Description

*NO ONWARD CHAIN* A three-bedroom semi-detached period house dating back to 1867, set within the scenic village of Mickleham, nestled at the base of Box Hill between Dorking and Leatherhead. This residence showcases numerous authentic period elements while also providing generous living spaces and a superb garden. Ideally positioned close to beautiful countryside walks, two local pubs, a café and St Michael's C of E School.

The property offers a new owner the wonderful opportunity to update and even extend STPP. The accommodation starts via a private front door into a hallway that links all ground-floor rooms. The lounge sits at the front and features a fireplace and traditional wooden sash windows. This inviting room offers a warm and relaxing atmosphere with plenty of space for comfortable seating with ample built-in storage. To the rear is the kitchen/diner, enjoying lovely views over the charming garden. The kitchen includes a selection of bespoke fitted base and wall units, ample worktop space and room for freestanding appliances. A brick fireplace and original beams add a striking sense of historic character, while large wooden windows fill both rooms with abundant natural light. Stairs from the kitchen descend to a sizeable cellar with windows, currently used as a utility and storage area, an extremely practical and valuable addition.

Upstairs, a bright and open landing gives access to the bedrooms. The generous principal bedroom sits at the front and comfortably accommodates a king-size bed with room remaining for freestanding furniture. The two further bedrooms are positioned at the rear, overlooking the appealing garden. All bedrooms feel light and uplifting thanks to their substantial original sash windows. A family bathroom with a classic white three-piece suite completes the first-floor layout.

Outside
The property benefits from an area to park one car, located at the top of the rear garden. The enclosed front garden offers gated entry and is screened from the main road by mature hedging and trees, ensuring a good degree of privacy. The rear garden is predominantly lawned, featuring a lovely array of shrubs and planting.

Location
Laurel Cottage enjoys a prime position within the idyllic village of Mickleham, designated as an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and set at the foot of the renowned Box Hill. The village, steeped in over 500 years of history, is known for its welcoming community and includes St Michael and All Angels Church (mentioned in the Domesday Book), two well-loved public houses including the celebrated Running Horses, and excellent educational options such as St Michael's C of E Aided Infant School and Box Hill School, both within easy walking distance. The nearby towns of Dorking and Leatherhead provide extensive shopping, recreational, and educational facilities. A bus passes the property hourly, connecting to both Leatherhead and Dorking railway stations. Box Hill & Westhumble station offers services to London Victoria (approx. 53 minutes) and London Waterloo (approx. 57 minutes), with frequent trains also available from Leatherhead.

About Seymours Estate Agents, Dorking

Cummins House, 62 South Street, Dorking, Surrey, RH4 2HD
Industry affiliations:

Seymours Dorking is headed up by local Directors David Driscoll and Jamie Hynes bringing over 40 years' experience of selling homes throughout the many towns and picturesque villages of the Surrey Hills.

The Dorking office fits perfectly into Seymours' network and neighbours the highly successful Guildford and Cranleigh offices.

At Seymours Dorking we deal with properties of all sizes, from the town centre to the many beautiful surrounding villages. We offer free valuations, help for clients buying and selling property and aim to provide honest advice in all situations, in a friendly, relaxed atmosphere.

David, who has lived in the area for over 40 years, says "We are committed to providing an excellent level of service. Living in Brockham with a young family I know exactly why the Dorking area is such a wonderful place to live and aim to get that across to anyone looking to buy in the area."

Jamie, who has been an estate agent for 20 years said, "What makes us stand out from the crowd first and foremost is customer care and always being available. We both love what we do and have a passion for finding a solution."

The office is stylish and modern and in planning the design we have incorporated a play area for children to enjoy, plus refreshments are on offer at all times with a warm welcome to everyone.

We are proud to say we have raised over £4,500 for Macmillan Cancer Support.

We are extremely excited to announce that we will now be working with The Brigitte Trust to try to raise awareness and as much money as possible for this wonderful charity.
