A Grade II listed four bedroom cottage full of character and original features.<br/><br/> <b>Description</b><br/><br/>Apple Tree Cottage is a charming home, rich with original features including beamed ceilings and exposed stonework. Set within level gardens that have been lovingly landscaped, the cottage occupies a prominent and peaceful position in the heart of the village.<br/><br/>Hidden from passing traffic, the property reveals itself as the entrance gates open to a plot approaching 0.4 acres. Mature, well stocked gardens wrap around three sides of the cottage, providing an attractive outlook from every room. The frontage includes block paved driveway parking, ample turning space, and an attached garage.<br/><br/>The entrance porch leads into two welcoming reception rooms. To the left lies a wonderful dual aspect sitting room with a door opening onto the gardens and a large central Inglenook fireplace housing a modern wood burning stove, complete with the charming detail of a former bread oven tucked into one corner. To the right is a spacious open plan dining and family room, also featuring a character fireplace. Discreetly positioned off this space are a cloakroom and stairs to the first floor.<br/><br/>A modern kitchen completes the ground floor accommodation, with doors opening to both the front driveway and the rear garden. It offers a range of solid oak fronted cabinetry, granite work surfaces, and integrated appliances including a double oven, induction hob, fridge freezer, and washing machine.<br/><br/>Upstairs, the first floor features the principal bedroom with en suite bathroom, built-in storage and views to both the front and rear garden. There are three further bedrooms, one with an en suite and two with built-in wardrobes, and a family bathroom. The first floor rooms enjoy part vaulted ceilings and exposed beams, enhancing the period charm throughout.<br/><br/>The gardens are undeniably one of the property’s standout features. Sweeping around the cottage, they provide a series of beautifully landscaped spaces with mature planting, generous lawns, and a secluded part walled patio. <br/><br/>Meandering pathways create picturesque viewpoints at every turn, including a wisteria clad arbour and a private outlook toward the village church. At the rear of the plot lies a formal vegetable garden complete with a greenhouse. Additionally, a charming garden room—designed in the style of a vaulted glasshouse—offers a delightful setting to enjoy the surroundings in all seasons.<br/><br/><b>Location</b><br/><br/>Headley benefits from an active and welcoming village scene. The Village Hall hosts a variety of clubs and activities including art classes, yoga, Pilates, a gardening club, a poetry group and the Headley Theatre Club, ensuring there is something for all interests and ages. <br/><br/>The village also benefits from The Holly Bush, a traditional pub serving food alongside the excellent Luff’s Farm Shop and Garden Centre. For those who enjoy sport and recreation, the village provides superb facilities including a cricket club, football club and bowls club, each offering the opportunity to get involved in local sporting life and meet fellow residents.<br/><br/>Headley is surrounded by glorious countryside, offering outstanding opportunities for walking, cycling and outdoor pursuits, with nearby beauty spots including Waggoner’s Wells, Ludshott Common, the Devil’s Punch Bowl, Hankley and Frensham Commons.<br/><br/>There is an excellent choice of schools in the area, including The Holme Primary School and Oakmoor Secondary School.
