Features and description
- Freehold
A truly individual house; whose origins date from 1895, and are part cottage, part coach house now fully converted and extended to provide a super attached family home with detached ancillary accommodation and the most stunning grounds of approx. 1.3 acres, featuring a 100 year old walled garden. Enjoying a quiet rural position with no passing traffic on one of Headleys’ most esteemed roads.
The current owners have enjoyed living and raising their family at Windridge Cottage for over 40 years, and it is easy to both understand why and appreciate the love and devotion they have put into it. The grounds are very special indeed and discussed further on. Approached via a sweeping drive into a courtyard area at the front of the house there is substantial parking available.
The front door opens into a spacious hallway, which is a great space for welcoming guests. Immediately to the left is the kitchen, which is well fitted with a range of drawer and cupboard storage, butlers sink plus integrated oven, microwave, gas hob and fridge freezer with space for a dishwasher. A door from the kitchen takes you into the dining room which is south facing, overlooking the gardens, and benefits from a wood burning stove within an attractive fireplace, this is open plan to a snug/family area with patio doors opening onto the garden.
The drawing room commands admiration, it is double aspect with south facing views over the gardens and patio doors opening onto a paved terrace, with a lovely inglenook fireplace fitted with a wood burning stove. This is a great space for the family to gather for celebrations or simply to enjoy time together of an evening. Off of this room are a study and reading room providing useful working spaces. The final room on the ground floor is the utility room which is accessed from the hall.
Once on the first floor there is a generous master bedroom, south facing with those aforementioned views! It has both built in storage and a walk in dressing area in addition to an en suite with both bath and shower. There are four further good sized bedrooms, a double aspect family bathroom, and useful storage spaces. One of the bedrooms benefits from a large walk in wardrobe, whilst another has a fitted sink unit and a third has a corner handbasin. All in all flexible space to accommodate most family requirements.
Grounds
The grounds associated with this home are absolutely stunning with a sweeping drive running down to the house. Upon entering the grounds there is a large level lawn with a Summerhouse tucked away in one corner, a great spot for family games and any camp overs! Edging this is a 100 year old stone wall forming part of the walled garden, a large enclosed south facing area with carefully manicured lawns and feature planting including 4 original pear trees. The walled garden is believed in the past to have been the working kitchen garden for Windridge, next door. Superb elevated views over the private woodland can be enjoyed from this vantage point, once into the woods there are several formal pathways, on different levels, to explore and enjoy. The final area of garden is that directly behind the house, again mainly laid to lawn, south facing and enjoying elevated views over woodland. This area has the additional benefit of a paved Yorkstone terrace adjacent to the house for entertaining.
To the front of the house are two courtyard style terraces, one perfect for catching the morning sun the other for those enjoying the accommodation within the garage complex.
Garage complex
Following the drive down from the entrance five-bar gate through the grounds towards the main house, you first approach the garage complex. This was converted six years ago and provides superb additional accommodation. There are two single garage bays with up and over doors. Behind both is an entrance hall with stairs to the first floor featuring a vaulted ceiling and glass and oak balustrade.
On the ground floor is an open plan lounge/kitchen with patio doors out onto a courtyard terrace.
To the first floor is a double bedroom, contemporary wet room and a large loft storage room over the garage with double doors opening onto and protected by, a Juliette balcony with winch point above, ideal for bringing heavy goods into the building at the first-floor level This is additional family accommodation and cannot be sub-let.
Location
A truly special position is enjoyed by Windridge Cottage, towards the end of a quiet private road made up of substantial detached homes within prestigious plots.
Nestled in an elevated position between Headley Down and Arford villages. Headley Down provides acres of National Trust land at Ludshott Common plus a fuel station and convenience store within walking distance. Headley village centre provides a small range of shops and facilities including the Church, a doctors surgery with retail chemist, a newsagent, hairdresser and small Delicatessen plus two village pubs, The Holly Bush and The Crown (both within walking distance). High street shopping and main line stations can be found at Farnham and Haslemere, around 7 and 9 miles away. Access to the A3 is within 4 miles, offering motorway style connections to London, the South Coast. Heathrow and Gatwick Airports are approx. An hours drive away. In addition to Ludshott Common, the general area abounds in National Trust land - the Devil’s Punchbowl at Hindhead is approximately 4 miles away. Ideal for walking and riding, and there are a number of footpaths and connecting bridle ways close by.
