This substantial five-bedroom detached home in Melvinshaw offers 2,441 sq ft of adaptable living close to Leatherhead town centre, rail links and highly regarded schools — a practical family location in a very affluent area. The house combines period details (original parquet, bay windows) with later upgrades such as double glazing and two modern en suite shower rooms.
Ground-floor accommodation suits family life and entertaining: a large reception room with woodburning stove opens to a conservatory and south-west facing garden, alongside a dining room, study and fitted kitchen with utility room and rear access. The paved driveway provides off-street parking for several cars and there’s an integral workshop/store and shed for extra storage.
Upstairs are four principal bedrooms plus a further second-floor room that could be a small bedroom or home office with eaves storage. Practical systems include a mains gas boiler with radiators and good broadband and mobile signal. There is no flood risk and the neighbourhood has low crime.
Considerations: the property dates from the 1950s–60s and, while well presented in places, may benefit from cosmetic updating in others. The EPC rating is D and council tax is high — factor potential energy improvements and running costs into your budget. Overall this is a roomy family home with scope to modernise and personalise.
