Tucked away at the end of a private driveway and surrounded by open fields and mature woodland, The Coppers is a truly enchanting Grade II listed Arts & Crafts cottage dating back to circa 1900 and inspired by the renowned local architect Sir Edward Lutyens. This wonderfully characterful home blends historic charm with generous, versatile accommodation and enjoys a tranquil and private setting.
The cottage immediately impresses with its beautifully preserved period features, starting in a central entrance hall which leads to a W/C and all key rooms. The dining room, currently set up as an office, sits at the front of the property and offers excellent space for a dining table and chairs. The sitting room offers an inviting and atmospheric space centred around an attractive, open fireplace and enjoys rich tones from the original tiled flooring. Timber detailing is complemented by a stunning run of Arts & Crafts leaded windows that frame leafy views and fill the room with gentle natural light. This warm and relaxing space is perfect for reading, hosting guests or cosy evenings by the fire. The kitchen/breakfast room sits adjacent and captures the essence of cottage living, fitted with bespoke solid oak cabinetry, timber worktops, a traditional butler sink and a classic electric AGA. Leaded windows overlook the garden beyond, creating a delightful backdrop while cooking or gathering around the preparation area. The room has a wonderfully rustic feel, with character fixtures and a layout ideal for everyday family life. One of the home's most striking features is the impressive formal dining/living room, showcasing a dramatic vaulted ceiling, extensive exposed timber beams and a mezzanine level above. This exceptional space is brimming with charm and offers superb flexibility-whether used for family dining, entertaining, a creative workspace or a second cosy sitting area. With its own bathroom and bedroom on the first floor, this space could make an ideal self-contained annexe. Upstairs, the cottage provides three well-proportioned bedrooms, all enjoying far-reaching views across fields and woodland as well as original wooden flooring. Bedroom three also features a set of stairs up to a second-floor loft room, which the current owners use as an additional storage space and teenage lounge area. A family bathroom completes the first floor, fitted with a bath, sink and W/C.
Outside
The gardens surrounding the cottage are mature, beautifully planted and wonderfully private-an idyllic extension of the home. With open fields and woodlands beyond, the setting provides a true sense of escape. The current owners currently rent an area of woodland at the rear of the property for £80 per annum. A rare opportunity to purchase a captivating period home of genuine character, enjoying outstanding seclusion in one of Surrey's most admired rural locations.
