Detached house for sale in Bowlhead Green, Godalming, Surrey GU8

Wykwell Cottage is a very pretty period cottage which we understand dates back in part to the eighteenth century. The cottage is beautifully presented with an elegant and classic country feel, full of light, whilst still retaining much character such as some substantial period beams.

On the ground floor are three reception rooms, all of which enjoy an outlook onto the gardens. For a cottage of this nature, these rooms are surprisingly spacious with lofty ceilings and two have working fireplaces. The drawing room has a Morso wood burning stove. The kitchen again has a lovely country feel incorporating oak flooring and oak ceiling beams.

Having a third reception room, gives the opportunity for a ground floor bedroom as it has a shower room off and was previously used in the past for this. Of note is the independent
bedroom suite which is located at the end of the garden.

Wykwell Cottage is a very special country cottage, located in a prime setting, yet so accessible to the A3, London and all the excellent surrounding schools.

At the end of the gardens is the brick built building incorporating a workshop. In addition it also incorporates the independent bedroom suite that was converted from the former garage.
There is also a greenhouse within the gardens. There is parking for three cars – Two spaces to the side of the workshop and one to the front.

The gardens at Wykwell Cottage have been beautifully maintained and offer an huge array of trees and shrubs. Well stocked borders surround an area of flat lawn. Brick pathways lead from the garaging to the house and steps down to the terrace which immediately abuts the rear
elevation of the house. In all, the gardens provide a very private and mature setting.
