Foxes Path, Sutton Green, Guildford, GU4

This character cottage set in the sought after Village of Sutton Green offers an enviable setting and a tranquil location with picturesque views from every aspect.

The property strikes the perfect balance between a rural setting and prime commuting position into London. It sits on the corner of the Village Green on a private road with meadows to the back.

The house is a character semi-detached property which has a substantial 20’9”x16’ living area with an exposed brick fireplace with traditional style gas burner, charming oak tie beams and supporting posts with attractive arch braces, leaded light windows to the front aspect with floor to ceiling glass sliding doors on the opposite side of the room overlooking the charming south east facing garden and open fields beyond.

The kitchen/breakfast room has double aspect windows and door out to the garden and access to a converted garage now offering a studio/home office of 17’x16’ size with double doors.

There is a downstairs cloakroom off the entrance lobby and stairs to the first floor. Upstairs there are two double bedrooms with an abundance of exposed oak beams and a bathroom. All the views are again a joy to take in.

The gardens wrap around the house and offer plenty of well-designed places to sit and breathe in the fresh country air to enjoy this unique setting. There is a large lawn area to the side of the house, walled garden, patio and several paths giving a wide array of outdoor space, all cleverly organised and planted with features such as multiple fruit trees.

It is wonderfully peaceful and surrounded by open countryside. Within a few hundred yards walk is Triggs Lock on the Wey Canal, providing walks to Guildford in one direction and towards Send (with New Inn pub on the river bank) and West Byfleet (where it merges with the Basingstoke Canal), in the other.

If you yearn a bit of country living but need to be able to travel to London with a 24 minute train journey, or half an hour rail bus service to London Heathrow, and have all the benefits of nearby towns, this is indeed a rare opportunity to be fully indulged.

Sutton Green is surrounded by Green Belt and it has an active village community offering various events throughout the year along with a village green providing a children’s play area and a proactive village pub serving a comprehensive menu. This is an historic area which is well known for the Grade I listed Tudor Manor House built C.1525, Sutton Place. The land being bequeathed to Sir Richard Weston by Henry VIII and with Anne Boleyn having resided there for a short period. Within a five mile radius there are abundant amenities, with theatres in both Woking and Guildford. Woking has a leisure centre and a public indoor swimming pool and a state of the art sports facility at Hoe Valley school called Sportsbox whilst Guildford also has a theatre and leisure centre but with the addition of an ice rink and nearby an open air Lido. There are multi-screen cinemas in both towns. The two areas offer different but complimenting styles of shopping. The train service from Woking offers a fast and frequent service to London (24 mins) and AirLink coach to Heathrow and the nearby M25 offers convenient connections and easy access to both Heathrow and Gatwick whilst the A3 offers various routes south and down to the coast or directly up into London.
