Set within just under an acre of enchanting, mature grounds, Arbon Cottage is a Grade II listed residence with seventeenth-century roots, occupying land that once belonged to the historic Manor of Chertsey. Local tradition suggests the property was, at one time, the home of Sir Christopher Wren — a connection long associated with the cottage and embraced by previous owners, though, as with many homes of this age, one passed down by reputation rather than by formal record. What is beyond question is the original oak-lined stair turret at the heart of the house, understood to be the earliest of its kind recognised in Surrey. <br/> <br/>From the moment of arrival, the home's inherent charm is undeniable. A welcoming entrance hall reveals a wealth of original features, setting the tone for the accommodation beyond. The principal reception room spans almost the full depth of the house, centred around a striking fireplace and bathed in natural light, with doors opening gracefully onto the gardens. A beautifully proportioned dining room enjoys tranquil views across the lawns and flows effortlessly into a characterful country kitchen, complete with a traditional Rayburn and an inviting informal dining and family area. Upstairs, the principal bedroom is wonderfully spacious, enjoying far-reaching views over the grounds, accompanied by further charming bedrooms and well-appointed bath and shower rooms.
