Set on a substantial 0.24-acre plot in a quiet side road of Claygate, this detached character home offers generous family living across four principal reception rooms and six bedrooms. The property blends period Tudor-Revival charm—bay windows, fireplaces and a traditional staircase—with a large kitchen/breakfast/family room opening to a mature, deeply planted rear garden extending in excess of 160 feet. Off-street parking for two vehicles and a newer detached garage provide useful storage and parking space.
The house totals approximately 2,578 sq ft and has been extended beyond its original footprint, delivering flexible room layouts for family life, home working or guest accommodation. Practical features include a utility room, cloakroom/WC and two modern bath/shower rooms. Fast broadband and excellent mobile signal suit today's connected household, while the site’s proximity to the village centre, station and several well-regarded schools makes it a strong family location.
Buyers should note the property's age (circa 1900–1929) and traditional solid-brick construction; there is assumed lack of wall insulation and the double-glazing install date is unknown. With only two bathrooms for six bedrooms and a large plot, there is clear scope for updating, reconfiguration or modest extension (subject to planning) to suit a growing family. Council tax is described as quite expensive, reflecting the area and property size.
Overall this is a substantial period family house on a large plot in a very affluent area. It will appeal to buyers seeking character, generous outdoor space and proximity to village amenities, but those prioritising fully modern fabric and insulation should factor in potential refurbishment work.
