Hockering Road, Woking, Surrey GU22

Description

Within Woking’s sought-after Hockering Estate, Newstead is a substantial five-bedroom house with more than 4,700 sq ft of accommodation, generous living spaces and a large private garden. Recently renovated throughout, the house has bright, understated interiors finished with herringbone timber floors, pale joinery and a soft neutral palette.

A broad reception hall introduces the house, with a sweeping staircase rising through its centre. The ground floor is arranged particularly well for family life, with a series of interconnected rooms opening directly onto the garden.

At its heart is the kitchen and breakfast room, where fitted cabinetry surrounds a large central island with bar seating, integrated appliances and wine storage. The adjoining family room extends to more than 27 ft, while the sunroom has windows on three sides and French doors leading outside. Together, the rooms form a generous everyday living space with abundant natural light and views across the garden.

A separate reception room measures over 26 ft in length and opens onto the patio terrace. An office provides a quiet place to work, while a pantry, utility room and guest cloakroom complete the ground floor. The double garage can be accessed directly from the house.

On the first floor, the principal bedroom has a dressing room and ensuite bathroom with twin basins, a freestanding bath and separate shower. Four further bedrooms are also found on this level, one with a walk-in wardrobe and ensuite shower room, alongside a family bathroom. Built-in storage has been incorporated throughout.

The second floor contains two additional rooms beneath the eaves, offering flexible space for guest accommodation, a playroom or a further reception room. A bathroom on this level adds to the versatility.

Outside, a gravelled driveway provides ample off-street parking. The large rear garden is predominantly laid to lawn and bordered by mature trees and established planting. A broad paved terrace runs along the back of the house, providing plenty of room for outdoor dining.

The Hockering Estate was established in around 1910 by developer Walter George Tarrant and comprises just 95 houses along four privately owned roads. Its leafy surroundings offer a sense of privacy while remaining close to central Woking. Shops, restaurants, theatres and cinemas are all within easy reach, while Woking station is within walking distance and provides fast services to London Waterloo.
