5 bed detached house for sale

Pickhurst Road, Chiddingfold, Godalming, Surrey GU8

Loxbrook House is a substantial family house that is believed to date back to the 1970s. About 8 years ago, the house was thoughtfully extended and refurbished and now provides a home that offers modern facilities with a classical finish.
The house is entered into a half-panelled reception hall with limestone flooring, leading off is the secondary kitchen. The heart of the house is the fabulous kitchen/breakfast room with shaker style units, an Aga and limestone flooring, plus bifolding doors leading out onto the part covered terrace. The formal drawing room off, has oak flooring, a wood burning stove and bi-folding doors along two walls.
The oak flooring extends into the inner hall, with the family room, laundry and
boot room off.
On the first floor are two bedrooms suites and a further three bedrooms and two family bathrooms.
Outside

To the front of the house is the newly built barn-style garage with electric doors and a substantial roof storage space above.
There is an indoor swimming pool with an adjoining store housing the filtration

Gardens

Loxbrook House is approached through electric wooden gates into a substantial gravelled driveway that fronts both the garage and house. Along two boundaries are borders full of Hydrangeas.
Extending along the southern side of the house is the terrace area with a pergola and planes trees providing a wonderful covered area for entertaining. This abuts both the kitchen/breakfast room and the drawing room.
The terrace continues along the back of the house and swings along the side of the pool building, bordered by lavender beds. The gardens to the rear are both private and laid to lawn, with a substantial weeping willow. Tucked away is a vegetable garden with raised beds and compost bins.
