Stella Cottage is a delightful Grade II listed home with plenty of character, that dates back to around the late 17th or early 18th century. Its history is connected to the 18th century writer and politician Jonathan Swift, who named the house after his friend Esther Johnson, whom he nicknamed ‘Stella’.
The accommodation includes more than 3,000 sq. Ft of beautifully presented living and entertaining space. The main reception rooms at the front of the ground floor are the drawing room and the dining room. The dining room has a dual aspect, welcoming plenty of natural light, while the drawing room has a corner fireplace and double doors leading to the sunny garden room. Across the back of the house is the 30ft kitchen and breakfast room, with its airy dining area, French doors opening onto the garden and well-equipped kitchen. There is plenty of storage, a butcher’s block island, integrated appliances and an aga.
The extended family room is located in a converted outbuilding connected to the house. It has a fine vaulted ceiling and wooden flooring, and is a peaceful, private space in which to relax.
On the first floor, the principal bedroom has extensive built-in storage, an en suite bathroom
and access to the large dressing room. There are
a further two double bedrooms on the first floor, and a family bathroom. On the second floor, there is an additional double bedroom and a large, luxury bathroom.<br /><br />The property is set in an idyllic position alongside Waverley Abbey ruins, and overlooking River Wey. The grounds total approximately eight acres and include extensive river frontage with fishing rights, as well as water meadows and wooded areas which are a haven for wildlife. At the entrance, the wooden gates open onto a driveway with parking for several vehicles and access to the detached
double garage. Further outbuildings include a large workshop, several stores, a greenhouse and a summerhouse. The garden features paved pathways and terracing, rolling lawns, well-stocked
bed with various shrubs and perennials, and a mixture of mature trees and wellmaintained hedgerows. About 8 acres in total.<br /><br />Stella Cottage is situated between the villages of Elstead, Tilford and The Sands, and within easy reach of Farnham. The house enjoys easy access to surrounding woodland, farmland, Crooksbury and Puttenham Commons and Cut Mill Pond, which provide miles of sandy countryside for walking, running and cycling.
The nearby Georgian town of Farnham has a good range of shops, supermarkets and recreational facilities. There is an excellent choice of state, private and boarding schools in the Farnham, Guildford and surrounding areas including Puttenham Infant School, Waverley Abbey, Aldro, Barfield, Charterhouse, rgs and Guildford High School.
