Shellwood Road, Leigh, Reigate, Surrey RH2

A charming converted stable with paddocks, outbuildings and far-reaching views, set in
approximately 2.7 acres ..........

The Old Stables is an intriguing and delightful single-storey attached property, converted from a period farm building formerly part of the Shellwood Manor Estate. Converted by our clients approximately 13 years ago, it occupies a commanding elevated position within grounds of approximately 2.7 acres, enjoying fine far-reaching views towards the North Downs.

The versatile accommodation includes a reception hall, shower room and charming family room with vaulted ceiling, exposed timbers and wood-burning stove. The impressive L-shaped sitting room, measuring a maximum 25'7" x 25'2", particularly reflects the building’s origins with vaulted ceilings, extensive exposed beams and timbers and an attractive central chimney breast with inset wood-burning stove. Patio doors open onto the sun terrace. The adjoining kitchen/dining room is traditionally fitted with quality furniture, central island, granite and oak work surfaces, stone flooring and a feature exposed brick wall. A useful utility room has independent external access. An inner hall provides good separation to the bedroom accommodation, comprising a principal bedroom with built-in wardrobes and dressing room, designed with potential for conversion to an en-suite, together with two further bedrooms and a family bathroom.

The established gardens provide a good degree of privacy and seclusion, with an attractive terrace taking full advantage of the views. Lawns are interspersed with specimen trees, beyond which are two fenced paddocks divided by mature hedging and areas of light woodland. Opposite the property is an L-shaped traditional oak-framed outbuilding comprising a triple open-bay garage, three stables, tack room and feed store/tractor shed, with a games room, work room and stores above. Subject to the usual consents, this offers potential for ancillary accommodation or a variety of other uses. An extensive driveway provides ample parking and turning.
