Set just outside Albury village, this detached four-bedroom period home occupies about 0.35 acres of very private, mature grounds with far-reaching countryside outlooks. The ground floor offers a generous sitting room with a central wood-burning stove, a separate dining room and a kitchen opening onto a paved terrace and south-east facing garden. A double garage, driveway parking for approximately two cars and a gated entrance complete the practical aspects of the site.
The house is well cared for but presents clear scope to upgrade or extend (subject to planning). The large garden, summer room and outbuildings give flexibility for family living, home working or sympathetic enlargement. The plot’s mature oak and established hedging are major amenity assets but may limit roofline changes without arboricultural advice.
Practical drawbacks are straightforward: broadband speeds are very slow, council tax is relatively high, and any extension or change will require the usual planning consents. The location, however, benefits from excellent mobile signal, low flood risk and quick road or rail links to Guildford and beyond — appealing to buyers seeking a tranquil rural base within commuting distance of London.
