"HISTORIC GRADE II LISTED COTTAGE on APPROX 0.8 ACRE with ORIGINAL 16TH CENTURY FEATURES 28 FT LIVING ROOM

This is not just a home it s a slice of English history.

Tucked away along a peaceful country lane on the fringes of Redhill, this Grade II listed cottage is believed to date back to the 16th century, having once served as a gamekeeper s lodge for the surrounding estate. Lovingly preserved and rich in character, the property sits within approx 0.8 acres of established, mature grounds complete with an original stone well and an elegant in and out gravel driveway.

Step inside and the story continues. From the moment you enter the original living room and kitchen, with their exposed timber beams, stonework and open fireplace, you re wrapped in the atmosphere of centuries past. In contrast, the stunning 28 ft triple aspect living room, added as a later extension but made to match, brings a sense of light and volume, offering expansive garden views and a second feature fireplace. The home thoughtfully wraps around a private courtyard, creating a seamless connection between inside and out. A downstairs toilet adds further practicality.

Upstairs, there are three generous double bedrooms, a family bathroom, and a private ensuite to the master bedroom. The layout flows effortlessly, offering over 1700 sq ft of living space that suits both families and those seeking a quieter, rural pace of life.

An addition is the planning permission for a double garage with staircase leading to a first floor games room or studio ideal for those looking to create a home office, gym, or creative space. The foundations for this has been started.

Despite its peaceful, countryside feel, the property is superbly connected. Merstham Train Station is under two miles away, offering swift links into London, while the villages of Merstham and Chaldon provide a range of local shops, cosy pubs, and restaurants. Surrounded by rolling countryside and bridleways, yet within easy reach of amenities, this is a home that effortlessly combines character, potential, and an exceptional lifestyle.
