Standing on the edge of Woldingham’s North Downs, this five-bedroom detached house offers generous family living across three floors with elevated countryside views. The property sits on a third of an acre, with a full-size tennis court, large studio (16ft x 25ft, with power and heating) and mature planting for privacy. High ceilings, original oak flooring and a striking angular bay in the sitting room create strong period character and bright, airy reception rooms.
Accommodation totals about 2,600–2,900 sq ft and includes a wide original staircase, a substantial master suite with ensuite, four further double bedrooms and multiple bathrooms. The layout provides separate reception spaces, a formal dining hall and a kitchen-breakfast room, well suited to family life and entertaining. Integral garage and sizeable driveway offer practical parking and storage.
Buyers should note some running and improvement costs: the EPC is rated E and walls are cavity, as built, with no added insulation assumed — improvements to insulation and energy efficiency are likely to be needed. Council tax is described as very expensive. Overall the house is presented as a substantial, characterful period home with scope for targeted modernisation to reduce running costs and personalise the interior.
This is a desirable village setting close to strong local schooling and countryside amenities. It will appeal to families seeking generous gardens, flexible indoor space and a private plot with recreational facilities already in place.
