Full Details for 4 Bedroom Detached for sale in Virginia Water, GU25 :
Glenwood Cottage offers one of those almost unique opportunities to purchase a property on a large plot of land where one can refurbish/reconfigure or extend/redevelop (subject to planning approval) at less than £1.5M.
Built in the late Victoria era as a coach house to the main house, this characterful property requires substantial improvement. We believe it has never previously sought planning permission or been extended and presents a wonderful opportunity of a ‘blank canvas’ to those with the vision of bringing this house into the 21st century, without paying in excess of £2M one would normally expect to pay for a family house on such a large plot of land.
It is set in a semi-rural location with views over Crown land to both the front and rear, with the most wonderful secluded gardens to the rear which are laid out in 3 sections; the more formal lawned area of garden with various shrubs and trees, a lightly wooded area with stunning blankets of Bluebells in the Spring and an organic orchard and fruit cage to the rear which comprises apples, pears, quince, medlars, greengages, goosberries, raspberries, redcurrants, loganberries, cherries, rhubarb and walnuts. There are even a couple of beehives producing ‘Glenwood Honey’!
Glenwood Cottage is situated in the highly desirable village of Virginia Water - home to the world renowned Wentworth Estate which was developed in the 1920’s with its mix of mainly large family homes and mansions intertwined with its now 3 superb golf courses, including the famous West Course. Virginia Water Lake and Windsor Great Park are all easily accessible and the main-line train station is about 1.25miles (with a short-cut to reduce this). Virginia Water has become one of the most sought after locations in the country and is synonymous with luxury housing. Although in close proximity to the capital, it still retains a more rural feel with many surrounding parks and open spaces. It also benefits from excellent transport links to London and the south east with easy access to the M25, M4 and M3. London Heathrow Airport (15 mins) and London Gatwick (35mins) are also within easy reach.
Schools around the area include Eton College, Bishopsgate School, Papplewick, St Georges, St James & Hampton Boys and the two International Schools Tasis and the American Community School as well as numerous other quality establishments. The area really is blessed with choice in this department.
The local area benefits from many international sporting venues including Guards Polo Club, Ascot Racecourse and the Wentworth Club which also has excellent Spa and tennis facilities, as well as the golf already mentioned.

The garden could be enjoyed by adults and children alike with endless opportunities for dens and tree-houses! EPC Rating F.
