Godalming, Surrey GU7

Tucked away within the highly regarded and historic Wyatts Almshouses development, this beautifully presented Grade II listed cottage offers an outstanding blend of character, charm and modern-day practicality, all positioned within the very heart of Godalming town centre.

The property immediately impresses with its striking period façade of exposed Bargate stone, timber detailing and traditional brickwork, together with an attractive covered entrance porch creating a warm and welcoming first impression.

Internally, the accommodation flows beautifully and, as shown on the floorplan, centres around a wonderfully characterful reception/dining room. This inviting space is rich in period features including exposed ceiling timbers, deep-set leaded light windows and a magnificent inglenook-style fireplace with exposed brick surround creating a superb focal point to the room. The layout provides ample space for both sitting and dining areas whilst maintaining a cosy and atmospheric feel throughout.

Positioned just off the reception room is the kitchen, thoughtfully fitted with a range of shaker-style units complemented by contrasting work surfaces and integrated appliances, whilst retaining the cottage’s traditional charm with exposed beams overhead and a pleasant outlook from the leaded light window. A stable-style door provides direct access outside, enhancing both practicality and day-to-day living.

The bedroom is particularly well-presented and enjoys a calm and comfortable feel with exposed timbers continuing the character theme, together with fitted storage and attractive leaded light windows allowing for excellent natural light.

Completing the accommodation is a beautifully appointed shower room fitted with a contemporary suite comprising a curved glazed shower enclosure, vanity unit, WC and stylish tiling, all carefully balanced against the property’s retained character features including exposed brickwork and original recessed detailing.

Externally, the property benefits from a charming and surprisingly generous courtyard-style garden incorporating lawned and seating areas together with established planting and timber fencing creating an attractive and enclosed setting ideal for outdoor relaxation and entertaining. Of particular note is the detached outbuilding/utility room which has been correctly fitted to accommodate laundry appliances and additional storage, freeing up valuable internal space within the cottage itself.

The property occupies an enviable central position within Godalming, just moments from the historic High Street with its excellent range of independent shops, cafés, restaurants and everyday amenities. Godalming mainline station is within easy walking distance and provides direct services to London Waterloo, making the property ideal for commuters, downsizers, first-time buyers or those seeking a lock-up-and-leave character home. The surrounding area also offers beautiful countryside walks including the nearby River Wey and Surrey Hills.
