A DISTINGUISHED FLINT-FACED PERIOD SEMI DETACHED COTTAGE IN AN EXCEPTIONAL POSITION ON RANMORE COMMON COMMANDING FAR-REACHING SOUTHERLY VIEWS ....
Occupying a prominent position atop Ranmore Common, 2 Lime Tree Cottages is a beautifully presented semi-detached character house of considerable charm, enjoying an enviable combination of privacy, mature grounds and some of the finest outlooks to be found in the area. The cottage reflects the distinctive flint-faced architecture for which Ranmore is renowned, a legacy of the Denbies Estate development under the Cubitt family. The property has been meticulously maintained and thoughtfully improved, creating a home that balances character with practical modern family living. An entrance hall with cloakroom leads through to the heart of the house, where the kitchen opens seamlessly to a magnificent family/dining room. Flooded with natural light through roof lanterns and double doors opening directly onto the terrace and gardens beyond, this impressive space provides an exceptional setting for both everyday living and entertaining. The sitting room is elegantly proportioned and centred around a log burner, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere, whilst a separate snug with wood-burning stove offers a further characterful reception room. A practical utility room adjoining the kitchen completes the ground floor accommodation. The first floor continues to impress, with the main bedroom enjoying spectacular southerly views, together with an en-suite shower room. Three further bedrooms are served by a family bathroom, providing flexible accommodation suited to both families and those seeking space for guests. Outside, the beautifully tended and established gardens have been carefully nurtured over many years. Mature planting and specimen trees create a wonderful sense of seclusion, a flexible studio which can be used for a number of uses - home office, hobby room, gym or storage, whilst a natural pond enhances the peaceful setting. Towards the far end of the garden, a seating area has been positioned to fully take in the remarkable panoramic views across the Surrey Hills landscape. A private, gated driveway provides parking along with a detached double garage.
