4 bed detached house for sale

Holloway Hill, Lyne, Chertsey, Surrey KT16

Dating back to 17th Century and built on land that formally belonged to the Manor of Chertsey, we understand this Grade II listed property was allegedly once the home of Sir Christopher Wren. Today it still offers a wealth of its original character features but seamlessly blends modern family living. From the moment you enter the front door, you are struck by the ornate details this home offers. The bright entrance hall gives access to the accommodation on the ground floor.

The formal reception room extends almost the whole depth of the property and is currently arranged around a central fireplace. This generous sized room is light and bright, and a door connects this space with the gardens beyond.

At the rear of the property is the formal dining room which enjoys views across the lawn. It offers fitted storage and is open to the kitchen/breakfast room. The country style kitchen has a range of fitted storage and an attractive Rayburn stove. This social space offers a further dining/living space, a utility room and side access to the terrace.

Connecting the ground and upper floor is the original stair turret that is oak walled and was the first of its type recognised in Surrey. The principal bedroom is an excellent size and offers views across the grounds. There is a modern family bathroom at the front of the property which has been recently refitted and offers a separate shower and freestanding bath. From the landing are two further bedrooms which both benefit from a dual aspect and the second bedroom with modern end-suite shower room.

Externally there are several areas dedicated to entertaining, a large patio extends from the kitchen and around the side of the property. It gives access to a number of outbuildings which currently consist of a gym and garden store and a separate workshop. At the end of the driveway is the original stable which is currently used as a garage and has a carport attached.

The extensive grounds of the house are simply stunning, with mature shrubs and trees offering a number of shaded areas and walkways around the property. From the driveway is a further lawned area.
