This impressive 8-bedroom Grade II listed country house, known as The Clockhouse, spans over 5366 sq. ft. and boasts a rich historical significance dating back to the 14th century. Nestled within approximately 2.5 acres of picturesque grounds, including a walled garden and a substantial lake, this property presents a unique opportunity for renovation and investment. The extensive two-storey barn, measuring 2574 sq. ft., comes with planning permission for conversion into a four-bedroom dwelling (Mole Valley MO/2023/1092), enhancing its potential further.
Internally, the main residence features character-filled spacious rooms adorned with period details typical of its era. The ground floor offers an inviting central panelled hallway leading to a vast open plan kitchen/breakfast room with an inglenook fireplace, ideal for family gatherings. Additionally, it houses formal drawing and dining rooms that exude grandeur.
The upper levels provide flexible living arrangements suitable for various needs, whether as additional bedrooms or casual reception areas. While the property retains much of its original charm, it does require updating and some maintenance work to restore it to its former glory.
Surrounded by expansive lawns dotted with shrubs and trees, the outdoor space is equally captivating. The sweeping gravel driveway offers plenty of parking space and leads to stunning views of the lake and access through a delightful rose-covered walkway.
Located in a rural setting near Capel village, residents benefit from local amenities while being just a short drive away from larger shopping centres in Dorking and Horsham. This property represents a remarkable canvas for anyone looking to invest in a historic home that genuinely marries luxury with opportunity.
