4 bedroom detached house for sale

What the seller says:

"We fell for Southview Rd - love at first sight on Bank Holiday Monday, Aug 1999. My partner & I pulled up at the bottom of the drive with the Estate Agents particulars - we looked at each other and knew then, this was our dream home. More than 25 happy years later... All can say is we were so lucky to find this place. Most of our neighbours have been here 30+ years or recently moved in as the original owners retired. This place is a 'keeper' - and No. 16 is the jewel in the Southview Rd crown. Recently completely renovated, updated & beautified, so much so that some think this is a new build - especially given the brand new roof/resin drive & patios / new designer kitchen diner/utility room & state of the art cinema room. The garden was redesigned in 2024 to a very high standard that now perfectly complements its woodland hillside surroundings. Explore yourself the daytime beauty, serenity and views across the valley to Kenley Aerodrome, plus its ( secret) gorgeously lit up magical transformation at night. A unique designer garden with a stunning log cabin, two barbecue areas, various loggias, waterfall cascading ponds, seating areas and hidden grottos. My property has been showered with love and you will see that in every aspect on every point in the property, whether it's inside or outside. No expense has been spared. It is now time to pass the baton on to the next lucky couple/ family."

This charming four-bedroom detached home is located on a private road and offers the best of both worlds, with a peaceful setting yet walking distance to the train station. The layout has been designed for both entertaining and relaxed family life. The property stands out as a rare find, combining a generous and versatile internal footprint with impressive grounds and outbuildings.

By nature of its setting, a lovely feature of this home is the front garden, which offers the perfect place to enjoy the sunset.

The front porch offers storage space for boots as well as a W.C. On entry, a central hall includes built-in storage. To the left is the main lounge, an impressive dual-aspect space that extends the house's depth and offers a bright and airy feel, great for entertaining, with doors onto the patio.

Opposite, a second reception room offers exceptional versatility. Currently used as a dedicated cinema room, this could also serve as a formal dining room or an expansive playroom. This beautiful space provides a separate retreat from the main living area, ideal for media entertainment or hosting guests.

Positioned at the rear of the house with views over the grounds, the spacious and well-planned kitchen provides a great space for kids to sit at the island with a built-in bench. Off the kitchen is a large utility room and a door to the garden, keeping day-to-day household activities separate from the main living and entertaining areas.

On the first floor, the landing leads to four well-proportioned double bedrooms, with built-in storage and a family bathroom. The principal suite has an ensuite with a corner bath.

Outside, the rear grounds are as thoughtfully configured as the interior, with an attractive and unique landscaped garden sanctuary. The generous sun terrace, a prime spot for alfresco dining and entertaining, leads to an ornamental pond, and a charming decorative bridge adds a tranquil focal point to the lower patio. Tiered gardens follow the natural slope of the hillside, with mature, established plants and natural rockery that ensure superb privacy, a wonderful green backdrop, and numerous quiet spots for contemplation with potential elevated views. The grounds feature a clever division of space, with further secluded areas on the upper levels. A bespoke wooden pergola shelter with a covered entertainment area is great for year-round barbeques. Whilst a detached summer house provides the perfect solution for a secluded home office, an artist’s studio or a gym. The rear garden backs onto woodland, providing a real sense of retreat and relaxation amongst nature.

At the front, the property also benefits from ample secure parking with a driveway and a double garage with storage options.

Southview Road is conveniently located near the Surrey Hills Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, offering excellent access to outdoor activities and renowned trails, including the famous North Downs Way. The vibrant local community provides a wide range of amenities, shops, and popular eateries. The area is well connected, with Caterham Station (c. 6-minute drive), offering frequent, direct services to London Victoria and London Bridge, along with an extensive local bus network and easy access to the A22 and M25. There are also excellent schools nearby, including highly regarded independent options such as Caterham School, Woldingham School, and Oakhyrst Grange Preparatory.
