Ashcombe RoadDorking, Surrey, RH4 1LX

An architect designed detached family home dating from the 1930s, set within a particularly attractive and established plot of about 0.4 acres in a highly regarded residential road. The property enjoys a convenient position close to The Ashcombe School and Dorking mainline station, making it ideal for family living and commuting.

The house is approached via a five bar gate and a driveway, providing off street parking for several vehicles. Set well back from the road, the property offers a high degree of privacy. Externally, the house is partially tile hung with a distinctive mansard roof and benefits from double glazed windows throughout.

A porch opens into a generous entrance hall, from which all principal reception rooms are accessed. The sitting room is a particularly impressive space, enjoying a triple aspect with French doors opening directly onto the garden terrace. The room features coving, contemporary laminate flooring and an attractive gas fireplace with a limestone surround, creating an elegant focal point.

The dining room is a light filled room with views over the front garden, retaining original oak flooring and an attractive fireplace. The kitchen enjoys lovely outlooks across the rear garden and is fitted with an extensive range of units complemented by composite work surfaces. There is a gas range cooker, a generously sized larder and a door providing direct access to the garden. A cloakroom and downstairs WC complete the ground floor accommodation.

An attractive staircase leads to a spacious first-floor landing. The principal bedroom enjoys south facing views to the front along with an additional side window. Bedroom two benefits from an en suite bathroom, while bedroom three features built in wardrobes. The fourth bedroom overlooks the garden, and the fifth bedroom, also with built-in wardrobes, is currently used as a study. A well appointed family bathroom and a separate WC serve the remaining bedrooms.

The house offers potential to extend over the garage, subject to securing the necessary planning consents and approvals.
Leading from the sitting room is a generous terrace, perfectly suited for outdoor entertaining and enjoying the surrounding gardens.

The garden is a particular feature of the property. Extending to approximately 0.4 acres, it has been thoughtfully designed and meticulously maintained to provide year round interest. Principally laid to lawn, the garden is framed by well stocked beds and borders filled with a wide variety of perennials, alongside an excellent selection of specimen and fruit trees. A pond attracts a wealth of local wildlife, while the gently sloping upper sections include vegetable beds and areas of natural planting. To the top of the garden sits an attractive timber greenhouse.
