Woodcote Close, Epsom

Often the words “rare” and “gem” are thrown around quite casually when writing property descriptions, but never have they been more fitting than in the context of Apple Tree Cottage, on Woodcote Close.

Set within a highly desirable private road with mature grounds of approximately 0.24 of an acre that enjoy ultimate seclusion due to the Grade II listed walls that border the plot, The Personal Agent are especially proud to present this character detached family home.

The property is believed to have been built in the 1920's and its design was deeply inspired by The Clergy House in Sussex, which is a 600 year old listed home, owned by the National Trust. There are some fascinating character features including beamed ceilings, stained glass windows, chapel doors and an inglenook fireplace, all of which truly set the tone creating the ultimate first impression.

With total accommodation approaching 3300 Sq. Ft, the stylish modern design touches, like recessed ceiling speakers and underfloor heating in the bathrooms, are seamlessly blended with the wealth of character and charm, altogether making this is an extremely rare opportunity indeed. Early viewing is strongly advised to avoid disappointment by vendors' sole agent.

The ground floor accommodation benefits from well proportioned rooms and comprises a large and welcoming reception hall, double aspect living room with its inglenook fireplace and wood panelling, family room, kitchen/breakfast room that links to the conservatory/dining space, generous utility room, boot room and a downstairs cloakroom.

The impressive space continues on the first floor with a principal bedroom that enjoys a spacious ensuite bathroom as well as its view overlooking the mature rear garden, two further generous double bedrooms and a well presented family shower room. On the second floor a great sized fouth bedroom completes our accomodation.

There are very few homes in central Epsom that enjoy a walled plot and a secluded garden like this, although the property also benefits from a detached double garage, gated driveway and even has previously approved planning permission for a separate dwelling too, potentially being of interest for a buyer looking to create an annexe space.

The garden which wraps around the entire home measures 110ft x 100ft and is a particular feature of the property with incredible privacy and seclusion, there are manicured lawns with mature fruit trees and shrub borders, several defined seating areas, an air raid shelter which could be converted into a den, a beautiful nature pond and a fountain which creates a soothing soundscape as a tranquil back drop.

The property sits on a highly desirable private road which is just 0.5 of a mile from Epsom station with its links to the city and just a 3 minute walk from Rosebery Park. The property is also within sought after school catchment areas as well as being within close proximity of the internationally renowned Epsom College and a selection of other great independent schools.
