In any property agency career, there are always a handful of houses that stick in your mind and hold special memories; seldom do we get the opportunity to sell those houses twice. But with this stunning 1930s detached home, set on Epsom Downs, this is exactly what we’re doing.

When we sold the house to the current owners some 15 years ago, it was a hidden gem waiting to be discovered, revitalised, and loved once again.

The almost 4,800 sq ft includes a large kitchen, three reception areas, two studies, five bedrooms, three bathrooms, a potential annex and even the opportunity to extend into the roof.
