Smoke Lane, Reigate, Surrey, RH2

AN ELEGANT AND IMPOSING DETACHED EDWARDIAN FAMILY HOME IN A DESIRABLE AND CONVENIENT AREA OF REIGATE

Smoke Lane is a highly desirable and conveniently located cul-de-sac, prized by families for its proximity to Reigate’s town centre amenities, Priory Park and excellent schools in the private and state sector for all ages.

This imposing, six bedroom detached Edwardian property is offered to the market for the first time in three decades, having served wonderfully as a long-standing family residence thanks to its central position and substantial, mature plot. Arranged over three floors and extending to approximately 2,909 sq ft, the property offers well-balanced and versatile accommodation, with considerable potential to reconfigure or extend (subject to the usual consents).

Although the house has evolved over the years to meet the needs of modern family life, many charming period features remain, including high ceilings, fireplaces and exposed wooden floors.

The ground floor provides two elegant reception rooms to the front, the sitting room enjoying a dual aspect, and each with attractive fireplaces. Either side of the kitchen is a dining room and family room with log burning stove, creating superb flexibility for day-to-day living and entertaining. A laundry room/ WC complete this floor.

On the first floor is a principal bedroom with ensuite bathroom and dressing area. Three further bedrooms are served by a family bathroom with bath and separate shower.

The second floor provides two good size bedrooms, generous eaves storage and an ensuite bathroom.

This much-loved home is offered to the market with no onward chain, presenting an excellent opportunity to secure a substantial period property in one of Reigate’s most desirable locations.
