From The Seller - We moved into this house in October 1987, and have spent 35 happy years here. Having generous sized rooms, a large corner plot garden, and the later addition of a loft room with separate shower and WC, we had ample space for our growing family. Banstead Village is friendly and bustling with a wonderful selection of restaurants, coffee shops, Waitrose, Marks & Spencer and Tesco express for food shopping. The village has an active Residents Association and traditions such as the Banstead Village May Fayre, Remembrance Services, etc are always well attended, a real community event. Lady Neville park a few minutes walk away, has a recently refurbished children's playground, with Pistachio's cafe, the bowls and cricket club, are also located in the park.
The village has two well regarded primary schools and at secondary level, we have comprehensive, private and are also in the catchment area for grammar schools. Transport links are excellent, Banstead Station is a 15 minute walk away , and Sutton Station a short bus ride, both have a good service into London .Local buses run a good service to neighbouring areas.
We are lucky to have beautiful surrounding countryside, offering lovely walks and scenery. Banstead is truly a great place to live, we have certainly been very happy here, the fact that we stayed for so many years bears testament to that!
