Set within the Surrey Hills Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, this Victorian red-brick cottage offers genuine period character, high ceilings and a large garden in a quiet rural hamlet. The house has generous room proportions, a charming living room with a fireplace and mature, secluded outdoor space with off-street parking.
The property is a clear renovation project: it requires a full refurbishment throughout, including likely upgrades to insulation, services and finishes. Heating is via an LPG boiler and the cavity walls currently have no insulation (assumed). There is one bathroom and three bedrooms over two floors, suitable for a small family or buyer wanting to create a bespoke rural home.
Practical considerations are explicit: the sale is best suited to cash buyers and the house sits in an area with a medium flooding risk. On the positive side the hamlet is affluent, broadband and mobile signals are strong, and local schools and countryside amenities are nearby, making this a rare opportunity to restore a period cottage within a protected landscape.
This property will suit someone seeking a renovation project with character—either a homeowner prepared to invest in upgrading fabric and services, or a buyer looking to create a tailored country retreat. The work required is material, so allow budget for structural, mechanical and insulation improvements alongside cosmetic refurbishment.
