Set on the edge of Albury and Shere in the Surrey Hills AONB, this late-Victorian semi-detached cottage blends period character with contemporary improvements. The generous kitchen/breakfast room and attached conservatory create bright, flexible family living that opens directly onto a large private garden and patio. Off-street parking and a linked garage add practical convenience for daily life.
The property extends to almost 1,300 sq ft including outbuildings and is presented chain free and largely turnkey. Two double bedrooms occupy the first floor, the principal suite offering an ensuite shower and walk-in dressing area; the second bedroom benefits from a Jack-and-Jill bathroom. Neutral decor, double glazing and a combination of wood, parquet and tile floors make the house easy to move into.
Notable value drivers include a sizeable workshop/outbuilding (potential home office or guest space subject to planning), a garage that could be converted (STPP) and scope to extend further (STPP) for growing families. The location provides excellent access to local bridleways, highly-regarded independent schools nearby and straightforward road links via the A25 and A3 into Guildford and London.
Buyers should note the cottage's solid brick construction means external wall insulation is likely required for major thermal improvements, and council tax is above average. While presented in good condition, any larger alterations will need planning consent given the rural AONB setting. Overall, this is a spacious, characterful home suited to families seeking countryside lifestyle with easy road access.
