This magnificent, spacious early Victorian detached home will be the envy of all your friends and family! While flooded with character from top to toe, it offers all the comforts and contemporary fittings so necessary to a high standard of modern family living.
 
The property’s location adds to its unmatched charm. Situated in an enviable elevated ‘green’ position the rear backs onto Redhill Common – popular with walkers and the fitness-conscious and benefits from stunning high vantage point panoramic views over the Surrey-Sussex countryside. Hidden from the road at the front, the house enjoys an uninterrupted view of Johns Conservation Area and St Johns Church itself with its imposing listed spire.
You almost forget that you are still in suburbia when sitting within the terraced rear gardens or in the fabulous and sensitively restored Victorian conservatory at the front. The latter can be accessed from the property’s large sitting room and also opens out onto a fabulous extensive south facing patio area beautifully paved Reigate stone. An amazing private suntrap, the patio also provides a great space to entertain guests who can be served directly from the kitchen which is fitted with sliding glass doors.
 
The expanse of accommodation that this exceptional home enjoys is laid out over three floors. Features include the drawing and dining rooms connected by each by two wide doors both with elegant working wood fireplaces. The conservatory noted above is accessed inside from the drawing room The kitchen incorporates a stunning range of modern unit, extensive storage space and granite work surfaces together with a very practical central island. The breakfast area is an extremely light area thanks to the skylight windows above and the glass doors noted above. It provides ample space for a table and chairs. There is also a cloakroom on the ground level as well as two cellar rooms, ideal for wine and log storage, plus a separate utility room. We have already mentioned the glorious conservatory and this is accessed via a choice of doors from the largest of the two reception rooms.
 
The main bedroom, with ensuite, is located on the first floor and enjoys the enviable outlook onto the church. Two other bedrooms are also located on this floor; one is currently a dressing room for the master bedroom. The other, the main guest bedroom is alongside a family bathroom and separate toilet. Separated by a study/play area from the master suite, it can be ‘closed off’ for privacy if desired. The choice of two staircases from this floor that lead you down to the ground floor level add to this ‘separation’ if desired. There are two further double bedrooms located on the second floor alongside a spacious landing area. Again, access can be restricted to one staircase protecting the master suite if desired

Outside the grounds have been beautifully planted and kept by the current owners and do not be surprised to meet the occasional deer visiting from the Common, particularly if you are an early riser. A wide variety of plants and shrubs provide colour and interest the year round alongside an extensive collection of mature plants in pots. There is convenient access to the property from the front on two sides. To the left is the original Victorian entrance via steps to the porched front door; or to the right via the driveway which also provides access to the garage and the kitchen.

Redhill mainline and Earlswood stations are within close proximity providing easy access to London, Guildford, Gatwick and Brighton. There is an excellent local bus service to a range of destinations, plus, the area offers a good selection of highly regarded schools on your doorstep; the closest is St Johns Primary situated only 0.1 miles away but Dunattor, Reigate Grammar, Micklefield, Holmsdale and Reigate Priory are minutes away. Reigate Golf Course is also five minutes away while both Redhill and Reigate town centres offer a wide range of shopping, restaurant, and entertainment options.
