Detached house for sale in Heath Drive, Walton On The Hill, Tadworth KT20

This is a home steeped with history, and today stands in it`s own large private plot of over half an acre ( tbc ) with sweeping lawns, gravel driveway, and tennis court, situated in a sought after private road on the edge of Walton on the Hill village.

I recently saw a picture of this beautiful home, in black and white, taken, I am reliably informed, in the early 1900`s, standing along a short row of similarly sized homes, with seemingly nothing else around it, other than a couple of extremely well dressed people in the street. It transpires that the picture was of the very house we are now privileged to be instructed to sell, and so I am of course delighted to be able to tell you more, as well as provide what I hope is a collection of photographs that reflect the history and character of this beautiful home. Believed to date back to around 1908, this is a home steeped with history, and today stands in it`s own large private plot of over half an acre ( tbc ) with sweeping lawns, gravel driveway, and tennis court, situated in a sought after private road on the edge of Walton on the Hill village and with easy access to Walton Heath. The accommodation of close to 4500 sq ft is spread over three floors, including an impressive entrance hall, a beautiful drawing room of some 30ft in length, 18`x17` dining room, sitting room, fabulous kitchen/breakfast room of 24`x 17`3 with doors out to the garden, utility room, study, and cloakroom, whilst to the first floor are the main bedroom with balcony and en-suite, further bedroom with ensuite, two further bedrooms, bathroom and separate shower room, and then on the top floor are bedrooms 5 and 6. The house is full of the charm and character of it`s era, with high ceilings, open fireplaces, oak staircase, Aga to the kitchen, wooden floors, oak doors, ornate coving and much more besides, whilst combining with modern kitchen, bathrooms and being well presented throughout.
