Set at the end of a private drive within just over an acre, Yew Tree Cottage is a characterful Victorian red‑brick cottage offering substantial gardens, paddock and a detached contemporary annexe. The main house provides flexible living with two principal reception rooms, a generous kitchen/dining area, utility and three/six bedrooms across the accommodation layout (listed as 3–4 bedrooms with additional reception/bed space potential). Mature planting, a gravel terrace and sweeping lawn deliver privacy and excellent outdoor entertaining space.
Practical strengths include off‑street parking, detached stables and useful ancillary buildings; the annexe with vaulted ceiling, kitchen area and shower room is ideal for guests, home working or multi‑generational use. The property sits in the Surrey Hills AONB between Guildford and Godalming, combining rural tranquillity with straightforward access to mainline stations and local amenities.
Buyers should note a few material points: broadband speeds are very slow, the wooden outbuilding is overgrown and requires maintenance, and council tax is described as quite expensive. Internally the house presents good period character but would benefit from updating in places and any buyer seeking extension or conversion should check planning constraints for the AONB.
This home will suit buyers seeking a private family cottage with room for hobbies, equestrian or home enterprise, or those after annexe accommodation. It offers a rare chance to occupy a peaceful village setting with generous land, while allowing for sympathetic modernisation to unlock further value.
