5 bedroom detached house

Built around 1956 with pretty farmhouse-style character, the property has been transformed in more recent years with sympathetic extension and refurbishment to create a family home that is remarkably spacious. That feeling of space and light is enhanced by the large central hall featuring a brick fireplace and originally designed as a dining hall. The lovely Sitting Room features a beamed ceiling and windows to three aspects and double doors leading out to the rear gardens. The Inglenook style, full-height brick fireplace has an open grate and the open-plan Dining Room can also be accessed from the hall. Recently, the Kitchen was refurbished with a fully glazed Breakfast area with door to a pretty courtyard, contemporary pale grey gloss units have quartz-granite surfaces and integrated appliances. All the five bedrooms are of a good size and there are two ensuites including the large Principal Suite with a fitted Dressing Room. There's also a family Shower Room. The gardens are certainly a feature, being mature and landscaped, encompassing the house with natural privacy and views over the fields to the rear. There is ample parking in addition to the detached Double Garage with Workshop and stairs to an Office or Studio, perfect for working from home.

Backing directly onto open fields the property enjoys a peaceful, tucked-away setting in sought-after Kingswood Village. The village is just half a mile away and offers local shopping, restaurants, the Waterhouse café and the Kingswood Arms gastro-pub. For more diverse shopping and supermarkets, Reigate, Epsom and Banstead Village are all within a few minutes' drive. There are frequent rail services to London Bridge and Victoria from Kingswood Station and nearby, the A217 provides an arterial route to London and to the M25 motorway at Reigate Hill (J8), giving swift access to Heathrow and Gatwick Airports in some 45 and 25 minutes respectively. Some of Surrey's finest schools are available locally including Epsom College, Dunottar, Reigate Grammar, City of London Freemen's, Chinthurst, Aberdour and Banstead Prep. Other schools such as Whitgift are easily reached by train or bus. This location is encompassed by beautiful North Downs countryside for walks, cycling and riding and almost every conceivable sport, leisure and cultural pursuit is catered for nearby including Kingswood's two golf clubs and tennis club.
