The staircase off the front hall leads to a spacious landing off which are a further 4 double bedrooms and two bathrooms.

It is partly bordered with laurel hedges giving privacy with the rear border having a post and rail fence offering stunning views over the neighbouring farmland and up to the North Downs. The rear patio is large enough to get the sun in the mornings, for that cup of tea, and in the evenings for sundowners whilst taking in the views.
The house has some 1,800sf of outbuildings including a massive garage/barn capable of fitting 4 cars with plenty of space left over for bikes, mowers and a workshop.
