Vendor Thoughts - We have lived in Smithy Lane for the last 30 years, and have loved living here, the neighbourhood is very friendly. Unfortunately, due to ill health we are having to consider a new home without stairs. Our cottage has been extended over the years, and the last major one was in 2000 when we carried out a side extension making it into a 3 bed, 2 bath and a cloakroom home. There may be an opportunity to carry out a loft extension as the roof was raised by two feet, subject to planning consents etc. We also made some useful added improvements such as it now has its own water supply with two stopcocks, one bathroom shower fed from the combi boiler and the other with a power shower. Electricity is split to isolate extension from the main house.

We are hoping to find someone who wants to put their own stamp on it and make it their own.

The village is close to Reigate, Banstead, Epsom and Colley Hill. Yet we are convenient for the M25. Local shops, doctors and hospitals are not far away with a regular bus route and train stations.
