Tucked away at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac, this substantial five-bedroom detached house sits on a very large, mature corner plot in a well-established part of Woking. The property offers generous room proportions across approximately 2,111 sq ft, four reception rooms, a double garage and off-street parking — ideal for a growing family wanting space both inside and out. Large sash-style windows and a columned porch give the house strong kerb appeal while the private, landscaped garden and paved patio provide calm outdoor living and entertaining space.
The home requires renovation and updating throughout, which creates an excellent opportunity to personalise finishes and reconfigure spaces to modern family living standards. The building dates from the 1980s with double glazing installed after 2002, cavity walls and gas central heating via a boiler and radiators. Buyers should budget for refurbishment work to kitchens, bathrooms and general modernisation to unlock the property’s full potential.
Location is a key strength: easy access to Woking town centre and fast rail links to London, nearby outstanding and independent schools, plus local leisure amenities including golf clubs and towpath walks along the River Wey and Basingstoke Canal. The area is affluent and well-served for broadband and mobile signal, but note the immediate neighbourhood records above-average crime and council tax is described as quite expensive.
Overall, this is a roomy family home with a large private plot and strong commuter convenience, suited to purchasers looking to renovate and create a long-term family residence. Early inspection is recommended for anyone seeking generous space, garden privacy, and scope to add value through refurbishment or extension (subject to planning).
