Property description

A uniquely positioned and beautifully presented grade II listed five to six bedroom country residence

This handsome and beautifully presented Grade II listed country residence has been skilfully upgraded and improved over the years with an evident respect for the property’s stunning period character and a charming attention to detail. The oldest parts of the property date back to the 16th Century with later additions created in the 1920s, designed by the renowned local architect, Blunden Shadbolt, and in the 1970s. The property sits on a delightful plot extending to some 0.6 acres and enjoys far-reaching countryside views. Contemporary high specification finishes blend perfectly with stunning period details in the highly decorative fireplace surrounds, exposed beams and traditional style windows. A muted and elegant colour palette compliments the natural stone flooring which can be found throughout much of the ground floor with thoughtfully placed seating areas both internally and externally ensuring the views are maximised. Great Lake Farm is ideally situated for the amenities and train connections at Horley whilst offering access to miles of open countryside, perfect for walkers, cyclists and horseriders alike.

Great Lake Farm boasts some 4,558 sq ft of versatile and well-proportioned accommodation arranged over two floors plus loft room and accessed via two staircases, offering an ideal balance of formal and informal spaces and a sociable layout suited to modern family lifestyles. The tone is set on entering the generously proportioned hallway with its exposed beams, striking art nouveau fireplace surround and sweeping staircase. The sitting room offers an inviting space with Inglenook fireplace and logburner, exposed beams and a charming window seat. Equally inviting is the snug with leaded light windows framing views over fields. At the heart of this family residence is a well-appointed kitchen/ diner, benefiting from granite work surfaces, a curved island and even the original servants’ bells. Essential for county living is the good size boot room with plentiful storage. In addition, there is a dining room, shower room, utility room and study on this floor.

The first floor accommodation comprises a fabulous main suite with large bedroom, luxurious dual aspect bathroom with slipper bath and good size dressing room. Four further bedrooms and a dressing room are served by two shower rooms. A step ladder provides access to a loft room.

The property is approached via a gated entrance giving way to an oak framed three car garage and gravel area providing parking for several vehicles. The grounds extend to some 0.6 acres comprising lawned areas, established beds, a fish pond and well placed seating areas.
