Lavender Cottage is a historic semi-detached Georgian cottage set on the edge of the Surrey Hills AONB, offering period character alongside practical modern comforts. The ground floor offers a cosy living room with exposed beams and an inglenook fireplace, a south-facing dining room that fills with light, a well-equipped country-style kitchen overlooking the private rear garden, and a versatile study that can serve as a third bedroom. Upstairs are two double bedrooms — the principal with a vaulted ceiling and beams — plus a family bathroom.
This freehold home includes driveway parking and a single garage to the rear, a decent-sized plot and a private patio and garden — rare benefits for a village property. It is chain-free, making it a good option for buyers wanting a quicker move. The village location gives easy access to footpaths, local pubs, basic amenities and nearby train services into London, while Leith Hill and open countryside are on the doorstep.
Buyers should note the cottage’s age and traditional construction: solid brick walls are likely to lack modern cavity insulation and some character features such as low ceilings and smaller rooms persist. Council Tax is Band E and some finishing or energy-efficiency upgrades may be desirable for long-term running costs. Overall, this property will suit someone seeking a characterful village home with scope to modernise while enjoying established outdoor space and parking.
