This impressive character home, built in 1892, spans over 6,000 sqft and presents a unique investment opportunity for those with a vision for renovation. Retaining numerous original features, the property is rich in character and sits on nearly 2 acres of grounds that offer scenic views. The home has not been available on the market for more than sixty years, signaling its long-held value in the community.
Upon entering, you are greeted by a spacious entrance hall featuring a grand staircase and galleried landing that fills the space with natural light. The layout includes large reception rooms, perfect for both family gatherings and entertaining guests. The generous kitchen/breakfast room is functional yet could benefit from modernization to elevate its appeal, while an adjoining pantry offers additional storage solutions.
With five well-proportioned bedrooms on the first floor—one being a sizable principal suite with a private study/dressing area—the accommodation is well-suited for families or hosts. Multiple bathrooms throughout enhance convenience for residents and visitors alike.
The property's extensive grounds host not only mature gardens but also various outbuildings including a double garage and storage spaces that can be repurposed into garden rooms or home offices, subject to planning permissions. There’s even a tennis court set among expansive lawns which could provide a lovely recreational space after some refurbishing.
Located in the desirable village of Shackleford within Surrey's beautiful countryside, this property benefits from accessibility to mainline rail services and proximity to reputable schools and local amenities. This combination of space, historical charm, and potential makes it an exciting project for anyone looking to invest in property that they can tailor to modern living while preserving its traditional elegance.
