4 bedroom detached house

Situated in this quiet lane on the edge of the village, a charming detached house of cottage character, now available for the first time in almost 50 years. Set in an unspoiled and secluded plot of over 0.4 acre, this well-located family home has great potential for extension and refurbishment in this valuable location.

One of Kingswood's earlier houses, this property is believed to have been built around 1920 and it still occupies its original, broad and level plot of over 0.4 acre. In more recent years, the house has been extended and updated to enhance its family accommodation, whilst retaining those irreplaceable character features. On the ground floor there are now three living rooms including the dining room which was once prepared as a ground-floor bed-sitting room for a dependent relative.

There are four bedrooms including a good sized principal suite with ensuite shower room and a dressing room or study. There remains ample space for substantial extension, subject to usual consents, and scope for refurbishment. A large, detached double garage was built with a workshop area and 'loft' storage and the broad frontage has an In and Out driveway which provides ample parking. Double gates lead to the lovely rear garden which extends to around 140' x 90' and enjoys a high degree of privacy and a South-West aspect.

Situated in this quiet lane, the property is within just a few minutes' walk of Kingswood Village and Station, whilst also being close to open countryside walks. The village 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. Kingswood 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.
