A comprehensively improved and thoughtfully extended three-bedroom, semi-detached Edwardian home. Situated in the heart of the highly sought-after village of Chiddingfold, this property enjoys a picturesque location just a stone’s throw from the village green, well-regarded pubs, restaurants, and a range of local amenities.
From the moment you step into Laurels, the quality of finish and careful attention to detail in the current owners’ renovation is immediately apparent. Karndean flooring runs throughout the ground floor, leading first to the spacious, bay-fronted sitting room, where a feature fireplace with a recently installed log burner creates a welcoming focal point. The sitting room flows seamlessly into the dining room, where an exposed brick fireplace adds a touch of period character. Off the hallway, a modern downstairs cloakroom, added during the 2021 extension, provides a practical and stylish addition to the home.
Positioned at the rear and forming the heart of the extension, the kitchen is a beautifully designed space, thoughtfully appointed with a central island, underfloor heating, integrated appliances, induction hob, butler sink, utility cupboard, and larder. Bifold doors open directly onto the pretty garden, while Velux windows above flood the room with natural light.
On the first floor are two well-proportioned double bedrooms and a larger-than-usual family bathroom, which was also upgraded in 2021. The bathroom features a shower over the bath with a waterfall showerhead. The front-facing bedroom enjoys double windows and cleverly designed, full-length fitted wardrobes set into the alcoves of the chimney breast. Ascending to the second floor, the impressive principal suite benefits from a dual aspect, with the rear window offering far-reaching views over the garden and the countryside beyond.
Stepping outside, the landscaped rear garden is a true delight. A patio seating area adjoins the level lawn, enclosed by mature planted borders. Steps lead down the garden to a studio with power, lighting, and Wi-Fi, ideal for home working or as a peaceful retreat for hobbies. An adjoining store provides useful additional space.
There is gated access to an area of land at the rear, extending approximately 15 metres in depth. Although not included in the property’s title, this area is informally enjoyed by several neighbouring households. It has become a cherished communal space, featuring informal play areas, vegetable patches, and footpaths, offering a rare sense of extended outdoor space and a relaxed, community-minded atmosphere. To the front of the home, a gravel driveway provides off-street parking for two vehicles, with a path and gate allowing side access to the garden.
Chiddingfold is a quintessential Surrey village, known for its historic charm, vibrant community, and beautiful countryside setting. At its heart is a traditional village green, surrounded by independent shops, a post office, and popular pubs including The Crown and The Swan. The village offers a strong sense of community, with regular events, a well-regarded primary school, and a village hall hosting a variety of local activities. For commuters, Chiddingfold benefits from nearby mainline stations at Witley and Haslemere, offering direct services to London Waterloo. The surrounding area provides excellent walking, cycling, and riding opportunities within the Surrey Hills Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.
