Think You Have To Choose Between The Commute And The Countryside? You can reach London Bridge in 50 minutes and ancient woodland in 10.

This detached chalet bungalow on a leafy lane delivers both - with three double bedrooms and a roll-top bath to come home to.

Most people just accept that the commute and the countryside are a trade-off - that you can have one or the other, but not both within the same ten-minute walk.

This leafy little corner of Kenley is the exception.

Kenley Common is 138 acres of chalk grassland and ancient woodland surrounding the former Battle of Britain airfield - a genuine, unhurried place to walk, run or just decompress.

And it's only a 10 minute walk down the lane.

Kenley station is in the opposite direction but takes roughly the same time, with direct services reaching London Bridge and Victoria in around 40 minutes.

The house itself sits on Kenley Lane and like the location, from the outside it’s quiet and understated.

A full-height Gothic arch brick fireplace dominates one end of the living room, with French doors that open onto the private and secluded garden at the back.

The kitchen is traditional and homely, with a range style cooker, Belfast sink and a large rear-facing window.

A utility room sits alongside, and there's a breakfast bar area that works well for grabbing a quick slice of toast on a weekday morning. There are three double bedrooms.

The main bedroom is on the first floor and has its own bathroom with a freestanding roll-top bath. A separate shower room serves the rest of the house.

The ground floor bedroom works well as a guest room or home office, with its own access from the hallway.

Outside, the low maintenance rear garden is enclosed by mature hedging and established planting - making it feel private without feeling hemmed in.

A patio sits directly off the living room, with a small area of lawn.

The integral garage adds useful storage or off-street parking or conversion potential (STPP), especially as the driveway gives you space to park at the front.

Everything you need day-to-day is nearby on Godstone Road - there’s a Co-op and a choice of local shops and takeaways.

Purley and Coulsdon are both a short drive away for more choice and bigger name stores. But the honest draw here is the leafy lane, the Common, and the train.

Very few addresses put ancient woodland and a fast train to London Bridge within the same ten-minute walk. Get in touch to arrange a viewing - we're expecting plenty of interest.
