Summary - LAUNDRY COTTAGE DOWNE ROAD KESTON BR2 6AD
4 bed 2 bath Detached
Spacious family living on a large secluded plot near Keston and Downe.
Secluded southerly rear garden approximately 227 feet long
Set back down a gated drive between Keston and Downe, this substantial Tudor-style detached home sits on a very large, private plot with a secluded southerly rear garden of approximately 227 feet. The layout offers flexible family living: a through sitting room with fireplace links to a generous games/snooker room with double doors to the garden, while a dining/breakfast room, utility and large conservatory create an excellent entertaining hub around the farmhouse-style kitchen.
Practical outbuildings are a major asset — a double garage, extensive front parking and an L-shaped block of three stables (one partly converted) provide scope for home working, a gym, teenagers’ den or small business use subject to permissions. The first floor provides four bedrooms including a double-aspect master with dressing room and en-suite, plus a terrace above the games room.
The house dates from the 1930s–1940s and retains character features such as timber framing and exposed beams, but buyers should note some practical matters: the solid brick walls are assumed uninsulated, the glazing install date is unknown and council tax is described as quite expensive. The property has been in the same ownership since 1987 and presents well for buyers wanting a roomy, private family home with scope to update and customise.
Location balances semi-rural privacy with local convenience — around 2.5–3 miles to nearby shops, restaurants and stations, and a range of well-rated schools within easy reach. Broadband and mobile coverage are reported strong locally, supporting those who need reliable connectivity at home.
