Built to emulate the charm of the Tudor era with the feature herringbone brickwork and timbers of its double fronted facade, Cascades opens onto breathtakingly beautiful gardens that instantly capture and hold your imagination. The depth of colour and greenery that rises in front of you combines with the tranquil soundtrack of a waterfall to add an utterly idyllic backdrop to the house and an enviable quality of life to those who live there.

Set within the exclusivity of a prized Bargate Wood cul de sac, the wonderful easy flow of the interior layout unfolds over an impressive 2978 sq.ft across three storeys that include the convenience of integral double garaging. The soft neutral hues of a cohesive palette lend an elegantly understated feel of quiet luxury throughout while a substantial loft provides ample chance to extend this Godalming home further still (STNC).

Prompting an undeniable feeling of light and space, a central hallway on the ground floor hints at the fluidity of the accommodation, opening onto a wealth of options in which to work, dine, relax and entertain. Refined and restful, a spacious double aspect sitting room has the focal point of a tastefully chosen contemporary fireplace with the clean geometric lines of a stone surround. Filling your gaze with the gardens, wide sliding doors allow the large terracing to become an extension of the room, while inner double doors open into an adjoining formal dining room where the halcyon views continue.

Across the hallway a study is a haven when working from home and a considerable family room generates versatile space to spend time together or to create a TV/film/games room or ground floor guest bedroom.

Equally impressive in both its generous proportions and levels of presentation, a superbly appointed kitchen/breakfast room is fully fitted with Shaker cabinetry topped with granite. A first class array of integrated appliances includes eye-level tower ovens, a gas hob, fridge freezer and dishwasher, and with ample space for a large central table it's easy to see that impeccable room is a favored destination for lazy weekend brunches and catching up on the day's events over a glass of wine.

A matching utility room with handy direct access to the gardens keeps laundry hidden out of sight, and a ground floor cloakroom is ideal for guests.

Explore upstairs and you'll find a succession of five light filled bedrooms providing plenty of flexibility for a growing household. Creating its own wing of the first floor, an exemplary principal suite is a calm and restful sanctuary at the end of a busy day. A fitted dressing room adds to the notable amount of storage that wardrobes within the main bedroom supply, and a stunning en suite is simply luxurious with its freestanding contemporary bathtub, bidet and separate glass framed shower. Teenagers will love the second double bedroom with its fitted wardrobes and deluxe en suite shower room, while two additional double bedrooms and a generous single room share an excellent modern family bathroom.

Making life easy, on the lower ground floor there's direct access to the integral double garaging and a duo of useful large walk-in store rooms which could become additional study spaces or even a home cinema if desired.

An established lawn sweeps gently up to the house, while stone steps rise to the solid oak wood door of a discerning facade with herringbone brickwork, timber beams and leaded windows.
