Lower Highfield Farm is a beautiful Georgian farmhouse dating back to 1750, located in an area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. The Nature Reserves of Thursley Common and The Devil's Punchbowl are moments away providing a vast array of walking trails and bridleways. The charming community owned pub, the church, village hall and cricket pitch serve as the centre of village life.

As the house is not listed it has been sensitively extended over the years adapting it for modern living while retaining it's features and original charm. A wonderful example of this is the expansive, custom built kitchen breakfast room and orangery which provide an inside/outside feel and views of the terrace and gardens.

The house is built from a combination of mellow coloured stone and red brick with double glazed Georgian style farmhouse windows, an original inglenook fireplace and terracotta tiles or hardwood flooring in many of the rooms. Downstairs is the old cellar which has been opened up and turned into a wine cellar/games room and is now very much a part of the main living space.

Outside the Mediterranean style terrace complete with an outdoor kitchen leads to a studio room and provides the perfect spot for outdoor dining or lounging in the sun. To the front of the property and surrounded by hedges is a newly re surfaced, well maintained tennis court.

Our clients have recently filled in an outdated swimming pool and researched building a new modern pool which could easily be placed on the top lawn.

Adjacent to the main house is the fabulous barn and adjoining garaging, stables, gym and workshop, plus there is a separate granary building. These provide numerous opportunities for development or simply to continue using as is with the barn being a spectacular party space.

The property benefits from over 12 acres of land which for many years have been farmed locally and mainly used for grazing sheep and cattle. In previous years the present owners have kept horses on the front field which would also be the perfect spot for a ménage should it be required.

The property provides easy access to local schools such as Bedales, Cranleigh, Charterhouse, Churchers college, RGS, Guildford High School, and prep schools St Edmunds, Aldro, Highfield, Amesbury and the highly regarded Bohunt School in the state sector. Fast train services to London from Haslemere, Farncombe or Guildford (35 mins to Waterloo).
