5 bedroom property for sale

A rare opportunity to acquire a wonderful detached property, designed by the son of the Chown family in the 1950's. Located in one of East Horsleys premier roads, sitting on an elevated south facing plot of nearly 0.75 of an acre and overlooking the village cricket green. This much loved family home has been enlarged over time and now provides just shy of 4,000 sq ft of living space. Thoughtfully designed, all the primary rooms face south over the garden. The front door opens into a large welcoming hall with vaulted ceiling and feature window. The triple aspect sitting room is accessed via the library and has a beautiful fireplace with over arching timber beam and French doors on to the terrace. Central to the house is the formal dining room with views over the garden and beyond to the cricket green. The homely kitchen/breakfast room is wonderfully bright with plenty of space for family living and is well appointed with an island and Aga. Off the kitchen is the playroom and utility beyond. From the playroom there are stairs to the study and the glass feature wall. Upstairs there are five bedrooms, the principal bedroom has fully fitted wardrobes and an ensuite with twin sinks, free standing shower and bath. There are four further bedrooms, one with an ensuite, and a family bathroom. This home offers the buyer a once in a generation opportunity to purchase in Woodland Drive overlooking the cricket green on a south facing plot. This home occupies a super position on a broad plot, set well back off the private road. The carriage driveway passes through the manicured open gardens to the front door and beyond to the Oak framed car port and store. The south side of the property has a stone terrace running the length of the house ideal for summer entertaining with steps leading down onto the expansive lawn where there is an array of borders and beds and mature Oak trees. For kids and cricketers alike, there is a private gate straight onto the green.
