About
Woodleigh is a handsome detached Victorian home in the heart of Kenley.
Set on Kenley Lane, it retains a wealth of original period features and has been lovingly cared for and tastefully refurbished over the years.
The property offers approximately just under 2,600 sqft of versatile accommodation arranged over three floors. The ground floor opens into a welcoming entrance hall.
To the left, the elegant dining room is centred around an attractive fireplace and framed by the home’s iconic Victorian front bay window.
Beyond this is a spacious kitchen and dining room with a stylish modern fitted kitchen.
To the right of the hall, a generous sitting room enjoys dual-aspect bay windows and direct access to the private rear garden, allowing natural light to fill the room.
A further family room also benefits from a dual aspect, while a cloakroom completes this floor.
On the lower ground floor, a versatile reception room is currently arranged as a study and could suit a range of uses.
There is also a useful utility and boot room with direct access to the rear garden, alongside a beautifully appointed four-piece bathroom with a freestanding roll-top bath.
Further practical features include undercroft storage and a recently created boiler room, accessed from the front of the property.
Upstairs, there are four well-proportioned double bedrooms and a family bathroom.
The impressive principal suite sits above the main living room and enjoys a dual aspect, double bay windows, an en-suite bathroom and built-in storage.
Outside Set well back from the road and occupying a central position within its beautifully manicured plot, the property is approached via an attractive paved carriage driveway.
The rear garden is predominantly laid to lawn, with carefully maintained planting and decorative pots. A thoughtfully landscaped path complements the natural beauty of the surrounding countryside.
To the front, a generous driveway provides ample parking and turning space for several vehicles.
The garden also features a charming, solid brick-built outhouse, offering a versatile space for a range of uses.
Situation Woodleigh is situated towards the summit of Kenley Lane, one of Kenley’s most exclusive roads.
Running through the heart of the area and leading directly to Kenley Common, the lane is known for its substantial homes, leafy surroundings and limited number of addresses.
Kenley and Whyteleafe stations offer regular services into Central London, while the M25 and Gatwick Airport are both within easy reach.
The area is also highly sought after for its excellent choice of state and independent schools, beautiful open countryside, golf courses and extensive recreational facilities-offering families an appealing balance of town and country living.
