This original Reigate home, built in 1862, is steeped in history. With a striking exterior that showcases traditional Reigate stone, intricate carvings, and tall sash windows. The deep blue front door, framed by an ornate stone porch with a pointed segmental arch, sets the tone for the beautifully preserved original features inside.
Stepping through the traditional hallway, you’ll find two expansive reception rooms that retain their historical character with elegant ceiling cornicing, tall skirtings, and period door details, all harmoniously balanced with modern touches throughout. The large, open plan kitchen and dining room is the heart of the home, flooded with natural light from a skylight above. The modern kitchen design features an expansive island, ideal for family gatherings or entertaining, and bifold doors that open from the dining area onto a raised deck, offering a seamless transition to the well-proportioned garden.
This outdoor space, with views of the neighbouring church, has a strategically positioned seating area, perfect for enjoying sunsets. Generously sized and thoughtfully designed, it provides the perfect outdoor retreat for relaxation and entertaining. Surrounded by mature planting, the garden feels secluded and private. The raised decking area, accessed through bifold doors from the dining room as well as the studio, is an ideal spot for al fresco dining or simply unwinding with a view of the neighbouring church.
The upstairs of the home is equally impressive, featuring four well-proportioned bedrooms, three of which are large doubles bathed in natural light. A charming single room, with an original ornate corner fireplace, is currently set up as a home office. The family bathroom is a spacious sanctuary, complete with a luxurious separate tub, large shower, and stylish his-and-hers sinks.
