Property for sale in Oakcroft Road, Pyrford, Woking KT14

This exquisite five-bedroom, three-storey residence, crafted by wg Tarrant in the early 1900s, offers around 3450 square feet of living space and features a southerly bay-sided elevation to maximise natural light. The home is in good decorative condition and showcases numerous original features, including a breathtaking galleried reception hall with half oak-panelled walls, period fireplaces, high ceilings, and tall windows fitted with recently installed Heritage double glazing.

While preserving its charming period character, this tastefully presented family home is thoughtfully designed for modern living, providing substantial, well-balanced, bright, airy, and versatile accommodation throughout. The grand reception hall boasts an original quarry-tiled floor and a solid wood staircase prominently set against a striking double-height window. The hallway offers access to two reception rooms and the kitchen, while the dual-aspect sitting room highlights a bay window and a central open fireplace. The bay kitchen/breakfast room features ample work surfaces and an island, accompanied by an adjoining snug/family room with doors leading to the rear garden and loggia. The first floor comprises three bedrooms, including the principal suite and a family bathroom. The second floor houses two additional bedrooms and a large storage room, potentially convertible into another en-suite facility. The current owners have meticulously restored and upgraded the house, adding a new heating system and windows.

Outside, the meticulously maintained and mature gardens include a front garden with a central driveway and parking area, flanked by well-stocked flower borders. A large side garden with mature flower beds leads to a generously sized, private rear garden laid to lawn. At the rear of the garden is a spacious detached outbuilding, perfect for use as a studio or workshop. Adjacent to the snug/family room, a large terrace area presents an ideal opportunity (subject to planning permission) to extend the loggia and create a new oak-framed wood/glass open-plan kitchen/breakfast room. Remnants of a previous room in this location include a magnificent period fireplace, adding to the home's unique charm.
