A four bedroom attached wing, formerly part of the stable block of Castle Hill Estate set in this peaceful and private position, amongst pretty gardens in the village of Bletchingley.
Description
Garden Cottage is tucked away in this pretty but private setting on the grounds of what was formerly known as Castle Hill manor house. The Victorian manor House along with the associated cottages and outbuildings were all completed around 1868 and occupied for a number of years as a significant family estate.
Subsequently the estate has been subdivided and part of the former stable block and courtyard has been converted to form what is now known as Garden Cottage. The estate was itself built on the site of Bletchingley Castle which, it is believed, was destroyed in the 1200s but remains a site of historic interest with parts of the old castle moat still being in evidence.
This four bedroom home is a wing of what was previously the stable block and courtyard but has been converted into this charming family home. The property retains some of the original character features whilst also offering updated modern fittings and finishes. The result is a comfortable blend of the two which combine to create a delightful and practical family home.
The accommodation is arranged over two floors to provide approximately 1,856 sq ft of space including the double garage, all of which is shown in the attached floor plan. The front of the property is approached along a private driveway off Castle Square.
Features of the accommodation include the impressive main reception and dining rooms with wonderful feature fireplace and southerly aspect doors on to the garden. The kitchen is separate and features a range of modern units and worktops, a traditional pantry and has a separate door to the rear courtyard. There is also a useful cloakroom on this level.
On the first floor the main bedroom has lovely views out over the gardens and a modern en suite shower room. There are three further bedrooms on this level and a modern family bathroom. The main rear garden is beautifully kept and faces south/west.
In addition to the private driveway and off street parking, there is a detached double garage. The pretty gardens are a real feature of the property with large lawns established borders, mature tree and hedge screening and a terrace that is perfect for entertaining.
Location
Garden Cottage is located in the pretty village of Bletchingley. It is ideally placed for communication links to London with Thameslink and Southern services from Redhill or Oxted from 35 minutes.
For the international traveller, Gatwick Airport is 9 miles to the South. The motorway network can be accessed easily via the M25 (junction 6) which is 2 miles away.
Bletchingley village itself has an attractive High Street with a range of local facilities, traditional pubs, local stores, a post office and tea rooms. The larger centres of Redhill, Reigate and Oxted offer more comprehensive shopping and leisure facilities.
The local area is renowned for its pretty Surrey countryside and offers extensive walking and riding. There are a number of schools in the area including Hawthorns Prep in Bletchngley, Caterham, Woldingham, Dunottar and Reigate Grammar School, and Oxted County and St. Bedes state schools.
