Description

Positioned on one of Haslemere's most sought after roads, The Stables is a truly unique home, built in 1983 and occupying a fabulous setting with a delightful outlook over its garden and grounds.

The main house offers extensive accommodation extending to approximately 3500 sq ft and is ideally suited to families. The principal reception rooms enjoy a southerly aspect and include a generous sized sitting room measuring over 24 ft in length with a beautiful fireplace and access outside via two sets of French doors. There are two further reception rooms comprising a dual aspect family room and a well appointed study with a wine cellar accessed via a spiral staircase.
The open plan kitchen / dining room is beautifully appointed with bespoke cabinetry, AGA and ample space for dining and entertaining. This leads to a truly spectacular orangery, filled with natural light and easy access outside to the patio and gardens beyond. This comfortable space can be used all year round featuring a contemporary style log burning stove and seating areas. A laundry room and a cloakroom off the welcoming entrance hall complete the downstairs accommodation.

Five bedrooms can be found on the first floor along with the family bathroom. The triple aspect principal bedroom enjoys wonderful proportions, built-in wardrobes and an en suite with bath, shower and twin sinks. Bedroom two has the benefit of an en suite shower room. Bedroom five has access to its own private balcony, a superb spot to enjoy the garden view.

The charming cottage was originally a timber framed former stable block which was sympathetically rebuilt in 1992 and provides excellent ancillary accommodation for multigenerational living, visiting guests or an Airbnb opportunity. The annexe has two bedrooms on separate sides of the property each with their own kitchen facilities. There is a large drawing room with an attractive fireplace and direct access to patio with gardens beyond. On the opposite side of the cottage there is a separate cosy sitting room/cinema room, bedroom and kitchen.

A memorable feature within the secondary accommodation is the indoor swimming pool complex with impressive vaulted ceiling, skylights, a beautiful heated pool with mosaic tiling and a freestanding hot tub. There is space to relax and unwind and enjoy the garden view.

The gardens have been beautifully kept and the properties are set within an exceptional plot of approximately 7 acres. The formal gardens can be accessed from the main house with well kept lawns and abundance of colour including a lavender walkway and flowering beds.

Both properties are surrounded by a beautifully laid patio. There are two natural ponds to the east and the west, the larger with a jetty and a cabin. Separate from the property is a private, gently sloping paddock with former stables and tack room.

There are a number of outbuildings including a delightful summer house.

The properties are accessed via electric wooden gates leading to a gravel driveway with parking for multiple vehicles.
