A rare opportunity to acquire this exceptional six double bedroom, attached period residence with over 4540 sq ft of beautifully maintained living accommodation across three floors. Set within Holmwood Common, with approximately half an acre of mature grounds, the property further benefits from a detached one-bedroom annexe and a separate 4-acre paddock, ideal for equestrian or recreational use. Backing onto the serene Redlands Wood and its network of nature walks, yet just a short drive from the amenities, schools, and transport links of Dorking town centre, this home offers the perfect blend of countryside tranquillity and convenience.
The property has been lovingly maintained and thoughtfully updated over the years, preserving its original charm and character while offering spacious, flexible accommodation ideal for modern family living and does need to be viewed to appreciate everything this impressive house and grounds has to offer.
On entering, you're greeted by a grand entrance hall with high ceilings, intricate cornicing and a sweeping staircase. To the front is a generous living room featuring a striking bay window overlooking the gardens and an ornate marble fireplace, reflecting the home's period heritage. The elegant dining room, perfect for entertaining, boasts another bay window with original wooden shutters and French doors opening to a patio, making it a versatile space for both formal occasions and relaxed gatherings. At the heart of the home lies the kitchen/breakfast room, equipped with a traditional gas AGA, induction hob, and a mix of classic cabinetry. A step-down leads to a cosy dining nook with tiled flooring and garden views. Adjacent is a substantial utility room offering excellent storage and laundry facilities. Completing the ground floor is a separate study with WC and direct access to the side of the property-ideal for home working or running a business from home. From the hallway stairs lead down to the 311sq ft wine cellar, a fantastic space for storage.
Stairs rise to a spacious first-floor landing which leads to three impressive double bedrooms each with large bay windows and plenty of space for additional furniture. There is a bathroom as well as a separate shower room on this floor.
A short flight of stairs leads to the second floor sleeping accommodation, which benefits from its own access from the side of the property, making it an ideal annexe for extended family or teenagers. There are an additional three bedrooms on this level as well as a shower room.
Outside
The grounds surrounding the property are a true highlight extending to approx 1/2 of an acre, with beautifully maintained wraparound gardens creating a sense of seclusion and space. A large shingle driveway provides ample parking for multiple vehicles, while expansive lawns to both the east and west of the house are framed by mature trees, specimen shrubs, and thoughtfully designed patio areas-perfect for enjoying the garden from morning through to evening. Well-stocked flower beds deliver vibrant seasonal colour and visual interest throughout the year. There is a single garage with power and lighting located adjacent to the property.
Detached Annexe
Positioned to the side of the main house is a self-contained one-bedroom annexe, ideal for guests, multi-generational living, or generating rental income. The annexe features a fully fitted kitchen, shower room, and a spiral staircase leading to a spacious double bedroom, offering independent and comfortable accommodation.
