Maplewood is an exceptional family home of enormous character which sits in a hugely convenient position mid way between the charming villages of Ripley and Clandon and just a short drive from the larger towns of Woking and Guildford. The house has been imaginatively and significantly extended in recent years with great thought and attention to detail and the result is a home that works incredibly well for a family as indeed it does for entertaining.
The centrepiece of the house is a stunning, oak framed and vaulted kitchen living space which perfectly connects with the terrace and garden and where light floods in through a beautifully framed wall of glass at one end. Laid out in three distinct areas this is very much the heart of the home with a fabulous hand built Thomas Ford kitchen that is fitted out with an array of units along with a granite topped, large central island. At the far end a sitting area looks out over the delightfully private, south west facing garden while to one side is a generous dining area which makes the most of the light and space.
On the other side of the house the formal sitting room has likewise been enlarged by way of a further oak framed space which again allows light to flood into a room that has a very calm and serene feel. Off the large reception hall, a further reception room offers great flexibility—ideal as a study, snug, or family/TV room, depending on your needs.
Situated on the first floor, the principal bedroom enjoys a bright dual-aspect outlook with picturesque views over the rear garden. This comfortable room is further enhanced by two sets of built-in wardrobes, providing ample storage, and has the privacy and convenience of its own en suite shower room. The three additional double bedrooms continue the theme space and elegance that characterises the entire property. Each room offers well-proportioned accommodation, with large windows that allow for an abundance of natural light. These bedrooms are well-served by the main family bathroom, which is stylishly presented and thoughtfully designed to cater to the needs of a modern household.

Maplewood is situated between Ripley and Clandon and just a short drive from Ripley village which has a collection of interesting shops, cafes and restaurants as well as one of the largest village greens in England, also home to Ripley Cricket Club.
A short drive in the other direction will take you into the beautiful County Town of Guildford with its historic cobbled High Street that is lined with period buildings and which at the far end looks out over the green hills that surround the town. By contrast Woking is a far more contemporary centre that has undergone something of a transformation recently and which has what is widely regarded as one of the best commuting stations that can be found in the South-East, with trains running into Waterloo in about 25 minutes. Both Woking and Guildford have excellent theatres and multiscreen cinemas while nearby there are various highly regarded golf clubs as well as health and fitness clubs. Also just a short drive through Clandon is the stunning scenery of Newlands Corner and on from here into the Surrey Hills - an area of outstanding natural beauty.
In Ripley there is access to the A3 which means a swift journey by car into London and also an easy route to the M25 for those times when you need Gatwick or Heathrow. There are excellent schools in and around the area along with wide open areas of countryside that make for excellent walking and cycling.
