Tucked away on leafy Wray Common Road, this late‑Victorian Arts & Crafts detached bungalow offers characterful single‑storey living with scope to personalise. The home retains original sash windows, mock‑Tudor detailing and a principal bedroom that opens directly onto the landscaped garden — a reminder of its past as the Mill Lawn lodge. Unlisted status gives freedom to adapt or extend (subject to consents).
Internally the layout is comfortable and straightforward: two bedrooms, a sitting room with a period fireplace, a galley kitchen and a single bathroom across approximately 731 sq ft. The property sits on a generous plot with a stoned driveway and off‑street parking, plus a private, sun‑catching rear garden designed to make the most of daylight — ideal for low‑maintenance outdoor living or pleasant entertaining.
There are practical points to factor in: the house has solid brick walls (likely without cavity insulation), an older heating system of mains gas boiler and radiators, and only one bathroom. Council tax is above average. For buyers wanting a ready‑to‑move‑into, highly finished home, some updating will be needed; for those seeking renovation potential, this is a rare opportunity to retain period character while creating a bespoke, efficient bungalow in a very affluent area.
Location is a strong selling point — walking distance to Reigate and Redhill stations with fast London links, highly regarded local schools, parks and a charming town centre. The combination of privacy, a large plot and scope for improvement will appeal to downsizers wanting a manageable, characterful home close to excellent transport and amenities.
