Surrey

An exceptional opportunity to acquire a substantial and characterful portion of a Grade II listed 17th-century residence, set within the picturesque and highly desirable village of Wanborough. Steeped in history, this distinguished property offers a wealth of original period features, including exposed oak beams, an impressive inglenook fireplace, and beautifully preserved stained glass windows.

Accessed via a charming private entrance, the property reveals a series of intimate, well-proportioned spaces that reflect its historical provenance, complemented by a generous and enchanting garden. The grounds are notable for their mature planting and include a rare and historically significant feature - an original air raid shelter.

The property enjoys a tranquil rural setting whilst benefitting from excellent connectivity. Wanborough train station provides convenient access to London and surrounding areas, and the vibrant town centre of Guildford is within easy reach.

legally bound to complete the transaction as per the special conditions in the legal pack. Your card will be automatically
debited for the bidder security amount of £6,000 and we’ll require the remaining balance for a 10% non-refundable
deposit. We will contact you after the auction has finished to make these arrangements.

Pre-auction offers

These must be made in writing and will only be considered if the Legal Pack has been inspected and proof of funding has
been supplied to the auctioneers. Pre-auction offers are only considered on an auction basis in accordance with the “Terms
& Conditions - Unconditional Auction”.

Mortgage finance

We advise all bidders who require a mortgage to confirm with their Financial Advisor as to whether or not the lot you are interested in would be suitable security to borrow finance against, prior to bidding. If you need to arrange a mortgage it is important that you obtain an offer from your lender before the day of the auction. Most building societies and banks will instruct a surveyor to prepare a valuation report before making a mortgage offer.
