Runwick House is a distinguished Grade II listed Georgian country residence with origins dating back to the late 18th century, accompanied by 19th-century alterations. Spanning three floors above a cellar, this property boasts a light and airy ambiance throughout. The main reception areas, including the drawing and dining rooms, feature intricate cornicing, elegant fireplaces, and expansive sash windows that flood the space with natural light. Double doors lead out to a south-facing terrace, offering a charming spot for outdoor gatherings.
The layout includes a cozy sitting room complete with a fireplace, while the well-appointed kitchen/breakfast room showcases a gas-fired AGA—an ideal setting for culinary pursuits. The rear of the house is equipped with practical domestic offices such as a utility room, boot room/secondary kitchen, ample storage areas, and a spacious pantry. The cellar adds further utility with its wine cellar and multiple store rooms.
On the first floor, the principal bedroom is enhanced by a bay window overlooking the gardens, complemented by an adjacent shower room. Three additional bedrooms share access to a family bathroom on this level. The second floor offers another five bedrooms plus a bathroom, presenting an opportunity for versatile living arrangements or potential rental income.
Significant investment potential lies in converting portions of the property into self-contained living spaces. For example, merging the secondary kitchen area with one or two of the upstairs bedrooms could create an independent annexe that caters to multigenerational living or guest accommodations.
Outbuildings adjacent to the main house add another layer of opportunity for renovation or repurposing. A substantial garage accommodates six cars, while an original stable block serves as storage but could be transformed for various uses. Additionally, the long barn features both workshop space on the ground floor and a vast vaulted upper area that can be tailored for entertaining or other functions—subject to planning permissions.
Surrounded by mature gardens primarily located to the south of the property, Runwick House offers tasteful landscaping that includes a raised terrace adorned with flower beds and flanked by trees and lawns leading down to parkland areas. A walled garden further enhances outdoor appeal with fruit trees and space for vegetable planting. Beyond these formal gardens lie extensive grassy fields with independent road access—a valuable asset for future development options.
Located in the quaint hamlet of Runwick on the Surrey-Hampshire border, this property enjoys proximity to scenic countryside while remaining close to essential amenities found in Farnham—a town celebrated for its historic architecture and vibrant shopping scene which includes both Waitrose and
