Burntwood Lane, Caterham, CR3 6TB

The Beach House

This striking detached split-level residence offers three double bedrooms and two designer bathrooms, artfully balancing the breezy elegance of a Hamptons retreat with the polished edge of a contemporary loft style property. The result is a total sanctuary, defined by understated luxury, refined detailing, and a relaxed, airy atmosphere tailored for the style-conscious buyer.

Meticulously transformed alongside a multi-award-winning architect, every detail of this home has been curated for maximum impact. Newly installed contemporary sash windows and a Crittall-style entrance door immediately sets a sophisticated tone. Inside, Amtico flooring flows through the principal living areas, providing a durable yet timeless foundation. Beyond the aesthetics, the home is engineered for modern comfort, featuring cavity wall insulation and a high-efficiency boiler installed just two years ago.

The location is a true showstopper, offering a rare dual aspect that floods the home with light. To the rear, enjoy far-reaching, cinematic views across Woldingham and the stunning North Doens Countryside while the front provides a serene, open outlooks toward Manor Park.

The principal living area is a sun-drenched masterpiece. Three sets of sliding doors dissolve the boundaries between inside and out, opening onto side and south-facing rear terraces for effortless year-round entertaining. A fitted sun awning provides refined shade during the summer without compromising the spectacular vistas. The room is anchored by a bespoke media wall with integrated lighting; a sleek focal point for evening relaxation.

A standout feature is the impressive open-plan kitchen, living, and dining zone, designed for both intimate family life and entertaining on a grand scale. A commanding four-metre central island with stone work surfaces takes centre stage, complemented by hand-painted cabinetry that blends classic craftsmanship with modern utility. The suite of integrated appliances; including a double oven, American-style fridge freezer, and a bespoke built-in pantry, ensures the space is as practical as it is visually exceptional.

The bedrooms are all about smart design. The principal suite benefiting from extensive wall-to-wall sliding wardrobes that keep the look clean and minimalist. The property is further complemented by two newly fitted bathrooms, both finished to an extraordinary standard. The shower room features Mandarin Stone tiling, a contemporary bowl basin, WC and a walk-in rainfall shower with striking black fittings. The separate bathroom is equally luxurious, comprising a wide vanity unit, freestanding bath and matching black-trim rainfall shower, all beautifully finished with Mandarin Stone tiling.

Contemporary column radiators throughout level up the home's modern aesthetic. For those seeking even more scale, the property offers enormous future potential. A discreet hatch in the lounge leads to a full-size cellar, perfect for a home gym or cinema room, while the expansive loft represents a blank canvas for a high-value conversion (STPP). The opportunities beyond this already exquisite home are plentiful.

The exterior is as functional as it is impressive. A substantial driveway provides parking for up to seven vehicles, alongside an integral multi-car garage with a newly installed electric door. Uniquely, the garage provides internal access to a vast, dry basement spanning the entire ground floor footprint. To the rear, the magnificent 90ft south-facing garden is a secluded haven of level lawn and mature hedging, offering an exquisite sense of tranquillity.

The property benefits from having numerous local and surrounding amenities with a number of mainline railway stations including Caterham which is nearby, excellent schools for all ages, bus services linking Warlingham, Purley and Croydon, shopping facilities at both Caterham, Purley and Croydon with Caterham featuring many of the High Streets most popular brands with free parking at Waitrose. The M25 junction 6 can be found at Godstone and provides access to both the south coast and Gatwick Airport.
