Lockfield Cottages, St. Johns Road, Woking, Surrey, GU21

A fabulous semi-detached character cottage, occupying a highly desirable canal side location near to Woodend Bridge, offering three-storey, three bedroom, two reception room, two bath/shower room accommodation. The property also benefits from a separate studio annex with kitchen and shower room, fantastic for guests, a family member living at the property or the possibility of renting the space out. There is also a double length garage/workshop attached.

You can either access the property from an added porch to the front, which faces out onto the Basingstoke Canal or you can access the property via the rear where the parking is. The ground floor has a front aspect dining room with feature fireplace, a stunning family/living room which opens up to a sunny orangery. This space streams with natural light and looks out onto woodland and the side garden. The kitchen is very much in keeping with the character of the property with a modern twist of built-in appliances and stone worktops. The kitchen opens to the utility room and there is an additional downstairs W/C.

The first floor has two bedrooms, a dressing room, and a stylish bathroom whilst the top floor has had a quality loft conversion with contemporary en-suite shower room. There is also a unique feature of a large velux window that opens up into a private balcony with stunning views. Outside, the front garden is screened with mature hedging and has a gate. The property sits at the end meaning it has a larger corner plot, completely secluded by trees, hedging and flowers. There is also a resident car park with another allocated space for the cottage. The situation is very pleasant and certainly desirable, as a walk along the tow path will take you to St Johns village in one direction and Woking centre in the other.

Woking has a thriving town centre offering extensive shopping, dining and leisure facilities including The New Victoria Theatre & Cinema, and the Lightbox Gallery. For golfers there is a choice of clubs including, Woking Golf Club (one of the oldest in the U.K. founded in 1893), Westhill, Hoebridge, Worplesdon, Chobham and Foxhills (including spa and hotel). Both the Basingstoke Canal and the River Wey are close by for walking, cycling and fishing (permit required), whilst nearby Chobham Common is a National Nature Reserve.
The area is well served by both state and private schools including: Goldsworth Primary, Hoe Bridge, St Andrews, Greenfield, Halstead, Woking High School, St Dunstan’s, Hoe Valley and St John the Baptist School.
