*NO ONWARD CHAIN* A delightful and beautifully presented three-bedroom & bonus loft room detached period house, located in this charming village, featuring a fantastic extended kitchen breakfast room and a wrap-around garden. The property also boasts a converted Shepherd's Hut, perfect for use as a home office.
Set back from the road behind a picture-perfect lychgate-style entrance, this family home dates back to the 1700s. The combination of oak beams, an inglenook fireplace, and an Aga, along with a contemporary sense of style, creates a stunning and inviting home.
The generous proportions of the double-aspect sitting room are framed by exposed oak beams, with a magnificent fireplace that serves as an instant focal point. Across the hallway, the superior kitchen is fully fitted with tasteful Shaker-style cabinets and granite countertops. It includes a modern range cooker and an American-style fridge-freezer. A large central island with a breakfast bar separates the room, while the dining and seating area is complemented by a vaulted glass ceiling with stunning oak beams. French doors and bi-fold doors enhance the light-filled space, making it perfect for both family meals and entertaining. Adjacent to the kitchen is a separate spacious utility room, with exposed brick walls, a wood floor, and an eye-catching Rayburn.
Cleverly designed, the principal bedroom features a dressing room and a large en-suite bathroom on the ground floor, with a private staircase leading up to the bedroom. A door opens onto a generous sized balcony, adding the perfect finishing touch. The charm and character continue throughout the home, with three more good-sized bedrooms and a bonus loft room, which could serve as an occasional bedroom. All the rooms are well-maintained and offer comfortable living spaces. The stylish family shower room includes a glass-framed walk-in shower and a heritage suite finish off the internal accommodation.
Outside
The lychgate-style gateway opens onto a charming walled garden with a brick-paved path leading to the double-fronted façade, complete with distinctive chimney breasts and climbing roses. Step out from the dining area and choose between a paved patio or a decked terrace to enjoy outdoor meals. An idyllic Shepherd's Hut offers a good-sized home office space, and there is an additional brick outbuilding with a viewpoint.

About this agent
Seymours Dorking is headed up by local Directors David Driscoll and Jamie Hynes bringing over 38 years' experience of selling homes throughout the many towns and picturesque villages of the Surrey Hills. The Dorking office fits perfectly into Seymours' network neighbouring the highly successful Guildford office. At Seymours Dorking we deal with properties of all sizes, from the town centre to the many beautiful surrounding villages.We offer free valuations, help for clients buying and selling property and aim to provide honest advice in all situations, in a friendly, relaxed atmosphere. David, who has lived in the area for over 38years, says "We are committed to providing an excellent level of service. Living in Brockham with a young family I know exactly why the Dorking area is such a wonderful place to live and aim to get that across to anyone looking to buy in the area." Jamie, who has been an estate agent for 18 years said, "What makes us stand out from the crowd first and foremost is customer care and always being available. We both love what we do and have a passion for finding a solution." The office is stylish and modern and in planning the design we have incorporated a play area for children to enjoy, plus refreshments are on offer at all times with a warm welcome to everyone. We are proud to say we have raised over £4,500 for Macmillan Cancer Support. We are extremely excited to announce that we will now be working with The Brigitte Trust to try to raise awareness and as much money as possible for this wonderful charity.
