Property description
This 16th to 19th century locally listed family home has only been sold twice since 1870. It is situated on the Surrey Hills/North Downs Way in an area of designated outstanding beauty.
Although this large family home offers a wealth of rooms and space, it still has that homely cosy feeling one often looks for in a family home. The heart of the home is the kitchen, like most homes - but this one is special with a rustic feeling of a free standing kitchen and a touch of luxury finished with a granite worktop, complete with an Aga.
Many examples of character are found throughout from the beams and oak panelling, to the several working open fire places. They have even recycled one on the old stable doors adding a part of history to the recent, yet perfectly blended-in oak timbered conservatory.
With a large family, there is no need to fight over who has the biggest bedroom - all bedrooms on the first floor are of a good size. What’s more, the whole top floor comprises a self-contained flat - perfect for long term guest or perhaps a family member living with you.
Are you looking for some land to keep livestock? With 3.836 acres of land there is plenty of space. Add to this separate access to the field, there could be scope to add stabling to fulfil the dream of having your own horse at home.
What the Owner says:
when we were looking to move away from London there were many things to consider. We wanted a quiet location but something that offered us good transport connections.
We have just that, with the M25 close enough to benefit from, we can reach Gatwick in 20 minutes and 40 minutes to Heathrow yet surrounded by countryside.
With 5 train stations within a short drive, we have been spoilt for choice!
After over 46 happy years here, raising our family it’s now time for us to downsize and for a new family to enjoy and make as many memories as we have
