Summary - 35, SONDES PLACE DRIVE, DORKING RH4 3ED
5 bed 3 bath Detached
Large garden, gated parking and double garage for growing families.
Spacious five-bedroom detached family home, c.1,755 sq ft
Set on almost a quarter-acre plot in sought-after Sondes Place Drive, this substantial detached family house offers flexible accommodation across two storeys. The home includes a large double-aspect lounge, three additional reception rooms, a kitchen/breakfast room, and five bedrooms — two with ensuite facilities — arranged over c.1,755 sq ft of living space. A gated driveway and a detached double garage provide secure parking and storage.
The mature, landscaped gardens and private setting are major selling points, ideal for families who want outdoor space for children and entertaining. Practical upgrades are mostly in place: double glazing fitted after 2002, mains gas boiler with radiator heating, and fast broadband and excellent mobile signal suitable for remote working.
The property dates from the 1950s–60s and offers clear potential to modernise or extend (subject to planning) to suit contemporary tastes. Buyers should note the house would benefit from internal updating to maximise value and improve kerb appeal. Council tax is relatively high, and local crime levels are above average — both important considerations for prospective purchasers.
Located within walking distance of Dorking town centre, mainline stations and well-regarded schools, this home balances commuter convenience with countryside access. It will suit established families seeking space, scope for improvement, and a private garden in a desirable residential setting.
