A substantial five-bedroom detached house on Farncombe Hill offering flexible family living across two floors. The home combines period character — bay windows, solid wood doors and picture rails — with practical modern additions such as solar panels, double-length integral garaging and a large dedicated ground-floor office ideal for remote working or hobbies.
Living spaces flow well: a south-facing reception with a working fireplace and a separate dining room that opens into a contemporary conservatory, creating an airy entertaining axis that leads straight onto a paved terrace and extensive lawn. The garden is private and well planted, with a greenhouse and secluded patio areas for outdoor dining and play.
There is clear scope to reconfigure to suit modern family life (subject to planning and consents). The kitchen is mid-century in style and will likely benefit from updating to create a more open-plan kitchen-dining hub. Note there is a single family bathroom for five bedrooms, so adding an en suite or second bathroom would improve daily convenience and resale value.
Practical details: the property sits in a very low-crime, affluent area with excellent mobile and broadband speeds and convenient access to Farncombe schools, the mainline station and Godalming town centre. The home is freehold but has above-average council tax; cavity walls appear to have been built without insulation, so further energy-efficiency work may be worth considering despite the existing solar panels.
