Description
Set in a truly delightful semi-rural position, with a glorious outlook over fields and a lake to the front, 1 Postford Mill Cottages is a fine attached character home, with generously proportioned accommodation arranged over two floors. On the ground floor, the drawing room looks out over the mature gardens and fields beyond and has an attractive open fire, whilst the dining room, situated to the rear of the house, has double doors out on to a small rear terrace which overlooks a pretty stream which runs behind the property. The kitchen has recently been re-fitted to a high standard. Upstairs, there are three good double bedrooms, one of which has an en suite shower room, and a large family bathroom. The gardens are a particular feature of the property, wrapping around two sides of the house and with a lovely open outlook over the fields and lake to the front, yet with clever use of low fencing, still offering privacy on the patio terrace. A double garage completes the lot. The rural setting of Postford Mill Cottages, yet with neighbours close at hand, makes this an ideal "lock-up-and-leave property, or would suit those downsizing from a larger home who want well proportioned rooms and attractive gardens, but less of them.

Situation
Chilworth is a charming village set in a sought after Green Belt location within an Area of Great Landscape Value. The surrounding countryside, including The Chantries, St Martha's Hill and Newlands Corner is some of the prettiest in Surrey. For daily needs, Chilworth and the neighbouring villages of Blackheath, Albury, Shere and Abinger provide a selection of shops, churches, pubs and restaurants. A short distance away, the university town of Guildford provides an extensive range of shopping and leisure amenities, together with a frequent train service into London/Waterloo (from 35 minutes). Chilworth station is within walking distance and also connects with fast London trains at Guildford mainline station (from 8 minutes) and Gatwick airport (from 55 minutes). Road connections are also excellent with the A3 at Ripley (avoiding Guildford town centre) providing access to London, the M25 (J10) and the airports. There is a good selection of schools within easy reach, including The Royal Grammar School, Tormead, Lanesborough and George Abbot in Guildford, St Catherine's at Bramley, Prior's Field and Charterhouse at Godalming, and Cranleigh. Recreational amenities include the Spectrum Leisure Centre at Guildford, and golf at several courses nearby, including Bramley and Clandon.

Directions
From Guildford, take the A281 south towards Horsham. At the mini-roundabout at Shalford, turn left signposted to Dorking (A248). After approximately 1 mile, turn left onto the A248, New Road, signposted to Chilworth and Albury, continue into the village of Chilworth, over the railway line, and proceed for just over a mile before turning left into Mill Lane. Take the left hand fork on to the gravelled track, passing the single house in the left hand side and Postford Mill Cottages will be seen in front of you, with Number 1 being the nearest.

Guildford town centre and mainline station 3.2 miles (5.1 km)
A3 Ripley 9.8 miles (15.7 km)
