Description
7 Downside Road is a substantial family home measuring at over 3,500 sq ft and set in a popular no through road within approximately 1.3 miles of the town centre. Understood to have been built in 1928, this impressive character property occupies an elevated position with fabulous views of the surrounding countryside and towards London.
The welcoming entrance hall leads to four generous sized reception rooms and a useful study. Each of these rooms are wonderfully light with flowing accommodation and versatile in arrangement and use. The drawing room, sitting room and large dining area all enjoy pretty garden views and access outside to the terrace and gardens beyond. There are two traditional style kitchens, a utility and a pantry.
To the first floor is the impressive principal bedroom suite with an adjoining dressing room and en suite with bath and shower. Across the landing are four further bedrooms serviced by two bathrooms. The sixth bedroom can be found on the second floor along with a separate WC and large eaves storage.
Outside, the gardens provide a private and tranquil setting framed in mature hedging and specimen trees, of note is the spectacular cedar. There is large gently sloping lawn and a number of flowering borders. Downside Road has direct access onto the Downs offering miles of beautiful countryside.
There are a number of sheds proving useful storage space along with two spaces below the property which are currently utilised for general storage.
There is a large carriage driveway and an integrated single garage.
