A substantial detached house within attractive surrounding gardens at the end of a private road of only 13 exclusive properties. Large driveway, detached garage, several outbuildings and a beautiful swimming pool. Offered with no onward chain and scope to modernise. Annexe potential on the ground floor.

Pelham is a very special house, it has been a beloved family home for over 50 years, and it?s easy to understand why. Situated in grounds of over 0.6 acres, which are level and have been carefully landscaped and meticulously maintained over the years.

It is well positioned at the end of a Private Road, with no passing traffic. Mature hedging offers additional screening from anyone who does happen to walk by. A gated entrance leads you onto a driveway sweeping up the left hand side of the plot to a detached double garage and detached workshop, the front gardens are extensive, incredibly private and mainly laid to lawn.

The front door opens into a spacious reception hall with wc tucked away close by, a wide opening takes you into a double aspect reception room which makes a great dining room. Beyond this is the kitchen, a good size room with an ample range of drawer and cupboard storage, a door takes you out to a covered area linking the house, garage and gardens. The central sitting room has a large recessed fireplace and enjoys views over the front garden. It has a wide opening though to a 22′ wide garden room with bi-folding doors opening onto the rear garden.

A large extension to the side is ideally suited as an annexe, but can easily be assimilated into family life, or indeed would make a great work from home space. It enjoys views over (and has patio doors opening onto) the front gardens. There is a large open plan horseshoe space which can be used as bedroom, living room and dining area. The kitchen has been converted to a utility room currently but the potential use is easy to see. Finally there is an en suite bathroom.

All the main bedrooms are on the first floor, off of a large central landing which in turn has access to a large loft with scope to extend into if desired (subject to any planning constraints); it conveniently already has a window in situ.

All of the four bedrooms are doubles with vanity sinks in place, the master additionally having a shower unit. The family bathroom is of a good size, with a large airing cupboard adjacent to it.

The house enjoys over 2,600 sq feet of accommodation and the versatility it provides would suit most family needs and demands.

The grounds sweep around three sides of the house and offer generous lawns, mature herbaceous borders, shrubs and trees. To the front of the house is a deep lawn edged with mature shrubs and rhododendrons providing a riot of colour in the spring. To one side is the driveway and garage whilst to the other the lawn extends around to the back garden. At the back of the rear garden is a lovely open air swimming pool with associated terrace and pool house, this is edged by mature shrubs and acers, a relaxing spot in which to exercise or have family fun. Adjacent to the house is a large patio area covered by a pergola, providing dappled sunlight for al fresco dining. There is plenty of space for both a dining table and garden sofas for relaxing. There are several outbuildings and a large greenhouse.

Pelham is tucked away at the end of a private no through road in the heart of Hindhead, walking distance of the local parade of shops and the surrounding National Trust wood/heathland at Highcombe Edge, The Golden Valley, Nutcombe Valley and The Devils Punchbowl.

Hindhead is a small historic village, situated between the larger towns of Farnham and Haslemere, both having good high street shopping and main line rail connections to London. Access to the A3 is easy, with motorway style connections to London, the M25, the South Coast, as well as Gatwick, Heathrow and Southampton airports.

Hindhead benefits from many acres of protected countryside, owned by the National Trust, the Devil?s Punchbowl (being one) which is a designated area of outstanding natural beauty. A small selection of shops and services, including the local primary school can be found within walking distance in Beacon Hill.

Regarding schooling, there is an exceptional choice of schools in the area, including The Royal Senior School, St Edmund?s, The Royal Junior School and Amesbury at Hindhead as well as Brookham and Highfield in Liphook. Other schools include Charterhouse at Godalming, Barrow Hills and King Edward?s at Witley, and Bedales and Cranleigh School slightly further afield.

Close by, there are several Golf Courses, including Hindhead Golf Course which was founded in 1904 by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle. Further sporting facilities include racing at Goodwood and Fontwell, polo at Cowdray Park and sailing on Frensham Ponds and off the south coast at Chichester Harbour.
