveway providing parking for several cars with additional parking available in the two bay oak barn. To the side there is a well fitted workshop.
The sunny 0.7 acres garden is yet another magnificent benefit to the property which has been left to naturally blend with the adjacent woodlands creating a real sense of tranquillity. Beautifully wrapping around the cottage, the manicured garden is mainly laid to lawn with areas of rockery stocked with a wonderful selection of plants. Steps lead to an alluring raised terrace with a rose covered pergola and brick built barbeque, ideal for al fresco dining or entertaining in the warmer months. The whole garden is enclosed creating a sense of privacy with an inviting array of trees, mature shrubs and well-stocked beds. In addition, there is a greenhouse handy for any keen gardeners.
