Property Details
Built as part of the 'Woodham Hall' Estate in circa. 1930's this very attractive detached Tudor influenced 'Dutch Barn' style house occupies a magnificent plot of approx.0.253 acres and with the house situated to the left hand side of the plot and the garage to the right. There is a tremendous opportunity for substantial extension to the property (subject to the usual consents). With the demolition of the garage, there is a potential to create a substantial detached house by extending at two floor level to the right hand side and possibly deeper than the existing building as well. Plans for substantial extension to the property can be seen at the house and are currently being revised to meet the planners requirements. The gardens are truly spectacular with the house benefiting from an imposing shingle double width in-out driveway with landscaped feature to the centre, which creates excellent entry and parking facilities. There are two lockable gates either side of the property to the rear garden, which measures approx. 150ft., has a shaped crazy paved terrace as well as a decking patio with pergola for dining. There are also some exceptional shaped beds with specimen plants, shrubs and trees. The Riding is one of the most sought after private roads within the Woodham area and is situated within walking distance of Woking town centre and station (about 20 mins walk) and within 2 miles of West Byfleet village centre and station (Waterloo from 28 mins West Byfleet - Woking from 26 mins). If extension is not required, this delightful property does represent an excellent home with potential, as a three bedroom, two reception room detached house in beautiful grounds.
