Bentsbrook Park, Dorking, RH5

This attractive 1940s home has been thoughtfully extended over the years to provide bright, spacious, and versatile accommodation arranged over two floors. The current layout offers flexibility for family living, and there is clear potential to personalise or further enlarge the property, subject to the usual consents. The accommodation begins with a generous L-shaped entrance hall, leading to a cloakroom and a formal dining room that enjoys a pleasant outlook over the rear garden. The sitting room is full of character, with a fireplace housing a gas fire / stove, and opens into a conservatory that draws in plenty of natural light. The country-style kitchen is fitted with a range of wall and base units, a tiled splashback, and a sink with mixer tap, along with a breakfast area for casual dining. There’s an oven with hob and extractor, space and plumbing for a dishwasher, and a serving hatch through to the dining room. The kitchen opens into a spacious utility room, which offers additional storage with matching wall and base units, a one and a half bowl sink with mixer tap, space and plumbing for both a washing machine and separate dryer, as well as room for freestanding fridges. A side door provides access to the garden. Just off the kitchen, a ground floor extension forms a flexible bedroom suite, originally designed as a space-saving granny annexe. It worked exceptionally well for the owner's mother, who lived there for some time. The room includes fitted wardrobes with an integrated, purpose-built double Murphy bed, which folds down easily when required and will remain in place. A skylight and French doors provide plenty of natural light and a lovely outlook over the garden. The suite also benefits from a well-appointed en-suite shower room with low-level W.C., vanity unit, and wash hand basin. Upstairs, a further extension has created a particularly spacious principal suite, which includes a large dressing room and generous en-suite bathroom. There are two additional double bedrooms and a modern, fully tiled family bathroom with a bath, wash hand basin, and wet room-style shower.

Outside: The property is set back behind an attractive in-and-out brick-paved driveway, framed by brick pillars and offering generous parking. It leads to an integral garage, with side gates giving access to the garden. The level rear garden is beautifully landscaped and enjoys a high degree of seclusion, with one side enclosed by a brick wall and the other by fencing. Well-stocked beds provide year-round colour and structure. From the conservatory, double doors open onto a raised sun terrace with balustrade, with steps down to a flagstone patio and hot tub area—ideal for entertaining or relaxing. Bents Brook runs through the garden, crossed by a small bridge that leads to a further lawn with a seating area, summerhouse, and garden shed. In all, the grounds extend to 0.36 acres (0.15 Ha) and create a wonderful outdoor setting.

Garage: Accessed via the side passage, the garage is a generous single, featuring an up-and-over door, power, lighting, and a window overlooking the garden.
