Sherwood Cottage is a most attractive semi-detached cottage of great charm and character enjoying a mature, rural location between the villages of Capel and Ockley. The property retains various fine, traditional features. An entrance porch with stable front door and glazed door leads to the entrance hall, and then to a dining room with beamed ceiling which has an attractive bow window to the front. From here, an archway with steps leads down to the sitting room, which is a particularly charming room enjoying a triple aspect with fine views over the garden – there are French doors leading to the garden. There is also a wood-burning stove set in an impressive Inglenook-style fireplace. The kitchen located to the rear has a walk-in larder with original slate shelves and just to the rear accessed from the kitchen there is a garden room with a grapevine. There is also a ground floor bathroom. To the first floor, there are four bedrooms, with the main bedroom enjoying a lovely double aspect, a study/occasional bedroom 5, shower room and separate WC. The gardens are a very fine feature of the cottage having been lovingly maintained over many years, very much in the style of the classic English country cottage garden. There are formal lawned areas with numerous shrubs, flowerbeds and borders, an established vegetable/soft fruit area, aluminium framed greenhouse, log store, brick outhouse with adjacent workshop and a substantial timber-framed car port with parking to the front and a 5-bar gate leading on to Weare Street. The Dorking to Horsham rail line runs a short distance to the rear of the garden. In all, the plot extends to about 0.26 of an acre.
Sherwood Cottage is situated in Weare Street which is a country lane located between Capel and Ockley. Ockley station is a short distance away and provides services to both Horsham and Dorking and beyond to London, operating at peak hours. Both Capel to the east and Ockley to the west provide a range of facilities for day-to-day needs, whilst both Dorking to the north and Horsham to the south offer an excellent range of mainstream and individual shops, a good selection of schools both in the state and independent sector and commuter services from Dorking to London Waterloo and Victoria and from Horsham to Victoria and London Bridge. The countryside surrounding this area is beautiful and ideal for the riding, walking and cycling enthusiast.
