The Agent's Opinion:

This detached Family Home combines classic aesthetically pleasing architectural features with modern day practicalities, fitting for family life. The property displays a prominent bay window and gable to the front elevation along with a covered porch area, a handsome mix of brick-facing and white painted rendering, complemented by classic black timber facings and leaded light windows in keeping with the classic "Tudor" style design.

The more modern, family-friendly practicalities include: an en-suite shower room to the master bedroom; a hall cloakroom; and a fitted kitchen with a separate utility room converted from the garage space; and of course, gas central heating and double glazed windows.

A particularly appealing feature to the house is the conservatory; a genuine enhancement to the existing living space, complementing practicality with a sense of hospitality! The lounge (which pans the full width of the back of the house) and the conservatory both have twin doors and windows which lead out onto the stone patio and delightfully secluded, level rear gardens; making it an ideal home for hosting guests and entertaining.

The location is a particular advantage, being right at the border with Chipstead Village and directly opposite the opening into Rickman Hill Park with delightful views of the same from the front of the house!
