5 bed semi-detached house for sale

Cockshot Road, Reigate RH2

This exquisite Victorian semi-detached home is a masterclass in blending period grandeur with contemporary design. Behind its charming yellow brick facade, this home unfolds into a thoughtfully extended and beautifully curated space that is as functional as it is stylish.

From the moment you enter, light and space define the experience. The elegant hallway, bathed in natural light from traditional sidelight and fanlight windows, sets the tone for the home’s perfect balance between period charm and modern finesse.

To the front, the grand reception room is a showcase of Victorian craftsmanship - soaring ceilings, an ornately carved fireplace, a deep bay window with bespoke shutters and a window seat, and exquisite bespoke cabinetry. The refined coving and tall skirtings enhance the sense of grandeur, making this space a truly inviting retreat.

The rear of the property has been masterfully extended to create a striking kitchen and living space that celebrates modern design while maintaining a connection to the home’s heritage. The kitchen is a vision of symmetry, with oak and white gloss units, chrome hardware, and a striking monochrome hexagonal tile. A central island, complete with breakfast bar, reeded panelling, and bookshelves, serves as both a practical and social focal point.

Underfoot, polished concrete floors reflect the abundant natural light streaming in from the skylights, framed in sleek black to complement the black-framed multi-light bifold doors. These doors dissolve the boundary between inside and out, leading onto a raised decking area that seamlessly extends the living space into the beautifully landscaped garden. A contemporary garden room, currently serving as a gym and office, offers versatile additional living space alongside a separate store.

The central staircase winds upwards through the home, carrying the sense of elegance to the first floor. Here, three double bedrooms benefit from tall ceilings and retained character features. The principal bedroom at the front is a generous and serene retreat, complete with built-in wardrobes and an ornate Victorian fireplace. The family bathroom is a stylish sanctuary, with a bath, walk-in shower, distinctive tiling, and rich green tones that add depth and warmth.

Ascending further, the second-floor landing is a design statement in itself, with an exposed brick feature wall adding texture and a skylight flooding the space with light. This level is home to a further double bedroom, offering breathtaking views over Reigate Hill, as well as a modern shower room and a fifth bedroom, currently ideal as a study or guest room.
