House For Sale £1,100,000
Village life is the dream for many; though it often comes at the cost of easy access to towns, schools and transport links. Chart lane offers all the benefits of village life, with "outstanding" Reigate parish primary school, parade of Lesbourne village shops and church, all just a short stroll from the centre of Reigate, one of Surreys most desirable Victorian market towns. This handsome Victorian Semi-detached house offers an impressive five bedrooms upstairs, along with a generous garden, and a ground floor primed and ready for extending (Planning application in process).
To those already familiar with Reigates signature Victorian-Semi detached houses, the layout of the ground floor wont be too much of a surprise. The living room is a nicely proportioned space, with a large bay window to the front, sporting plantation shutters, a Victorian cast iron fire-place surround, and a rather handy desk space in the corner, perfect for homework! Following the hallway further into the house, you enter the main dining / kitchen area; a long room, stretching all the way back to the French doors leading into the garden. The kitchen benefits from dark grey shaker style units, paired with black granite worktops, integrated fridge freezer, dishwasher and gas hob. The downstairs toilet is accessed via outside the property. The current owners have simply outgrown their beautiful home, but have still applied for planning permission (pending) to extend the property to the rear, as well as squaring it off to the side, in order to create a stunning open plan kitchen diner, opening up to the garden via bi-folding doors, and re-formatting the ground floor around it.
Upstairs, the first floor consists of the three original bedrooms, and the family bathroom. The largest of these three rooms sits at the front of the property, with three sache windows, and built in storage. Bedroom 3 also has built in storage, and bedroom four is the smallest room in the house, looking over the rear garden. The top floor was converted by the current owners in 2020, and offers breath-taking views over Reigate both front and rear. To the front of the property lays the principle bedroom, a generous room with two Velux windows allowing in floods of natural light, and a full bank of built in storage. Across the landing is the shower room, fully tiled and finished incredibly tastefully. The fifth and final bedroom is currently an incredibly stylish home office, with a triangle window framing the very traditional Reigate skyline, in a particularly contemporary manner.
The property benefits from double glazing throughout, installed by the current owners in 2020.
Outside, the brick laid front drive has parking for two vehicles (elusive, this close to the town centre), flanked by well established hedges. The rear garden is a real selling point; it's particularly long, allowing the owners to create designated areas within it. Patio, lawn, flower beds and an array of out-buildings all feature, with a slightly risen sun trap down the very end, perfect for socialising in the warmer months to come.
As previously mentioned, Chart lane is one of the stand-out roads within Reigate; offering the benefits of village life, all within a few minutes of Reigates thriving town centre. Reigate Parish primary school is less than a 5 minute walk, as is Lesbourne Village high street, with a butchers, wine bar, bakery, fish & chip shop and more. Add a few minutes to your stroll and you're in the town centre, with all that it has to offer. The town provides a comprehensive range of shops and boutiques including amongst others Oliver Bonas, Jo Malone and Mint Velvet. There are also a good number of cafes and coffee shops including Costa and Cafe Nero. Local restaurants include Pizza Express, Bill's, Cote and Wagamama. Reigate Priory Park offers many acres of open parkland and excellent facilities including tennis courts, skate park and The Pavilion cafe.
The town is particularly well served with state and independent schools for all ages. There is good walking and riding in the local countryside, Reigate Heath and The North Downs Way. The area offers a wide range of sporting facilities including active rugby, cricket and tennis clubs. For golfers local courses include Reigate Heath, Reigate Hill, Betchworth Park, Walton Heath and the RAC at Epsom.
