Driving through the automatic gates and up the sweeping driveway, you are instantly impressed by this incredible Arts & Crafts style home and the stunning setting it is situated in. Offering the perfect mix of a character home, but with contemporary finishes to create a forever home worthy of featuring in any interior design magazine.

The ground floor offers so much versatility for any buyer with a spacious entrance hall that is a room in itself, as well as a further three reception rooms, all with beautiful feature fireplaces and a generous glass garden room that is currently used as a home office/design studio with marble floor and shutters to give it that homely feel. The downstairs cloakroom has a modern Italian feel and there is a sizable laundry room with Shaker style kitchen units fitted which leads into the main feature of the downstairs which is the incredible kitchen/diner with a frameless glass atrium. Designed to give a sense of an open-air space indoors, this room is something to behold when looking out across the valley. There is also a beautifully sculptured ornamental plaster 'Wave Wall' featuring colourful mood lights to give it a contemporary edge and great talking point when entertaining guests.

Back to the entrance hall and up the stairs to the first floor are four double bedrooms and three bathrooms, with the Master Suite being just what you would expect from a home like this.

This grand space is 23ft long with an original wrought iron fireplace and plantation shutters. An open arch leads through to a luxury en-suite/wet room, a Victorian roll-top bath, his and her vanity basins, walkthrough waterfall shower. A second arch then leads through to the modular walnut dressing room.

The second floor is accessed via the rear staircase and is an extremely versatile space. Made up of three rooms, the smaller is currently being used as a home gymnasium. The larger room could be used as a cinema room/playroom or additional bedroom. A galleried landing leads to a further guest bedroom and a bath/shower room which is in an unfinished project currently. There is also a basement which is accessed via the same staircase and could be a fantastic space for a wine cellar or as just additional storage.

Outside the kitchen is hardwood decking giving the perfect space for al fresco dining and evening entertaining with hot tub. From here are steps leading up to the outdoor heated swimming pool and there is the bonus of a pool house/changing room. The remainder of the two-acres of grounds are mainly laid to lawn, but there is more than enough parking for family and guests.

Location Guide

Nestled within the North Downs between Oxted and Warlingham lies the quintessential village of Woldingham. The unique character of the village, the surrounding green belt, and the high-end residents make this a very sought-after place to call home. On a nice day, you can stroll to “The Crescent” to pick up your fruit & veg, or if it's raining then jump to Waitrose down the road! There’s also a large recreation ground with tennis courts for a friendly tournament, and Woldingham Golf Club and North Downs Golf Club for something a bit more serious.

If all the green gets a bit much then head to Reigate or Oxted for some retail therapy or head for Woldingham Station where you can be whizzing into London Bridge and London Victoria - there are three trains every hour during peak times and now the Thameslink stops at Woldingham too. The M25 is easily accessible and Gatwick is within half an hour making a last-minute getaway a breeze.

The education options are fabulous - there are great independent - Woldingham School, in particular, is a wonderful school for 11–18-year-old girls, and state schools close by, especially the very sought after Woodlea Primary school.
