Detached house for sale in Shackleford, Godalming, Surrey GU8

Owned by our clients since 1971, Little Court is a much-loved family home which offers an incoming purchaser the opportunity to stamp their own mark on what is already a beautiful village house set in incredible gardens.

The front door opens into a light and bright dining hall off which is a stunning 32-foot drawing room with a small ante room off it as well as a study and conservatory.

The kitchen/breakfast room has a lovely square dining room off it as well as a comfortable sitting room with lift access to the first floor. There are a series of domestic rooms including a laundry, utility room and boot room with stairs up to a games room.

On the first floor is the principal bedroom with dressing room and bathroom. Adjacent to this is a wide landing with large airing cupboard at one end. This whole area could be turned into substantial suite if so desired. There are four further bedrooms with two bath/shower rooms.

In addition to the house is a very useful two bedroom cottage ideal for relatives, staff or guests.

Little Court is approached off The Street into a courtyard with ample parking in front of the cottage, double garage, and house. The gardens are predominantly walled and are truly incredible and have been beautifully laid out to include a substantial south-facing York stone terrace, large areas of lawn and a secluded walled garden which used to have a swimming pool (since filled in).

A key feature on the western boundary is a rare 'crinkle-crankle' brick wall which is a continuous series of bows.
