Set within over 2 acres of gardens and grounds, Stanners Hill Cottage enjoys a private setting and, combined with the spacious living space, outdoor swimming pool and tennis court, is perfect for a family that enjoys entertaining and an outdoor lifestyle.

A spacious and welcoming reception hall provides access to the light and expansive accommodation on the ground floor, including the tranquil dual-aspect drawing room with its exposed brick fireplace as a focal point. Double doors provide access to a good sized study where an additional set of doors open the room out to the rear sun terrace. The formal dining room also features double doors opening onto the terrace and, combined with the kitchen/breakfast room and two adjoining reception rooms with direct access to the gardens, provides superb dining/entertaining space. The generously proportioned kitchen/breakfast room has ample space for a breakfast table and is comprehensively equipped with a range of units, a central island, granite worksurfaces, integrated appliances and an Aga, and features a bay window with built-in seating. The ground floor further comprises a useful boot room and a cloakroom.

Situated on the first floor is a bright and spacious principal bedroom with double doors opening out to a balcony that affords wonderful views over the property’s gardens and countryside beyond. The en suite bathroom is of a good size and benefits from a separate shower. There are five further bedrooms, one with an en suite shower room and two with access to a Jack and Jill shower room, and a family bathroom.

In addition to the main house, there is a detached poolside building housing a one-bedroom annexe, a utility room, temperature controlled wine cellar, a pool plant room and a shower.

With a pleasing outlook over farmland and countryside beyond, the property is located just to the north-east of sought-after Chobham village centre, which offers a good selection of local shops and amenities, including a post office, pharmacy, cafés, restaurants and public houses. Leisure facilities include cricket, rugby and tennis clubs and for golf enthusiasts, Chobham Golf Club offers a popular course in a stunning setting; Foxhills Country Club and Golf Club is just 2 miles away. Further more extensive amenities may be found in Ascot, Windsor, Camberley, Woking and Guildford.

For those with a passion for equestrian sports, there is racing and polo to enjoy at Ascot and Windsor. Scenic walks may be enjoyed on the adjacent nature reserve at Chobham Common.

Communication links are excellent with the property being conveniently situated within easy reach of the M3 (J3) and the M25, providing links to major road networks, and Heathrow and Gatwick Airports. Rail access to London (Waterloo) is available from Woking and Longcross stations.

The property is approached via a 5-bar timber gate opening onto an expansive gravelled driveway and parking area, with well-stocked, brick raised flower beds providing visual interest. The driveway continues on to provide access to the garage, annexe building, barn and paddock. The house is set within a private lane and is screened by high-level hedging, thereby enjoying a high degree of seclusion.

To the rear, the gardens are a fine feature of the property and comprise an extensive area of formal lawn, along with more 'natural' grassed areas, beautifully planted flower beds/borders, and a kitchen garden.

A paved terrace spans the rear of the house and includes the swimming pool area that is sheltered by the natural contours of the house and takes full advantage of the southerly aspect. Adjacent to the annexe building there is a barn-style building providing machinery/storage space. A discreetly positioned tennis court lies nearby.
