Coldharbour, Dorking, Surrey, RH5

Mountfield is set in an elevated position, within a generous plot of 2.3 acres, in a peaceful setting with stunning views. The property has been beautifully maintained by our clients but offers the incoming purchaser a wonderful opportunity to upgrade and extend (subject to planning) further, to create a spectacular family home.

Mountfield is spread over three floors and enjoys tall ceiling heights and excellent room proportions throughout. On the ground floor, you enter via a spacious entrance hall, from which all reception rooms, as well as the kitchen, are accessed. The dining room and sitting room both enjoy views of the stunning rear gardens, and both have double doors leading to them. The drawing room is a large space with a central fireplace. The kitchen is well-equipped and leads to a more informal dining area, while at the rear of the kitchen is a utility room with external access and a shower room.

The first floor comprises a principal bedroom with an en suite bathroom and dressing room, along with a large bay window offering views of the garden and beyond. This floor also features three further double bedrooms, one with an en suite, and a family bathroom. There is also a large roof terrace. The second floor has two additional good-sized double bedrooms, both of which enjoy beautiful views.

Mountfield is set amidst the most breathtaking, meticulously landscaped gardens, offering a stunning display throughout every season. A gravel drive provides ample parking space and leads to a spacious double garage, with steps gracefully descending to the front door. In a secluded corner of the garden, close to the house, lies a swimming pool, while at the far end of the garden, a sunken tennis court is framed by the vibrant hues of surrounding heather. The garden offers exceptional privacy, with expanses of well-maintained lawn complemented by two serene ponds, connected by a quaint bridge. An impressive variety of mature trees, plants, shrubs, and flowers thrive throughout the garden, creating a truly enchanting and harmonious outdoor retreat.
