6 bedroom detached house for sale

An elegant six bedroom period home effortlessly combining period features with contemporary interiors nestled in just under ½ acre of beautiful grounds approximately half a mile to the centre of Farnham Common.

From impressive facade, the front door opens into a spacious reception hall with oak floors and wood panelling with access to a spacious coat and boot room through to a beautifully presented cloakroom. To the right, a door leads through to the kitchen breakfast room which fulfils its brief as the hub of the home with Shaker style units complemented by wooden worksurface and integrated appliances including a range cooker. The central breakfast island provides both seating and additional work space. This opens directly into the dual aspect dining area with wonderful views and direct access via french doors onto the terrace and lawned garden. The impressive drawing room is vast with high ceilings and a large central fireplace providing the focal feature. French doors again give access out onto the garden.
