5 bedroom house for sale

Overview

Character homes of this nature were once a common sight in and around Weybridge, they are now becoming rarer and rarer. This is a gilt edged opportunity to acquire a much loved family home with huge scope for expansion and improvement.

The original tiled entrance hall has an abundance of storage and leads through to all the ground floor rooms. The large bay fronted sitting room is positioned at the front of the property and boasts high ceilings with the original cornicing and open fire, the perfect retreat for a cold winters evening or somewhere to retire to during warmer months. The second reception is currently configured as a dining room, once again with a high ceiling, original cornicing and feature fireplace.

Three large double bedrooms, along with a large family bathroom, boasting separate shower, bath, his and hers vanity area, bidet and a separate wc.
