The Gables is an exceptional family home that sits in a stunning setting at the far end of a long driveway which lends a huge degree of privacy. Tucked away in a very attractive position on the fringes of Hook Heath, which is one of the most sought after locations in Woking, the house has almost the perfect balance between tranquility and convenience as it is within walking distance of Woking town centre and station.
On the ground floor the majority of the rooms lead from an unusually large and welcoming reception hall which at once sets the tone of the feeling of light and space that defines the house as a whole.
To one side, the sitting room is a wonderfully bright, double-aspect space with charming views of both the front and rear gardens. It also features double doors that open onto the rear sun terrace. From here, another set of double doors leads into the dining room, which also enjoys a delightful outlook over the rear garden. These two rooms can be seamlessly opened up, making them ideal for entertaining.
The kitchen, also overlooking the rear garden, is equipped with a range of units and appliances, all topped with elegant granite work surfaces. It offers ample space for a large family dining table. A side door leads directly to the garden, while double doors open into the spacious family room at the front of the house. The office, accessible from both the reception hall and the family room, is equally bright and provides an ideal setting for working from home.
On the first floor the bedrooms are equally comfortable and maintain the same pleasing feeling of space. The main bedroom faces the front and has a bank of fitted wardrobes at one end while on the other side is a very well fitted out en suite shower room. Bedrooms two, three and four are also doubles and again have built in wardrobes while the fifth bedroom has another delightful view over the rear garden.

Hook Heath is one of Woking's premier settings, sitting on the Guildford side of the town and within easy reach of the town centre. A short stroll from the house is Hook Heath Tennis and Croquet Club and Woking Golf Club while in the wider area there are a number of other very highly regarded golf clubs. A few minutes drive away, Woking town centre has been the subject of huge investment recently resulting in a busy and contemporary town that has an interesting collection of bars, cafes and restaurants. The town also has a wide variety of shops, particularly in the Peacocks centre which is also home to the New Victoria Theatre and a multi screen cinema. A short drive in the other direction will take you into the beautiful county town of Guildford with its historic cobbled high street lined with period buildings that house an eclectic and interesting array of shops and restaurants. There are numerous schooling options in the immediate area and for those looking for a fast commute into Waterloo, Woking's mainline station is regarded as one of the best that can be found in the south east and is within easy reach. In the surrounding area there are miles of open countryside which make for excellent walking and cycling, some of which can be reached on foot from the house. This is almost the perfect location from which to take advantage of both the town and the countryside.
