The Property With its wide frontage the property provides impressive kerb appeal, entered via a front door located to the side gives access to an entrance porch, further beyond is an entrance hallway.
Downstairs flows well with the third bedroom located to the ground floor to the front, there is a good sized lounge and dining room to the rear, bathroom plus a large extended kitchen/breakfast room.
Externally you can access the property's study/bedroom four to the rear with a WC and this in our opinion would offer annex potential or ideal for those who work from home.
To the first floor there are two good sized bedrooms with good storage and access to eaves storage which runs from the front to the rear.

There is an array of flower/shrub borders and an ornamental garden pond and a shed. The garden enjoys a good degree of privacy.
With its size and width there is potential to extend, add and improve to the property as will be apparent by the neighbouring properties.
Vendor Thoughts We purchased this house in 1970 and have improved and adapted it to our own growing family requirements.
The property has been an absolute delight to us and holds many happy memories over the years with family, friends and entertaining.
It is now time for us to downsize where we hope to move to Banstead Village. We sincerely hope the new owners will enjoy it as much as we have.
