Set in 33 acres of stunning historic woodland just a mile from the centre of Cranleigh, the second phase of homes at Swallowhurst, a flagship development built by Linden Homes in partnership with Wates Developments, features a collection of four, five and six-bedroom executive houses, which reflect the Arts and Crafts style so prominent in this popular area of Surrey.
The new show home is fully dressed and available to move into now, making it the perfect choice for those entertaining guests this summer.
Fran Kavanagh, sales representative for Linden Homes, comments: “With the first phase now sold, the sense of community at Swallowhurst is really flourishing and the new residents feel genuinely welcomed, especially by the local businesses, who provide a welcome hamper when they move in.
The beautiful new showhome gives people another reason to head down to the site and see what it would be like to live in this tranquil, countryside setting. “
Upon entering the new show home – a stunning five-bedroom detached house called The Loxwood - there is an immediate sense of grandeur thanks to the stunning imperial oak staircase, which takes centre stage in the hallway and is complemented by partially glazed double oak doors leading to the downstairs reception rooms.
A spacious cloakroom and storage cupboard in the hallway provide practical solutions when hosting guests, while a cleverly concealed dining area, with room for a large table and easy access to the kitchen, occupy the usually redundant hall space behind the stairs. This inventive use of space provides the perfect place to entertain guests in what could otherwise be an idle part of a home.
To the right, a sumptuous formal drawing room provides the ideal place for guests to retire after dinner or for adults to spend time away from the hustle and bustle of the main family area. Further extended outside via French doors leading onto the generous garden, both the dining and drawing rooms are fit for purpose year round.
To the other side of the hallway and at the heart of the home is the open plan kitchen and family area, which provides ample space for relaxing and dining as a family. Tucked away off the kitchen is a large utility room, which provides access to the convenient double garage.
On the second floor, a galleried landing leads to the all five bedrooms including the main bedroom – which looks out over the manicured rear garden and benefits from a spacious dressing room and en suite bathroom.
A second large bedroom with dressing room and en suite shower room overlooks the front of the property. The three remaining double bedrooms share use of the large family bath and shower room and also have plenty of storage space with two built in double wardrobes in each room.
Outside, the immaculate garden provides ample space, which has been thoughtfully designed to remain easy to maintain.
Fran Kavanagh adds: “I think it has become a common misconception that newly built homes offer small gardens but this isn’t the case at Swallowhurst. Each home has a generous, beautifully landscaped garden – with patio areas for entertaining guests and a lush lawn for children to play.”
For a limited time only, a further ‘pop up’ show home will also be available to view at Swallowhurst. Furnished in key rooms, The Alford, a six-bedroom family home, will help demonstrate to potential purchasers the individuality of the homes available at Swallowhurst and how they can be furnished and styled to suit a variety of lifestyles.
Prices at the second phase of Swallowhurst start from £1,275,000 for a four-bedroom home, The Loxwood show home is priced at £1,575,000 and The Alford is priced at £1,850,000.
