Summary - Pond Cottage, The Green, Shamley Green, GUILDFORD GU5 0UA
4 bed 3 bath Detached
Spacious Victorian village home with large gardens and studio, ideal for families.
About 0.28-acre landscaped gardens with detached studio and garden store
Set on about 0.28 acres in the heart of a sought-after Surrey Hills village, Pond Cottage is a spacious period family home offering generous reception rooms, a conservatory and a detached studio. The principal bedroom enjoys a balcony and en suite; three further bedrooms and two shower rooms provide flexible family accommodation across well-proportioned floors. Mature, landscaped gardens and a separate garden store create a private outdoor oasis with scope for gardening or children's play.
The house retains traditional red-brick character and high ceilings, delivering strong period appeal and abundant natural light through large sash-style windows. At approximately 2,750 sq ft, the layout suits families wanting separate living spaces — sitting room, dining room, family room and kitchen/breakfast area — and benefits from village convenience: short walk to shop, pub, church and local schools.
Buyers should note the property’s age and construction: built before 1900 with solid brick walls (no recorded insulation) and double glazing of unknown age. Energy-efficiency improvements and possible insulating upgrades may be advisable. Council tax is very expensive. Also consider that some rooms and systems may need modernising to match contemporary standards, offering opportunity for sympathetic refurbishment rather than turnkey living.
For families seeking character, outdoor space and village living in a very affluent area, Pond Cottage offers a rare blend of period charm and practical room sizes. There is potential to enhance thermal performance and update services over time; an additional 0.54-acre parcel may be available to purchase, increasing garden and scope (confirm availability separately).
