This semi-detached Victorian home on Holmesdale Road combines period character with thoughtful modern updates. Once home to B. L. Hester’s Sweet Shop in the 1940s, it now offers bright, well-planned spaces designed for contemporary living. The house benefits from a south-facing front, flooding the principal open-plan living areas with natural light and warmth. To the rear, the rooms enjoy a quieter, more private outlook, creating a calm retreat from the street.

The main reception room features elegant herringbone flooring and a striking fireplace with surround, providing a strong focal point and enhancing the home’s Victorian character. Decorative panelling has been used to great effect, highlighting the proportions and period detail of the property. Thoughtful storage solutions include bespoke under-stairs drawers and cupboards along with an additional discreet floor-to-ceiling built-in unit.

The modern kitchen is clean and practical, with direct access to the courtyard.

The courtyard garden is a versatile and low-maintenance space, finished in light porcelain tiles for a crisp, contemporary look. A low- maintenance green wall provides year-round colour and texture, softening the space and improving the outlook from every room. A remote-controlled electric shutter allows the courtyard to convert easily into secure private parking for a large family car, combining convenience with peace of mind.

Upstairs are three well-proportioned bedrooms, all light and welcoming. The principal and second bedrooms both feature fitted wardrobes, while the family bathroom is generously sized with both a separate bath and shower. Natural wool carpets throughout the stairs and bedrooms add warmth, comfort and understated luxury.

The home also offers excellent potential to grow. There is scope to extend into the loft (as the adjoining property has done, subject to planning), and provisional permission has previously been granted for a small side-return extension, offering flexibility for future expansion.

Holmesdale Road is highly regarded for both convenience and community. The current owners have loved having schools, Reigate Station and a favourite local coffee shop right on the doorstep, alongside a welcoming mix of young families and long-established neighbours.

Reigate itself offers a vibrant mix of cafés, independent shops and pubs, with Priory Park and nearby National Trust countryside perfect for weekend walks. Reigate Station at the end of the road provides fast connections to London, Gatwick and surrounding Surrey towns.
