Pyrford Heath, Woking GU22

Set back beautifully within its plot on one of Pyrford village’s most peaceful and leafy private roads, The Holt has a charming approach and a welcoming exterior presence, framed by mature trees and rose-filled borders. There’s a sense of arrival here - calm, established, quietly grand. Built by the renowned Tarrant family - celebrated for their generous proportions, graceful flow, and architectural individuality - The Holt is a home of exquisite design and exceptional distinction.

A charming, covered veranda frames the front entrance, offering a sheltered welcome and a touch of architectural elegance. Step inside and you’re greeted by a welcoming reception hall that feels like a room in its own right - with its own fireplace and sense of grandeur. It’s a home that invites you to linger, with each space offering its own distinct charm. The kitchen enjoys views across the generous, leafy front garden - a peaceful outlook to start the day, with a walk-in pantry for hidden storage, a stable door leading to a utility room and cloakroom, and easy access to the garden beyond.

There are three beautifully versatile reception rooms on the ground floor - each full of character. The living room is wonderfully spacious, with a central fireplace and French doors opening onto the garden. The formal dining room, with its high ceilings, fireplace, and a timeless elegance, is perfect for evening gatherings. A further adaptable reception room with a wood-burning stove and full-width glass doors to the rear garden invites endless uses- cosy winter retreat, creative studio, or garden-facing sanctuary framed by the vibrant blooms of rhododendrons. Adjacent is a useful study, which cleverly connects through to a utility kitchen, garage access, and a nearby cloakroom - offering flexible space and the potential for a guest suite or annexe.

At the centre of The Holt, the sweeping galleried staircase rises beneath an elegant picture window that draws your eye to the garden as you ascend to the bright landing on the first floor, where four generous double bedrooms await.

The principal suite is a true retreat - dual aspect, bathed in natural light, with French doors opening onto a private balcony large enough for a table and chairs - morning coffee or a glass of wine at sunset. It’s complete with a tranquil en-suite bathroom and extensive fitted storage - a theme that runs throughout this home. Another bedroom features an en-suite shower room, while a third includes a charming sink unit and fitted storage. A fourth bedroom, peaceful and bright, includes a convenient sink facility - ideal for guests. A separate family bathroom with walk-in shower accommodates the remaining rooms with ease.

The top floor reveals even more: Three further double bedrooms are gently nestled beneath the sloping ceilings, each with its own personality and all enjoying elevated views across the treetops. One is currently set as a home office, with bespoke fitted cabinetry - ideal for quiet work-from-home days. A particularly spacious attic room on this floor offers superb flexibility - perfect for storage, a hobbies space, or as a dedicated workshop.

Outside, the garden is enchanting. A pergola, heavy with lilac wisteria in spring, provides the perfect spot to sit and listen to birdsong. Mature planting gives colour and privacy all year round, and a large ornamental pond adds a sense of calm and natural beauty with a cascading water feature. There are multiple sunny seating areas, along with a charming summerhouse for quieter moments or creative inspiration. A greenhouse stands ready for pleasurable gardening throughout the seasons, while acers and a rock garden bursting with delicate alpine pink geraniums lead the eye to a delightful bug hotel - a haven for nature and pollinators alike.

To the front, the beautifully kept frontage sets the scene, with a pretty garden that softens the approach and brings a sense of openness rarely found so close to the village. The driveway provides ample parking and leads to a spacious garage - offering both convenience and a seamless connection to the home.

This remarkable home tells a story and is a rare jewel in the heart of the village: Full of character, with the unmistakable individuality of a classic Tarrant design. There’s room here to gently enhance and bring your own sense of style - adding to a home already rich in charm. Blissfully tucked away in Pyrford Heath, The Holt offers a rare serenity that’s increasingly hard to find.
