Description
Long Spinney is a striking country home understood to have been built in 1927 with generous proportions and well planned accommodation presented over three floors.
The property has been well maintained and is being offered to the market in the first time in over 25 years.
There are four beautiful reception rooms and a study on the ground floor, each of these rooms are wonderfully light, all enjoying a pleasant aspect and the accommodation flows particularly well and is versatile in its arrangement and use. The reception room and dining rooms have open fires, sash windows with views over the garden. The beautifully fitted library faces the front of the house.
The kitchen/breakfast room has been fitted with traditional oak cabinetry, has the benefit of underfloor heating and ample space for informal dining. Off the kitchen is the den/ family room and utility room.
To the first floor is the impressive principal bedroom suite with an adjoining dressing room, double aspect and en suite bathroom. Across the hall are three further bedrooms (one en suite), a family bathroom and a second study.
On the second floor are two additional bedrooms, a large en suite bathroom and a storage area in the eaves.
Outside, the house sits well within its plot and is accessed via a long private drive giving a sense of arrival. Sweeping lawns surround the house and the delightful terrace is accessed from the sitting room and the library. The gardens are tranquil and private, framed in mature hedging and specimen trees.
The property has a separate annexe with a first floor studio and garage, workshop and store below. There is also an outside WC connected to the main house.
Location
The historic village of Gomshall nestles at the foot of the North Downs and is in the heart of the Surrey Hills Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. Tucked away down a semi rural country lane, Long Spinney occupies a delightfully tranquil location surrounded by its beautiful grounds. The nearby villages of Shere, Peaslake, Abinger and Forest Green offer between them a selection of local shopping for daily needs including two excellent farm shops. Cranleigh has a broader selection of amenities including a Marks and Spencer Food Hall, while for the full range of shopping, leisure and cultural facilities, Dorking, and Guildford are within easy reach.
Both these towns have mainline stations that provide direct services into London with journey times (from Guildford) from around 37 minutes whilst the Tonbridge – Reading line at Gomshall provides a useful east-west link and also connects with Gatwick Airport.
There is a wide choice of schools in the local area including Belmont Preparatory, Duke of Kent, Cranleigh School, St Teresa’s, and Hurtwood House among many others.
Recreational opportunities in the area include polo at Hurtwood Park, golf at a number of clubs within easy reach and a choice of well-equipped sport and leisure centres at Dorking, Cranleigh or Guildford.
In addition, the surrounding Surrey Hills provides some super walking, cycling and riding opportunities.
