Longfield Road, Dorking, RH4

A beautifully presented and versatile detached home in a prime spot with The Nower on the doorstep, ideal for walking, cycling and family time. The approach has real kerb appeal, and the interiors are finished to a high standard throughout. The entrance hall has a glazed front door, engineered oak flooring, stairs to the first floor and an understairs cupboard. At the front of the house, a well-proportioned room with fitted storage is currently used as a study but could readily serve as a fourth bedroom, if desired. The ground floor wet room is smart and well appointed with part-tiled walls, walk-in shower, vanity unit with basin, low level WC, towel rail, and a utility cupboard plumbed for a washing machine and dryer. The triple-aspect living room is bright and well proportioned, with a feature multi-fuel stove and three Velux rooflights. To the rear, the kitchen and family room form the hub of the house. A vaulted ceiling opens to the galleried first-floor landing, where a large skylight window brings in natural light and frames a leafy outlook towards The Nower. Full-width bifold doors with integral blinds connect directly to the garden. The kitchen is well fitted with matching wall and base units, granite worktops and splashback, twin sinks with mixer taps, a breakfast bar, built-in dishwasher, larder, and space for a large fridge freezer. An Aga range with six-ring gas hob and electric ovens sits beneath an extractor. Also on the ground floor is a well-proportioned double bedroom with fitted wardrobes and a rear aspect overlooking the garden. Upstairs, the galleried landing leads to two bedrooms and a family bathroom. The principal bedroom has fitted cupboards and eaves storage and is served by an en suite with vanity wash hand basin, low level WC, towel rail and shower cubicle. A second double bedroom faces the front and has eaves storage. The family bathroom includes a vanity unit with basin, low level WC, a bath with shower and a towel rail.

Outside: Set behind a brick wall with a wrought-iron gate and arched trellis, the front garden is laid to lawn and framed by mature hedging, trees and shrubs. A block-paved driveway provides parking for two vehicles and includes an electric car charger, outdoor tap and external power point. The rear garden is mainly laid to lawn with established borders and a good level of privacy. A curved brick staircase leads from the dining area to a raised patio, ideal for outdoor entertaining. There is also a side gate for convenient access. The detached garage is currently arranged as a dedicated home office area with built-in desk, overhead storage, infrared heating, lighting and power. The remaining section provides useful storage space. (Easily converted back to a garage if desired) The Nower is just a stone’s throw away, offering acres of green space, woodland and walking trails.

Situation: Longfield Road is one of Dorking’s most desirable residential roads, known for its mature setting and close proximity to open countryside. The Nower, a protected area of woodland and grassland, is just moments away, offering miles of walking trails, space for children to play, and far-reaching views across the Surrey Hills. Local amenities, including shops, cafés and a Lidl supermarket, are all within easy reach. The property is ideally placed for schools, with Powell Corderoy Primary, The Priory School and Ashcombe School all within easy reach. Dorking West station is around a mile away, with further services from Dorking (Main) and Deepdene stations, approximately 1.9 miles, offering direct routes into London.
