3 bed detached house for sale

Common Close, Horsell, Woking GU21

Tucked away within a peaceful tree lined cul-de-sac and enjoying an exceptionally appealing position directly adjoining Horsell Common, this attractive bay-fronted detached home offers a rare opportunity to create a wonderful family residence in one of the area’s most desirable settings. The property is now in need of modernisation, but its existing footprint, generous garden and enviable outlook provide an excellent foundation for those looking to put their own stamp on a home, with significant scope to enlarge further, subject to the necessary planning permissions and consents. Offered for sale with no onward chain, it is an exciting proposition for buyers seeking a property with genuine long-term potential.

The extended ground floor provides a comfortable and versatile arrangement, centred around a spacious living room with direct access onto the rear garden, creating an easy connection between the house and its exceptional outdoor surroundings. A separate dining room provides a dedicated space for family meals and entertaining, while the kitchen offers scope for reconfiguration and improvement to suit contemporary tastes. A downstairs cloakroom adds further practicality, with the accommodation upstairs providing three bedrooms and the potential to create a particularly impressive family home through future refurbishment and enlargement.

Outside, the rear garden is a real highlight, being both generous in size and directly backed by Horsell Common. This creates an enviable sense of space and privacy, while offering immediate access to the open surroundings for walking, running and enjoying the outdoors. To the front, a driveway provides useful off-street parking and leads to the garage. With its tranquil setting, direct Common frontage and excellent potential to transform and extend, this is a property that offers far more than meets the eye and represents an increasingly rare opportunity to secure a detached home in such a special location.
