Carters Cottages, Redhill, Surrey, RH1

Well, this is certainly a real gem of a home and has been very much enjoyed by the current owners given the oodles of charm and character throughout. There is a real sense of community at Carters Cottages too, which is sadly a rare find nowadays and just emphasises how a new buyer would feel at ease and comfortable here from day one.
The row of Carters Cottages date back to 1815 and the settlement was in fact known as Little London only changing to the name of St John's when the church was built.
Nowadays the location here is second to none if you want tranquil living but at the same time no end of amenities close-by.
This home in fact has been an absolute dream for the current owners as they literally walk across the road to St Johns Primary School, where their two children attend. This school is highly regarded and hence why so many want to do their absolute best to fall into the catchment for this school.
This particular home enjoys older style traits with a modern style twist within. Initially when you walk in you are greeted by a cosy living room which enjoys a glorious open fireplace. Here is sanctuary for parents who want a relaxing evening without kids in tow.
The back of the house is open plan and works brilliantly as a social/entertaining space. It is also the heart of the house for the current owners whereby the dinner can be made whilst the kids complete their homework at the dinner table. The bathroom is also accessed from this living space and is positioned well for when you are out in the garden in the summer months and need to spend a penny, saving you from having to trapse through half of the house.
Upstairs there are two bedrooms. The main double bedroom is located to the front of the house whilst the second bedroom has an outlook onto the extensive rear garden and the Woodland backdrop beyond.
Outside there is an initial covered area - a great place to still enjoy the outdoors on a rainy day and also provides space and plumbing for a washing machine. As you travel up the garden each tier offers a different purpose. Currently you have an area to sit and relax which is laid to Astro-turf, a middle section where the kids can play no end and the last main tier where there is a variety of fruit and veg crops as well as access to the outbuilding. This additional room provides no end of usage and has been an office, art studio, kids play room and a temporary out me up room when guests have come to stay as there is also a toilet in situ. Beyond this outbuilding you then have direct access via a gate to the common whereby you will no doubt come across no end of wildlife including rabbits and deer.
This is why we feel and have called this home a real gem but don’t just take our word for it contact us so you can book in your own private viewing appointment.
