Property Description

The Old Forge is a wonderful, five bedroom period family house of immense charm and character with substantial auxillary accommodation, in the rural hamlet of Isington. The main house retains a number of period features including exposed beams and open fireplaces, creating a warm and comfortable house with a flexible layout. The extended, open-plan kitchen/dining room with Aga is the real hub of the property and enjoys fabulous
views across the gardens and adjoining field toward open farmland.
Adjacent to the main house is a detached, self contained one/two bedroom converted Barn. The Annexe provides particularly spacious and
versatile accommodation with many charming
features including vaulted ceilings and original
beams. This would be an ideal space for extended family, visitors or for use as guest accommodation.

The Old Forge is positioned in the hamlet of Isington, less than 1.5 miles from Bentley, and 1.4 miles from Bentley station, with regular trains to London Waterloo. Nearby Mill Farm has an Organic Farm Shop. Bentley is a popular village to the west of Farnham with a church, public house, primary school, nursery, shop and recreation ground with playground and cricket pitch. Isington is surrounded by glorious open countryside with walking, riding and fishing at Alice Holt Forest and Frensham Little Pond, plus sailing at the Great Pond. The nearby Georgian town of Farnham has a good range of hight street and independent shops, supermarkets and recreational facilities. There is an excellent choice of state and private schools in Farnham, Guildford and the surrounding areas including Bentley Primary School, Edgeborough,
Frensham Heights, Lord Wandsworth College and Charterhouse. Communications are first class with the A31/A3 and A331/M3 providing links to London and the south coast. Gatwick, Heathrow and Southampton airports are all accessible in under an hour.

The Old Forge is centrally positioned between The Annexe and the thatched Long Barn, within an attractive brick paved courtyard-like setting. The formal front garden flower beds are framed by minature box-hedging and are well-stocked with a variety of Herbs and Lavender, providing colour and interest throughout the year. The rear gardens are mostly laid to lawn, creating a park-like setting with countryside views. The Old Forge's land also includes half of the adjacent field, creating a stunning rural backdrop. The unconverted Long Barn is currently used as a garage/workshop with storage and offers potential to convert into a games room, studio or additional living accommodation, subject to the appropriate planning permissions.
