4 Bedroom House for rent in Haslemere

3 4 2

Brookbank is a charming and historic home with deep literary and architectural significance. Originally built in 1730 as a simple farm cottage, the front of the house features traditional ironstone walls, once believed to ward off evil spirits. The property was later upgraded for middle-class residence following the arrival of the railways in the 1860s.



Brookbank is best known for its association with renowned novelist George Eliot. During the summer of 1871, Eliot and her partner G.H. Lewes rented the property while their London home was being renovated. It was here that she wrote much of Middlemarch, one of the greatest novels in English literature. In recognition of its historical importance, the house was awarded a Haslemere Society Blue Plaque in September 2008.



The accommodation is spacious and well-appointed, blending period charm with modern convenience. The ground floor boasts a welcoming living room, a generous dining room, a well-equipped kitchen, and a delightful conservatory overlooking the garden. The first floor features three well-proportioned bedrooms, including a principal bedroom with an en-suite shower room, as well as a separate family bathroom. A loft room on the second floor offers additional versatile space, ideal as a home office, guest room, or studio. A separate annexe studio provides further flexibility for work or leisure. A cellar on the lower ground floor completes the layout.



Externally, Brookbank benefits from a mature enclosed garden that wraps around the house, offering privacy and a peaceful retreat. The property also features driveway parking for multiple cars.



Situated in a desirable location, Brookbank is approximately a 15-20 minute walk from Haslemere Mainline Station, providing convenient rail links to London and beyond.



Available furnished or unfurnished to suit tenants' requirements, Brookbank offers a rare opportunity to reside in a home of literary heritage and timeless appeal.
