Old Paddock Downs Lane, Leatherhead

A rare opportunity to acquire a characterful detached home set within approximately four acres of private grounds, enjoying beautiful views towards the Surrey Hills, just a short walk from Leatherhead town centre.

Situated along the desirable Downs Lane, Old Paddock occupies a wonderful, secluded position surrounded by mature greenery and open countryside.

The setting offers an exceptional sense of privacy, yet remains remarkably convenient for Leatherhead’s historic town centre, independent shops, restaurants and mainline railway station.

A setting steeped in history As its name suggests, Old Paddock sits on land long associated with horses and grazing, on the slopes of Leatherhead Downs.

People have farmed and walked these hills for thousands of years: Neolithic flints and ancient coins have been found on the downs, and an old trackway once crossed them nearby.

Leatherhead itself was a royal estate in Saxon times, named in the will of Alfred the Great and recorded in the Domesday Book.

The house The property provides approximately 1,119 sq ft of accommodation, comprising three reception rooms, two bedrooms and two bathrooms.

Full of individual character, though now in need of updating throughout, the house offers an exciting opportunity for a thoughtful restoration.

A buyer could retain its original charm while creating a comfortable and distinctive Surrey home. There may also be scope for sympathetic alterations or extensions, subject to the necessary consents.

Annexe and stables To the side of the house, an annexe offers wonderful flexibility once restored, whether as guest accommodation, space for extended family or a home office.

The property also benefits from stables, which could be brought back into equestrian use or adapted for a studio or workshop (subject to the necessary consents).

The grounds The grounds are a particularly special feature.

Extending to approximately four acres, they offer substantial outdoor space, mature surroundings and far-reaching views across the Surrey countryside.

It is a setting that lends itself to peaceful country living, gardening, keeping horses and enjoying the natural landscape.

Old Paddock presents an increasingly uncommon opportunity to restore and enjoy a characterful home in an outstanding position, combining the privacy and space of a countryside property with the convenience of Leatherhead on its doorstep.
