House For Sale £895,000
Situated opposite open fields on the edge of Chipstead Village, "The Reading Room" is a beautiful Edwardian semi-detached home which the current vendors have lovingly refurbished. The property was originally built in 1903 and initially used as a gentleman's reading room. The current vendors have since re-designed inside and out, creating an exceptionally well finished three bedroom, three bathroom family home with an open-plan interior and a sumptuous feeling throughout.
The ground floor is largely open plan with a custom built kitchen to the rear, a long front to back living area with a feature fireplace and corner bar, a conservatory to the rear and a cloakroom accessed from the entrance hall. On the first floor there are two double bedrooms, both with en-suite bathrooms, while the principal bedroom also contains a large walk in dressing room. The third bedroom is a detached annex with an en-suite bathroom and bi-folding doors to the garden - alternatively it could be a studio/home office.
Externally the house has a striking exterior with off street parking to the front and a private garden to the rear. Situated on Chipstead's High Road the house sits between a red letter box and Old School Mews opposite open fields.
Chipstead is an attractive, historic village lying on the top of the North Downs, just south of London and perfectly situated for access to the M25, the M23, Gatwick Airport, Heathrow Airport, and Central London. Chipstead Station and Cousldon South are the nearest railway stations with direct train services to London within 30 minutes.
Chipstead retains a rural charm with its picturesque duck pond, local pubs and selection of period cottages and converted farms. An active golf course as well as clubs for cricket, football, rugby, bowls, tennis and even a theatre make this a special community. There is a good choice of state / independent schools locally as well as access to larger towns such as Reigate, Banstead, Epsom or Coulsdon.
