Wheeler Lane, Witley, Godalming, Surrey, GU8

Impeccably styled and arranged to offer a fantastic work/life balance, the versatile layout of this Witley village home generates a host of possibilities for day to day family life and working from home. The rich warm tones of heritage hues enhance timber detailing and focal point fireplaces, while each of the 3 storeys combine to give a hugely fluid feel. Sitting back from the leafy environs of Wheeler Lane behind a gravel driveway with a planted border, an enclosed entrance porch with classic blackened timbers instantly hints at the charm within. Step inside and you’ll find a solid wood split stable-style door giving additional privacy and character to an excellent sitting room lit by south facing sash widows. A working fireplace nestles within the exposed brickwork of the chimney breast adding a quintessential cottage feel, while the refined stripes of a tastefully chosen carpet run underfoot perfectly complementing the colour scheme. The generous dimensions of this inviting space continue in an adjacent dining room equally suited for day to day meals or evenings spent catching up with friends. Easily accommodating a piano and your wine store with room to spare, it looks out onto the colour and greenery of the garden. An inner hallway makes it easy to step out onto the patio for al fresco meals and leads on to a double aspect Shaker-style kitchen, fully fitted with a double oven and microwave, an induction hob and a dishwasher. Solid wood countertops continue the timber detailing that features throughout and a high vaulted ceiling with a perfectly placed skylight adds a fantastic sense of light and space. Providing ample storage and workspace, the considered u-shaped layout wraps-around with dedicated space for freestanding appliances such as a washing machine, condensing tumble dryer and fridge and freezer. Explore further and upstairs you’ll discover the added bonus of a large family room with lovely garden vistas. A great place to relax and spend quality time together, it also creates the flexibility to have a dedicated home office. Its en suite bathroom echoes the original charm and character of the house with crisp white wall panelling and a heritage suite that includes a pedestal basin and an inset bath with a wide folding screen and overhead shower. The inclusion of a contemporary shower room on the ground floor is hugely convenient for modern family life and busy school mornings. Across the landing a beautiful main bedroom is filled with natural light. Its soft muted tones lend a calm and restful air, and whilst a period fireplace lends a wonderful centrepiece and painted wood wardrobes supply storage. The flow of light and exemplary presentation is echoed up on the second floor where two further double bedrooms stretch out beneath high sloping ceilings. Both have fitted wardrobes of their own and one also benefits from large walk-in store room with a skylight. Outside To the rear of the kitchen a paved patio generates an idyllic spot to enjoy everything from a morning coffee to barbeques and drinks in the summer sun with family and friends. It’s here that you can sit back and admire the garden where a long lawn extends out framed by mature borders stocked with evergreen shrubs, roses, foxgloves and California lilacs (to name but a few). A secure side gate provides back to front access via Honeysuckle Cottage for which the current owners have right of access. Set back from the greenery of Wheeler Lane, walled gravel driveway extends down to the property providing the convenience of off-road parking for two vehicles.
