4 bedroom detached house for sale

There’s a quiet charm to Holmesdale Road — that quintessential Reigate blend of period character and modern life — and this four-bedroom home, with its rich local history, embodies that spirit beautifully. Once a bustling 19th-century shop, later two characterful flats, and now lovingly reunited into a single family home, it stands as a story of thoughtful reinvention and enduring style.

Stepping inside, there’s an immediate sense of calm. The interior is cool-toned and contemporary, yet still honours its past with subtle period details and a layout that flows naturally from one space to the next. The dining room offers a gracious setting for family meals and gatherings, while the adjoining kitchen is light, practical, and well-designed for modern living. A downstairs bathroom completes this level, cleverly integrated without compromising the home’s generous sense of openness.

The lower ground floor has been transformed into a welcoming family room, a versatile space that could serve just as easily as a cosy cinema den, a teenager’s retreat, or even a fifth bedroom when guests come to stay. It’s a space that breathes flexibility, very much in tune with the rhythms of family life today.

The first floor offers a sense of quiet retreat. A former kitchen has been reimagined as a sleek utility area — a nod to the home’s layered history alongside a stylish family bathroom. The principal bedroom is a masterclass in light and proportion, with soft natural tones and sunshine streaming through generous windows. Across the landing, a spare bedroom provides a perfect guest space or nursery.

Rising again to the top floor, the loft conversion reveals two further bedrooms, both surprisingly spacious beneath the eaves. These rooms feel tucked away yet open, ideal for older children, or a creative studio simply peaceful corners from which to admire the rooftops of Reigate.

Beyond the back doors lies a garden that feels wonderfully private. At its far end sits a charming annexe, currently used as a home gym, though equally suited as a studio space. The garden manages that rare balance of practicality and beauty, with room for dining, playing, and quiet moments alike.

A generous garage provides ample storage and workshop space, while a discreet roller shutter conceals the driveway from view — a thoughtful detail that enhances both privacy and the home’s sleek street presence.

Holmesdale Road is known for its convenience and sense of community. The current owners have loved having their children’s schools, the train station and favourite coffee shop right on the doorstep, along with a welcoming mix of young families and long-established neighbours.

The town of Reigate offers a vibrant mix of cafés, shops and pubs, with Priory Park and nearby National Trust countryside for weekends and walks. Reigate station at the end of the road provides fast links to London, Gatwick and surrounding Surrey towns.
