Description2 Utworth Manor Cottages is a pretty, half tile hung character cottage built in the 1880's and enjoys a wonderfully tranquil, semi-rural position on the outskirts of Cranleigh village with beautiful views across neighbouring farmland. The property has undergone an extensive programme of refurbishment by the current owner including new windows, a new roof and a new central heating system. Utworth Manor Cottages lends itself perfectly to either family life or a second home in the countryside.
The dual aspect sitting room has been fitted with bespoke shelving and cabinetry, a log burning stove and benefits from views over the gardens. A brace and latch door leads into a small rear lobby and study area. The dining room has an original open fireplace, a hardwood floor and access outside. The modern kitchen is well appointed with built-in appliances and an adjoining utility room.
To the first floor, accommodation is well planned with four bedrooms and a stylish family bathroom. The two main bedrooms house pretty cast iron fireplaces, with all bedrooms enjoying views and fitted with built in wardrobes.
Outside the garden wraps around three sides of the house with seating areas for entertaining in the summer months. The garden has a number of fruit trees and well stocked borders. To the rear there is a driveway for three cars.
2 Utworth Manor Cottages has a superb party barn, which has been created by the current owners. This space is wonderfully versatile and is ideal for entertaining all year round. The barn is timber and glass framed with a large open plan reception room with kitchenette, shower room and a spectacular mezzanine level currently presented as additional accommodation but could also be used as a further home office.
