We are delighted to offer for sale this substantial 5 bedroom family home, built in the 1930 s by Frank Herbert Chown, with his flamboyant signature character aesthetics making this a quintessential Horsley home.

Once across the threshold, many of the rooms enjoy the warmth of the exposed joinery from the original era of build which include oak mullion windows with double glazed leaded light windows, characterful brick fireplaces and wood flooring to name but a few. The property has been cleverly enlarged over the years and to the ground floor there are a total of 4 reception rooms, one with a semi vaulted ceiling, an excellent sized kitchen breakfast room and a large utility room which could easily be re purposed as a family room, if so desired.

To the first floor there are 5 bedrooms, one of which enjoys a private balcony overlooking the gardens and two bathrooms, the largest of which has both a semi vaulted ceiling and a Jack & Jill arrangement to the landing. The character continues on this floor with oriel splay bays to two of the bedrooms and should one wish, there is also space for a third bath shower room to be simply installed en suite to the largest of the bedrooms.

The grounds extend to 0.4 Acre in total with house set beyond a sweeping carriage driveway where there is a detached garage with a covered car port to the rear which also makes for a delightful Al Fresco dining space. The rear gardens are beautifully laid out into a series of rooms created by mature planting with terrace seating to the rear of the house, lawns dissected by a stone bridge over a small stream and a wonderful variety of trees and shrubs including fruit trees and boundary hedging for all year round privacy.

Pennymead Drive is a highly regarded location, being centrally located in the village just 1 2 mile from the station & shops, and just a short stroll to the tennis club and cricket ground, beyond which one can walk straight out into open countryside. The area abounds with not only a rich variety of recreational amenities but also excellent State & Private schools.

In all, for the purchaser seeking a beautiful character home in a premier private road location, this is one not to miss.
