Guide Price: £1,550,000 - £1,600,000 An imposing character residence situated privately at the end of a sought-after Ashtead cul-de-sac, within walking distance of Ashtead village and its highly regarded local state and private schools, offered with no onward chain.

The current owners have lovingly restored and extended the property, thoughtfully modernising whilst still retaining many original features, with well-proportioned living space for all the family.

The impressive nature of this property, both from the front and rear, comes alive during the evening; the perfect home to entertain and enjoy winter nights by the fire or outside in the summer in the lovingly curated westerly facing garden.

The front door opens onto a welcoming entrance hall and leads to one of the reception rooms with a feature fireplace.

With open plan living which leads into the large sitting room and then further to the newly extended study, this property has a natural flow to it, whilst still providing distinct areas for family life and socialising.

The kitchen/breakfast room boasts bi-fold doors which open to the beautiful garden, making indoor/outdoor living one of its many charms.

Off the kitchen, you have another reception room currently being used as a kids playroom. A useful utility room is also off the kitchen, along with a handy downstairs shower room and WC.

The first-floor landing leads to five bedrooms, with a family bathroom.

Of particular note is the recently refurbished master suite, which combines newly fitted wooden floors, a sumptuous en-suite with double shower and bath, and a particularly well-crafted walk-in wardrobe.

Alongside the current owners adding a 300sq ft.

double-story extension in 2023, which now provides a generously sized study downstairs and a beautiful en-suite and walk-in-wardrobe onto the master bedroom, the property also has extant planning permission for a further double storey extension to the rear off the kitchen (approx.

800sq ft), providing the new owners the opportunity to add their touch to this charming and unique home.

The garden has been lovingly developed and tended to, with multiple wisteria now adorning the rear of the property, providing a stunning flowering display to look forward to each spring.

At the bottom of the garden, recently added is a useful gate for easy access on foot to the Greville Primary School.

Outside, the front of the property is approached by a shingle driveway providing ample forecourt parking for 5+ cars and leads to a useful double garage, via an original wrought iron side gate.

Deed titles also include ownership of the verge adjacent to Dorking Road at the front, as well as the verge and shrubbed area leading onto Devitt Close to the rear.
