THREE DOUBLE BEDROOM PERIOD HOME SET OVER FOUR FLOORS – FULL RESTORATION REQUIRED – APPROX. 175FT GARDEN – LOFT ROOM – COUNTRYSIDE VIEWS – NO ONWARD CHAIN

Located in the heart of the picturesque village of Temple Ewell, this substantial three double bedroom period property presents an exceptional opportunity for buyers seeking a full renovation project with huge potential. Set across four spacious floors, this character home boasts generous room proportions, high ceilings, original fireplaces, and an impressive loft room ideal for conversion (STPP), or use as an Office / Study / Workspace. With an approx. 175ft rear garden backing directly onto allotments and rolling countryside, the setting is as peaceful as it is scenic.

 
Property Overview
Entering via the raised front garden, the home opens into a traditional hallway that leads to a large open-plan lounge/dining room, both ripe for reconfiguration and modernisation. The lower-ground level provides access to the kitchen and lean-to, with immense scope to redesign into a stunning open-plan kitchen/living space with doors onto the garden.

The first floor hosts a grand principal bedroom with bay window and superb views, alongside a generous bathroom and additional WC. The second floor offers two further double bedrooms, again featuring excellent ceiling height and natural light. At the top, the loft room and adjoining storage space provide further exciting potential—ideal for a home office, studio or an additional bedroom once fully converted (STPP).

 
External
The standout feature is the approx. 175ft rear garden, bordered by mature hedging and extending towards open allotments. The elevated plot delivers far-reaching views across the Temple Ewell valley and invites endless landscaping possibilities—kitchen garden, studio cabin, terraced seating areas, or a wildflower haven.

 
The Result of a Full Restoration
A sympathetic renovation would transform this once-grand period home into a breathtaking village residence—high ceilings, sash-style windows, feature fireplaces and long garden views combining beautifully with contemporary interiors. Whether you imagine a statement open-plan kitchen, luxurious bedroom suites, or a creative loft retreat, this home is a rare blank canvas with the scale and charm to support a spectacular outcome.
