" We are delighted to bring to the market, this attractive and rare three bedroom detached bungalow, that is located in a private small cul de sac on the edges of Kingswood village. This is a home that offers ample flexibility and opportunity to make your own, be it in just putting your own stamp on the existing footprint, or possibly even extending upwards and outwards.

Hornbeam Cottage has been in ownership by the current family for many years, and been much loved during that period, not only internally but also in the gardens, which are a big part of the overall appeal to the bungalow. The property is now available with no onward chain, which again could suit anyone looking for an unencumbered move, be it for yourself or perhaps a member of the family. The accommodation is light and spacious, comprising a porch, leading to an entrance hall, a large front to back double aspect sitting room, open plan kitchen dining room area, three bedrooms and a good size family bathroom. Some of the features and charm that make Hornbeam so appealing, include herringbone wooden flooring, open fireplace, double glazed leaded lite windows, beamed ceilings, gas fired heating by radiators, and more besides.

To the outside, one approaches the property by way of a private driveway with access to the double garage and workshop, and flanked by mature borders, lawns and attractive, well stocked flower beds. To the side of the property is an attractive secluded courtyard, providing passage from the front garden to the rear. The rear gardens offer plenty of terrace space for outside entertaining, leading to sweeping lawns and offering a beautiful, well established and secluded garden, with the great benefit of having access directly on the woodlands at the back, leading to countryside walks for miles, perfect for dog owners.

The village of Kingswood is easily accessed from this location and provides a reliable commuter line to London, as well as a comprehensive parade of local shops and restaurants, including a convenience store post office, off license, Waterhouse Cafe, bakery, hairdressers, beauticians and The Kingswood Arms public house. Locally there is a wide choice of state and independent schools including Chinthurst, Aberdour, and Kingswood Primary, whilst further schooling including Dunnottar, Micklefield, and Reigate Grammar are found in the nearby town of Reigate. For the golf enthusiasts there are four world renowned golf clubs close by; Kingswood Golf and Country club, Walton Heath and the RAC golf. Horse Riding schools and stabling can be found in Kingswood, Chipstead, Tadworth and Walton on the Hill.
