Waterhouse Lane, Kingswood

Enjoying privacy in its beautiful grounds of one and a half acres, an impressive Edwardian house of Arts and Crafts character.

On the edge of the village and just a short walk from the station, an excellent family home with six double bedrooms and an independent annexe.

Designed by the renowned Arts and Crafts architect Paxton Watson and built around 1908, this house is a superb example of its era and it retains many period features throughout. Its grounds too are unspoiled, having lost none of its original one and a half acres.

So designed to ensure that all principal rooms enjoy views over the gardens, the house has substantial family accommodation with timeless character. The central, wood-panelled hall leads to three living rooms and the kitchen is fitted with maple-fronted cabinets and granite surfaces and there are integrated appliances in addition to a white enamelled Aga stove.

On the first floor, there are five double bedrooms each with fitted wardrobes, two have sinks and the principal bedroom has an ensuite bathroom with shower, so too has the family bathroom. There’s a sixth bedroom on the second floor.

There’s plenty of parking for several cars, boat, trailer etc in addition to a large double garage and the studio annexe includes a shower room and may also be used as a gym or excellent office at home. Surely a feature of this fine home are the glorious level gardens which feature a high degree of natural privacy and many places to enjoy the tranquillity.

On the edge of Kingswood Village, the property enjoys natural privacy and seclusion, set back from lane with remote-controlled automatic gates.

Within walking distance, the village offers commuter rail services to London, local shopping and the Kingswood Arms gastro-pub.

For more diverse shopping and supermarkets, Reigate, Epsom and Banstead Village are all within a few minutes' drive and the nearby A217 provides an arterial route to London. Nearby, the M25 motorway at Reigate Hill (J8) gives swift access to Heathrow and Gatwick Airports as well as the coastal ports.

Some of Surrey's finest schools are available locally including Epsom College, Reigate Grammar, City of London Freemans, Dunnotar, Chinthurst and Banstead Prep. Some schools run a private bus service from the area.

High on the Surrey Hills, the area has venues for almost every conceivable sport, leisure and cultural pursuit including Kingswood's two golf clubs and tennis club, the RAC Woodcote Park Golf and Country Club, Epsom Racecourse as well as abundant open countryside for walking, cycling and horse-riding and many pubs, restaurants, local theatre and cinema.
