4 bedroom house

A wonderful four double bedroom family house nestling in around 1.4 acres that is tucked away in the ever popular village of Shamley Green with a world famous former resident.


Full of beautiful character, the house lends itself to home working and to families of all ages. With an in and out driveway behind substantial electric gates, there is both a good front garden and large rear. Rising to the rear, the garden is laid to lawn and is bordered by gardens, woodland and pastureland. There are several patios and seating areas and other buildings with lapsed planning permissions.

Internally, beamed and often double height ceilings and natural light describe this property succinctly. Each room has its individual character and laid out like a Tardis, the accommodation seems endless. The beautifully painted bespoke kitchen has masses of work surfaces, a separate larder cupboard and leads to both the garden conservatory and the dining room. The family room has its own entrance and can be shut off from the rest of the house creating the perfect live-in staff quarters with an ensuite bedroom above. On the west wing of the house there is a further reception room, a cloakroom and a home office overlooking the garden. Upstairs, each of the bedrooms is a good double size and there are three ensuite bathrooms.

Mentioned within his autobiography, Tanyard Farm is Richard Branson’s old family home and has potential to expand as required with lapsed planning for additional buildings in the garden.

Located in the heart of Shamley Green, near Wonersh, Blackheath, Cranleigh and Farley Green, this is a popular area of pretty, conservation villages in the midst of the Surrey Hills Area of Natural Beauty just over 5 miles to the south of Guildford.

The property is just a short distance from the cricket green, village store, cafe/delicatessen and two local pubs. Nearby villages of Shamley Green and Wonersh provide a number of popular pubs, doctors' surgery and a selection of small shops for everyday needs.

Guildford and Godalming (approx. 5 miles) provide more extensive leisure and shopping facilities as does Cranleigh village (approx. 4 miles). There are fast train services from Guildford and Godalming to London/Waterloo from about 35 minutes, and the A3 provides easy access to the M25, London, Heathrow and Gatwick Airports.

There is a vast choice of excellent schools in the area, and the surrounding countryside, including Blackheath and Winterfold, provide plenty of walking, cycling and riding facilities through some of the county’s most scenic countryside.
