Burwood Road, Hersham

Every so often, a home simply stops you in your tracks. There’s that unmistakable feeling when you know something is just right. This home had it then, and it still has it now. For over 45 years, it’s been a place of care, creativity, and family life - a much-loved setting for stories quietly built over time.

Lovingly maintained and thoughtfully crafted, this home is as individual as it is welcoming. Every feature speaks of craftsmanship and heart - from the bespoke cabinets, shelving repurposed from a former serving hatch, to the beautifully designed fireplace surround, and the inspired conversion of two simple brick outbuildings into a spacious utility room. Each detail tells its own story, creating a home with a personality as unique as the people who shaped it.

Inside, the layout unfolds with a sense of calm and gentle versatility. At its centre, a warm and inviting reception room opens through double doors onto the garden - its original parquet flooring catching the light, hinting at cosy evenings and lively dinners alike. Toward the back, a second reception enjoys a dual aspect with French doors to the garden and a side window overlooking mature greenery - currently a dining room, but ready to become whatever suits your way of living. It’s a generous, light-filled space that connects through to the utility area.

Then there’s the third reception - a quiet and restful space, anchored by the fully functioning fireplace framed in a lovingly hand-built surround. Whether it’s a winter evening by the fire or a peaceful afternoon with a book, this room invites you to slow down.

The kitchen, galley-style in layout, is practical and filled with character. At one end, a raised dining nook offers a perfect spot for morning coffee or easy weekday meals, while a window at either end - in both the kitchen and the dining nook - frames delightful views of the garden.

Also on the ground floor is a surprisingly spacious shower room - ideal for busy households, guests, or simply for convenience. Upstairs, the family bathroom complements three well-proportioned bedrooms, each with its own charm, along with a fourth room that works beautifully as a study or quiet retreat.

Outside, the setting is both generous and private, with grounds of around a third of an acre. A large frontage gives the home a wonderful sense of arrival, while the mature garden wraps gently around the house - thoughtfully planted and full of seasonal interest. There’s space to play, space to entertain, and space to dream. A detached garage and ample driveway parking provide day-to-day practicality, while - subject to the usual permissions - there’s clear potential to extend and evolve this home further.

Set just over half a mile from Hersham Village, there’s a genuine sense of community here. You’ll find cafés, independent shops, and friendly faces - as well as a wonderful garden centre nearby, ideal for a weekend browse or a relaxed coffee. Walton station is just a mile away, making trips into town wonderfully easy.

Families benefit from a strong choice of independent schools, including Parkside, Haliford, Hoebridge, Notre Dame, and St George’s College. The area also offers a wealth of leisure opportunities, from St George Hill and Burhill Golf Clubs to tennis clubs and health clubs with gym and swimming facilities. For those who travel, Heathrow and Gatwick are within easy reach, providing effortless connections without compromising the tranquillity of village life.

This is a home full of warmth, soul, and promise - and with no onward chain, it’s ready for a new story to begin.
