2 bed Flat For Sale £400,000
A beautifully presented, unique two bedroom apartment offering over 1315 sq ft of bright, exceptionally spacious accommodation with picturesque far-reaching views, a delightful garden and detached garage. Glenwood is a peaceful private cul-de-sac backing onto Glory Woods, just moments away from everything Dorking has to offer including the high street, mainline stations and stunning open countryside.
The Penthouse forms part of Glenwood House, a former Victorian mansion dating back to 1895 offering a wealth of history with many original period and character features. A private front door opens through into the entrance hallway with stairs curling up to the top floor landing which in turn provides access to all the accommodation. The impressive 24'1 ft open plan reception room has been designed to be the heart of the home enjoying spectacular Southerly views across stunning open countryside and further benefits from a working fireplace creating a warm cosy ambience. This is a lovely bright space with plenty of natural light flowing through the large bay window offering the ideal entertaining space. As you can see from the measurements, bedroom one is a very generous 15'1 ft with plenty of space for several large wardrobes. Bedroom two is another excellent double benefiting from a balcony overlooking gardens and enjoying far-reaching views. Across the hall is the galley kitchen fitted with a selection of floor to ceiling units complemented by ample work surface space, integrated oven and room for all the expected appliances. Completing the accommodation is the bathroom fitted with a modern white suite and attractive panelling. In addition, there is a cleverly hidden utility area providing plenty of space for washing appliances and several large storage cupboards.
