Set on a large plot in central Leatherhead, this 1930s detached family home blends period charm with modern updates. Across three floors you’ll find four double bedrooms, two bathrooms and flexible living spaces including a bright lounge, separate dining room and a contemporary kitchen/breakfast room with island and skylight.
Practical daily living is well catered for: a sizable utility with WC and internal garage access, a large driveway with ample off-street parking and a well-kept rear garden with a modern garden room ideal for a home office, gym or creative studio. Commuters benefit from Leatherhead’s rail links to London and easy access to the M25; several highly regarded state and independent schools are within easy reach.
Notable negatives are factual and important for buyers: the property dates from 1900–1929 and cavity walls are assumed to have no added insulation, so secondary insulation or upgrades may be needed. Council tax is high and the local crime rate is above average, which may concern some purchasers. Double glazing is fitted but the installation date is unknown.
This home suits growing families seeking space, nearby schools and commuter convenience, or buyers wanting a character property with scope to improve energy performance. The layout and garden room provide immediate usability, while the building’s age and insulation status point to future refurbishment potential.
