East Fort Cottage Reigate Hill, Reigate, RH2 9RN

This exceptional four/five bedroom detached family home occupies a truly unique and enviable position on the North Downs Way, offering breathtaking views to both the north and south and providing a rare opportunity to acquire a property steeped in local history.

Originally built in 1900 as two bungalows for the fort keeper and caretaker, this home has been thoughtfully extended and reconfigured over the years to offer versatile and spacious accommodation suitable for modern family life.

The bespoke oak front door opens into a welcoming and generously proportioned hallway, which gives access to a ground floor shower room with WC.

At one end of the property, a large reception room with a striking fireplace and log burner serves as an inviting focal point, enjoying a double aspect with doors leading into the rear garden and stairs rising to the first floor.

A further cosy sitting room flows seamlessly into the expansive kitchen diner, which is undoubtedly the heart of the home, featuring an abundance of storage, a substantial central island, and an Aga that provides warmth throughout the winter months while also heating the hot water.

Adjacent to the kitchen is an additional reception space, offering the potential to create an impressive open-plan kitchen/sitting/dining area, through to a further smaller reception room at the front, a perfect office or extra bedroom and a large conservatory with two sets of double doors.

The remainder of the ground floor is configured as a self-contained annex, complete with its own kitchen, lounge, WC, and bedroom with shower, ideal for multi-generational living or guest accommodation.

Upstairs, the four bedrooms are interlinked in the current layout, complemented by a family bathroom and an en-suite.

Concealed at the bottom of the large south facing rear garden are wooden out buildings currently used as a cattery could easily be removed. This will be closed at the point of sale.

The property also benefits from a large garage, double stables, an office, and a utility room, providing ample space for a variety of uses.

Ample driveway parking is available, with one drive giving access to the garage and another leading through to the outbuildings.

The setting is truly spectacular, with the North Downs Way and Reigate Fort on your doorstep and just a ten-minute walk to the stunning Inglis Memorial and miles of open countryside.

This is a rare opportunity to acquire a home with such a unique history, flexible living spaces, and an outstanding location, all within easy reach of local amenities and transport links.
