Description

Nestled on a spacious corner lot within a tranquil cul-de-sac of the charming village of Ripley, this detached home presents an appealing canvas for renovation and expansion. With no onward chain, it offers a unique opportunity for buyers eager to invest in a property where they can truly customize and enhance their living space. The entrance hall opens up to a practical ground floor shower room and leads into a generous sitting room that captures an abundance of natural light from its double-aspect windows. The stone fireplace adds character, while French doors provide seamless access to the garden, perfect for indoor-outdoor living. Adjacent to the sitting area is a dining room that also enjoys pleasant views over the back garden, creating an inviting atmosphere for family gatherings. The kitchen features a range of shaker-style cabinetry complemented by built-in storage and a peninsula breakfast bar, catering well to casual mealtimes. A door connects the kitchen to the outdoor space, which not only includes a well-enclosed garden but also two useful storage rooms at the rear of the large garage. Upstairs comprises four bedrooms, each equipped with built-in storage solutions. Although the family bathroom is currently fully tiled, it presents an opportunity for modernization alongside a separate WC. Surrounding the home are attractive front gardens adorned with mature trees, along with ample driveway parking leading directly to the garage. The wraparound garden provides privacy and potential for landscaping enhancements or expansions (subject to planning permission). This property is strategically located near local amenities including parks, sailing lakes, and traditional pubs—ideal for those who enjoy outdoor activities. The nearby Send village offers essential shops alongside modern facilities such as a medical center and pharmacies. Educational options include reputable primary schools within close reach and excellent secondary schools in nearby areas. Convenient transport links are another highlight; with quick access to both roadways like the A3 and M25 junction 10, plus Woking Station providing frequent trains to London Waterloo in approximately 22 minutes. West Clandon station also serves as an alternative route into central London. This home holds significant renovation potential in an enviable village setting, making it suitable for families seeking space or investors looking for value-enhancing opportunities.
