Set back on a sought-after private road near East Horsley village, this 1930s detached house sits on a notably large, private plot with mature planting and woodland backing. The house retains period character and a generous footprint across two storeys, plus a high-ceiling loft with a dormer — ideal for conversion subject to consent. A standalone studio with power, heating and running water adds flexible workspace or hobby use.
Ground-floor accommodation is versatile: spacious entrance hall, large reception room, conservatory, formal dining room, kitchen, study/bedroom four, utility and a ground-floor WC. Upstairs there are three double bedrooms and a principal bedroom with an extensive dressing room; overall proportions are comfortable, with traditional detailing throughout. The garage, driveway and multiple outbuildings provide abundant storage and parking.
The property requires modernisation throughout and presents clear scope for extension or loft conversion (STPP). Construction is solid brick with assumed lack of cavity insulation; heating is mains gas with a boiler and radiators and double glazing installed post-2002. There is only one main bathroom, and the house will need updating to meet contemporary family living and energy-efficiency expectations.
This home suits families seeking space, privacy and long-term potential in an affluent, village-fringe location. Buyers looking for a turnkey option should be aware of the renovation scope and likely costs; for those prepared to invest, the plot size and layout offer genuine opportunity to create a substantially upgraded family home.
