Grovelands, Lower Bourne, Farnham, Surrey, GU10

Excellent modern home with potential in a tucked away location, about 640m from South Farnham School.

Description

This excellent detached four bedroom house is located in a peaceful close, convenient to the Lower Bourne village amenities, village green and well-regarded schools including South Farnham Infant School which is about 640 metres away.

The house sits on a plot of about a third of an acre and the accommodation measures just over 2,500 sq ft. The property offers versatile and flexibly designed living accommodation and provides ample space for a growing family and the potential to add further value and extend (subject to obtaining necessary planning consents). Inside the house is well-presented and there is ample opportunity for personalization allowing new owners to infuse their own style into the interiors.

The covered porch arrives into a spacious entrance hall with parquet flooring leading to the principal reception rooms. To the right is a light, triple aspect sitting room with a fireplace and double doors to the dining room, also with parquet flooring.

The adjacent kitchen has windows overlooking the garden, a walk in pantry and access to an outdoor terrace; there is scope to create a larger kitchen/dining space (STPP) if combined with the dining area. At the front of the house is a good sized ground floor study and there is also a cloakroom. A staircase from the dining room leads to a useful hobby room, or home office space, with access to the rear garden.

Upstairs the generous landing leads to the principal bedroom, which has views over the front and rear gardens and benefits from fitted wardrobes and an en suite shower room. There are three further bedrooms, served by a family bathroom.

Outside, there is parking for several cars at the front of the house and the drive sweeps round the rear to a large garage which could also house two cars or provide useful storage/workshop space. The back garden is mainly lawned with mature trees and shrubs.
