"COMFORTABLE AND IMPOSING LATE VICTORIAN PROPERTY OF OVER 4,000 SQ.FT STANDING WITHIN A PRIVATE ROAD ENJOYING VIEWS TO THE SOUTH

Westbury House is located on the highly favoured Icehouse Wood, one of Oxted's most sought after residential addresses on the south side of Oxted. It is conveniently located within walking distance of both Oxted and Hurst Green stations both serving London Bridge and Victoria. Oxted's thriving town centre is within approximately a mile with its range of educational, recreational and comprehensive shopping facilities. The M25 motorway is easily accessed via junction 6 with good connections to Gatwick, Heathrow and Stansted airports, the Channel Tunnel and Ebbsfleet International stations.

Westbury House forms the principal wing of a substantial residence believed to have been built just after the arrival of the railway to Oxted in 1885. On inspection the house has a very grand and gracious feel. Nowhere is this more evident than in the half panelled and galleried dining hall. Here a 30 ft ceiling and high stone mullioned windows convey something of the Gothic mansion.
The house benefits from many modern improvements to both the utility and cosmetic appeal of this property. Specifically these include under-floor heating to tiled floor areas supplied by a modern efficient boiler which also supports two mega-flow water tanks. Sympathetic double glazing and the comprehensive refurbishment and re-fitting of the kitchen/family room,bathroom and shower rooms.
On the ground floor the kitchen/family room is at the heart of the house and is warmed by a modern gas and electric Aga complimented by a bespoke solid wood kitchen with a large granite breakfast island designed and fitted by Winchester interiors. A utility area/boot room forms a neat link to a private office which has an aspect onto the courtyard entrance to the property.
Working open fire places supplied by an outside log store lend a warm ambience to the grand hall, dining and drawing rooms. Original and new oak flooring, beautiful joinery panel work and stone masonry are a signature feature of what is in our opinion an outstanding property well worth viewing.
Outside:
Westbury House is approached from Icehouse Wood over a driveway providing parking in front of a detached double garage with up and over door. A wrought iron gate provides access to the entrance courtyard and terrace area which forms a delightful area for entertaining and al fresco dining.
The garden is a delightful feature with steps and pathways to the principal area of garden which is laid predominantly to an expanse of lawn bound by mature shrubs and trees in all totalling about 0.34 of an acre.

Directions:
From Junction 6 of the M25 motorway follow the A25 in an easterly direction towards Oxted and Westerham. After passing Old Oxted village continue through the first set of traffic lights and under a viaduct then turn right into Rockfield Road. At the top of the hill turn right into Icehouse Wood where Westbury House can be found after a short distance along on the left hand side.
