Set behind gated grounds of about 0.42 acres, this imposing detached house offers nearly 4,000 sqft of flexible family accommodation on a private Ashtead estate. The ground floor provides multiple reception rooms, a large kitchen/breakfast area and practical utility/boot room, while the first floor hosts five double bedrooms, three en‑suite and a family bathroom — generous proportions for a growing or multigenerational household.
The plot is a significant asset: mature trees and hedging give good seclusion, a wide gravel driveway and integral twin garage deliver extensive parking, and landscaped lawns with entertaining areas extend the living space outdoors. The property sits within easy walking distance of village shops and the station, and is close to a mix of well‑ranked state and independent schools.
Constructed in the mid‑20th century with double glazing installed post‑2002 and cavity walls, the house presents substantial, well‑proportioned rooms but will suit buyers prepared for ongoing maintenance and selective modernisation to reflect contemporary tastes. Heating is by mains gas boiler and radiators; broadband and mobile signal are excellent, and there is no flood risk.
Practical considerations include a high council tax band and the general costs associated with maintaining a nearly 4,000 sqft family home and large private grounds. For buyers seeking space, privacy and flexible reception areas close to Ashtead village amenities, this property offers a rare, substantial plot in an affluent setting.
