Positioned adjacent to the third green of the prestigious Chipstead Golf Course, this substantial five-bedroom detached residence offers a rare combination of architectural character, expansive living space and a significant self-contained two storey annexe.
Approached via an extensive driveway that leads to a double width garage, the principal residence is entered via a large and welcoming reception hall featuring a guest cloakroom and a fine staircase that rises to a magnificent galleried landing.
The ground floor accommodation is defined by high ceilings and a sense of volume throughout. The principal sitting room enjoys a triple aspect ensuring an abundance of natural light and is centered around an open fireplace. Further formal entertaining space is provided by a separate dining room, also featuring a fireplace, while a charming snug offers a more intimate setting for relaxation.
At the heart of the home is the kitchen/breakfast room, fitted with a traditional Aga and featuring sliding doors that lead directly onto the rear patio. The ground floor is completed by a practical utility room with garden access.
To the first floor the master suite comprises a generous bedroom, a dedicated dressing room and an en-suite bathroom. Four additional bedrooms are served by a well-appointed family bathroom which benefits from underfloor heating. There is also an upgraded boiler and secondary glazing to maintain the property's character while enhancing thermal efficiency.
A particular feature is the extensive two-storey annexe, which offers highly versatile secondary accommodation suitable for multi-generational living or a substantial home office suite. On the ground floor there are two reception rooms, a well equipped kitchen and a conservatory that affords wonderful views of the golf course.
The upper floor houses two bedrooms and a further bathroom. For ease of movement, the annexe includes a "Stiltz" lift, providing seamless access between levels. Furthermore, a spacious cellar is located beneath the annexe, providing excellent storage or potential for further hobby space.
The property is set within secluded gardens that enjoy a favoured westerly aspect. The rear garden has been landscaped to include a "folly" seating area, perfectly positioned to overlook the golf course plus a secret “fairy” garden that remains hidden amongst mature compost shrubs and trees.
Situated in the heart of Chipstead, the property is well placed for families with several highly regarded local schools within the vicinity. The location offers a welcoming balance of rural charm and convenience with transport links providing access to the M25 and towards Central London.
