What Happens When Location And Layout Align? Quiet and leafy yet only 10 minutes' walk from the station (30 minutes direct to London Victoria). Fully renovated & reconfigured for modern family life - with a superb rear extension, landscaped gardens and a summerhouse.

When the road is this quiet and schools and the station are just a short walk away, your day can begin calmly, on the right foot...and perhaps a little later!

And when you add a transformative rear extension and a thoughtful reconfiguration, this immaculate detached house can now support modern family life from morning to night.

Downsway is one of those quiet no-through roads where traffic tends to belong to the people who live there. It feels settled and established, with mature greenery out front softening the street scene.

Parking can be limited, so having your own private parking area at the front removes that daily uncertainty. You arrive home and you’re straight in.

Inside, the living room sits at the front of the house. It’s a cosy, separate space that works well for film nights, a quiet read or simply closing the door to chill out for an hour.

There’s a stylish new shower room with WC, just off the hall. It’s ideal for guests, freshening up after a parkrun on the Common or taking the pressure off busy mornings.

The real shift, though, happens at the back of the house.

The substantial rear extension has created an impressive kitchen-diner space that becomes the social hub of the home. Fitted units, quartz worktops and a central island give you proper preparation space, plenty of storage and somewhere for the children to perch with homework while dinner’s on.

Bi-fold doors open directly onto the new composite decking, so the garden feels like a natural extension of the room itself. On warmer days, it’s easy to slide the doors back and let everyone spill outside.

The garden has been landscaped with a mix of decking and lawn, giving you defined areas to sit, eat and play.

At the rear, the summerhouse adds an extra layer of flexibility. It has its own large patio seating area and is currently set up as a games room, but it could just as easily become a home office, studio or a place for teenagers to claim as their own.

Heading back inside, there are now four bedrooms on the first floor.

Two are comfortable doubles, each with their own stylish en-suite (one with a bathroom and the other with a shower room).

The two smaller bedrooms are ideal as children’s rooms, a nursery or a dedicated study if needed.

For commuters, Whyteleafe & Upper Warlingham station is less than a 10 minute walk away, with direct Southern & Thameslink trains reaching London Bridge & London Victoria in around 30-45 minutes.

You’ll pass Tesco Express and M&S Food To Go on the short walk home from the station, with a choice of local shops and places to grab something to eat along Goldstone Road.

Whyteleafe School is just beyond the station, while Riddlesdown Collegiate for older kids is roughly a 10 minute bike ride away.

Riddlesdown Common is also within easy walking distance, offering open space whenever you need fresh air or a Saturday morning run.

If you’ve been looking for a stylish and spacious family home that genuinely balances a peaceful setting and modern practicality, 19 Downsway deserves your attention.
