Property description
68 years ago the current owners decided to get married and leave behind the hustle and bustle of London to start a family in a more rural setting.
Here, they could walk for miles through gorgeous green belt countryside and the nearby Banstead Woods.
It was the cottage style look and the tree-lined road that first caught their eye plus the outstanding views from both front and back of the house.
They could also see the potential to extend in the future and liked the fact there was a private driveway.
As keen gardeners this property has a great garden that they took advantage of.
Although the property is in need of some modernisation, they extended to the rear on the ground floor to enlarge the kitchen and dining room.
Both Woodmansterne and Chipstead Valley Primary Schools are within walking distance and Woodmansterne Village caters for daily needs with shops, takeaways, a newsagent, hairdresser, beauty salon, post office and has a great pub. The village green is a great space and the annual May Queen Fete is a lovely tradition.

My parents absolutely loved the area - the community spirit is really quite special. This is such a family friendly area.
They moved here and rented the property to start with and then bought it later on.
They added a garage and the extension, and have replaced the double glazing where needed. The boiler has been replaced circa 3 years ago and the property has been rewired and a new consumer unit fitted.
My father used to walk to Chipstead station every day commuting to London, and enjoyed the fresh country air on his way home. They felt truly lucky to live in such a wonderful area for such a long time.
I believe that there is the possibility to extend further - either to the side or on the first floor to the rear.
