Description

Nestled in the highly desirable Wonersh Park, and just a brief walk from the village amenities, is this magical four-bedroom thatched family home. Lotties strikes the ideal balance between convenience and tranquillity. Wonersh village, known for its charming streets and local conveniences such as the shop, doctor's surgery, pharmacy, and the popular Grantley Arms pub, sets a serene scene for daily life.

Dating back to the 1930s, Lotties boasts a range of charming features, from its beamed ceilings to its oak-framed leaded light windows. The spacious reception hall/family room serves as the heart of the home, leading to a cosy sitting room, a study, and a well-appointed kitchen opening onto a charming conservatory. Upstairs, four bedrooms offer serene views of the lush gardens, providing a peaceful retreat.

Outside, the expansive garden of nearly half an acre provides a fabulous space for outdoor enjoyment and relaxation, with a large summer house that might make a good addition to the house (subject to planning).

At the front, the driveway leads to a parking and turning area, with gated access to the garage and a convenient wine store tucked away at the rear.
The house and garden are perfectly placed away from the main road and hidden from the world behind a beautiful wall of trees.

When asked about owning a thatched house the current owners talk about the romantic look of the house, especially when it snows. “The overhang of the thatch protects the walls and keeps the house lovely and dry. We didn’t know until we moved in that it acts as a natural insulator so the house stays cool in the summer and warm in the winter. We think it saves money on the heating bills.” “We had the thatch done recently so the new owners will not have to do anything for quite a while”.

The village of Wonersh is only about 3 miles from Guildford which sits just outside of the M25 and the nearby A3 takes you up to London in just 45 minutes. It offers fast train services to Central London and is equidistant between Heathrow and Gatwick airports
Wonersh sits in The Surrey Hills area of outstanding natural beauty with endless areas to walk, including some of the most glorious countryside such as The North and South Downs and nearby Newlands Corner.

Nearby Guildford with its famous 16th century cobbled high street boasts some of the best shopping facilities with its mix of independent and high street shops alike. The Yvonne Arnaud theatre hosts some incredible productions and there is plenty of entertainment to be had at G Live at the top of the high street.

With its fabulous high street, glorious countryside and fast transport links It is no wonder that Guildford and its surrounding villages are some of the most desirable areas in the country to live.

Education is well-catered for, with top-notch schools like Charterhouse, Prior’s Field, St. Catherine’s, Cranleigh, Aldro, and St. Hilary’s nearby.
