Dome Hill Peak, Caterham, CR3

This individual Arts and Crafts-style home, built circa 1941, sits proudly within a secluded plot of just over half an acre on one of Caterham’s most sought-after private roads. Set well back behind electric gates, the property offers flexible, well-balanced accommodation over a single level, with beautifully tended mature gardens providing a high degree of privacy.
The house has been sensitively refurbished and extended, retaining its original character while offering comfortable, modern living. The entrance hall is wide and welcoming, with solid wood flooring and access to all principal rooms. The triple-aspect living room features a striking inglenook fireplace with multi-fuel burner and enjoys garden views from every angle, with French doors opening directly onto the terrace. At the heart of the home is a spacious kitchen/breakfast room fitted with Shaker-style cabinetry, quartz worktops, integrated AEG appliances, and a boiling water tap. There is space for a family dining table, a walk-in larder, and French doors opening to both side and rear terraces. Italian tiled flooring runs throughout, and a separate utility room and dining area provide additional flexibility. There are three well-proportioned double bedrooms, all accessed off the main hallway. The principal bedroom includes built-in wardrobes, air conditioning, a modern en suite, and a bay window ideal as a study nook or reading spot. A full-height conservatory with bi-folding doors opens onto the garden and makes a superb year-round living space. The two further bedrooms both include fitted wardrobes and are served by a generous family bathroom with a separate shower. This is a unique and well-presented home in an exceptional position. It is private, well-connected, and set within just over half an acre of landscaped gardens backing onto woodland.

Outside: The house sits well within its plot, set back behind electric gates on a quiet private road. The driveway offers parking for several cars and leads to a detached 20 ft garage with an electric roller door. A gated side path winds up through the garden, connecting the front, side, and rear of the property. A useful cellar can be accessed from the side of the house. The gardens, which extend to just over half an acre, have been carefully landscaped and are a real feature of the home. Well-established lawns wrap around the house, bordered by mature planting, colourful shrubs, and a variety of specimen trees. There are several patio areas positioned to follow the sun, offering different options for outdoor dining and entertaining. To the rear, the garden opens up with a woodland backdrop, creating a sense of privacy and calm. A summerhouse sits tucked into one corner, while a detached garden office with air conditioning provides a quiet, insulated space to work from home or use as a gym or hobby room. Everything is well maintained, with the kind of detail that only comes from years of care. It’s a garden that works just as well for entertaining as it does for day-to-day enjoyment, with space, structure, and seclusion in equal measure.

Situation: The property is located on a quiet, private road in one of Caterham’s most sought-after residential areas. Caterham Valley offers a wide range of shopping and everyday amenities, including two supermarkets, a health centre, library, restaurants, and pubs. Caterham railway station offers services to London Bridge (direct) and Victoria in approximately 46 minutes – 54 minutes. The M25 is conveniently accessible at Junction 6, just over two miles away.
