For Sale14 Bedroom Detached House in Thursley, Godalming, Surrey, GU8£8,950,000

A magnificent property beautifully refurbished with incredible entertainment rooms, indoor swimming pool, equestrian facilities and a Grade II listed Mill House. Milhanger Constructed in 1907, Milhanger was designed by Harold Falkner, a renowned architect from Farnham known for rebuilding much of that charming town. Roger Taylor, the drummer of the rock band Queen, extended the property during his tenure from 1979 to 2003. Recently the property has been sympathetically upgraded, preserving many of the original features, such as the attractive fireplaces and superb oak staircase, whilst all windows have been replaced with matching double glazing. The layout has been re-designed to give more light and better flow throughout the house. The standout addition is the re-building of the orangery off the kitchen with bi-fold doors, giving expansive living space both inside and out. Milhanger is perfect for grand-scale entertaining as well as relaxed family living and offers an array of comfortable sitting rooms, study, cinema and bar. The bedroom accommodations are equally impressive, especially the expansive principal suite on the second floor. A discreet staircase leads from the first floor to a vaulted room that includes an elegant bedroom with a fireplace, a generous sitting area, a semi-open-plan dressing room, an en suite bathroom, and a study. Dormer windows throughout the valley side of Milhanger offer dramatic views. Cosford Mill Within the estate and with its own access drive, there is a Grade II listed former water mill that has been restored and converted to provide characterful accommodation comprising four bedrooms, two bathrooms (one en suite), sitting room, dining room, kitchen, breakfast room and first floor sitting area. Gardens and Grounds The property is approached through an electric operated gate set on brick piers, via a long, private gravelled drive leading to a forecourt and parking area in front of the house. There is a six car open bay garage. The drive and forecourt are flanked by lawn, evergreen hedges, shrubs and many mature rhododendrons and trees. While open and spacious, there is a very pleasant, private feel. The main grounds lie mainly to the south and east of the property, including formal landscaped gardens close to the house, with terraces on different levels accessed through doors from the principal rooms. Paths lead down from the gardens into the valley, meandering through areas of woodland past the stream and lakes. A spur off the drive leads to a stable yard with ten loose boxes, store rooms and an all-weather manège. Beyond the formal gardens, the remaining grounds comprise 28 acres of fenced paddocks and a variety of mixed woodland.
