A charming and characterful detached period home positioned on a private drive in the heart of highly regarded North Reigate, offering a secluded setting with generous off street parking.
Pentlands Cottage is an attractive, characterful detached home, originally constructed in 1910 and lovingly maintained as a family residence for over 18 years. Tucked away along a private drive just off Gatton Road in the highly regarded North Reigate area, the property enjoys a secluded setting and generous off street parking for multiple vehicles.
The property is approached via an entrance porch, featuring a leaded light front door and tiled flooring, which opens into a particularly spacious and welcoming hallway. The ground floor accommodation is enhanced by elegant cornicing throughout.
Double doors from the hallway lead into an exceptional open plan family and dining room, beautifully designed for modern living and entertaining. This impressive dual aspect space is flooded with natural light from large windows overlooking the delightful rear garden, while slimline Cortizo sliding doors provide a seamless connection to the outdoors.
The kitchen, accessed from the family room, is a standout feature with its vaulted ceiling and garden views. Well appointed with an extensive range of oak painted cabinetry topped with granite work surfaces, it also benefits from a central island with secondary sink, ideal for keen cooks. A rooflight above the breakfast area enhances the sense of space and light. The kitchen is equipped with a classic blue gas fired Aga, complemented by a separate gas cooker and oven for additional flexibility. A separate boiler/utility room adds further practicality.
The sitting room offers an excellent flow between the hallway and family room and features a double aspect together with a charming wood burning stove, creating a cosy yet light-filled space.
Further ground floor accommodation includes bedroom five, which is served by a nearby shower room and offers versatility for use as guest accommodation, a study or an additional reception room.
A turning staircase with a striking stained glass window on the half landing leads to the first floor. The principal bedroom suite overlooks the rear garden and benefits from a generous dressing room and a well appointed contemporary en suite shower room. Bedroom four also enjoys its own en suite, while two further bedrooms are served by a stylish family bathroom.
Outside, the gardens are a particular feature, being mainly laid to lawn and bordered by a variety of mature trees and shrubs, including an attractive Acer. A terrace runs along the rear of the house, providing an ideal setting for outdoor dining and entertaining, while a useful garden shed is discreetly positioned within the grounds.
Pentlands Cottage presents a rare opportunity to acquire a charming period home, thoughtfully adapted for modern family living, in a highly desirable and private setting close to Reigate town centre and its amenities.
