A STRIKING LATE VICTORIAN DETACHED FAMILY HOME IN A SOUGHT-AFTER POSITION, ENJOYING STUNNING VIEWS TOWARDS REIGATE HILL
Occupying a highly sought-after position on Manor Road, this elegant late Victorian residence combines timeless architectural character with a superb location. The property is ideally placed for Reigate’s town centre amenities, mainline station, highly regarded schools, and beautiful countryside walks.
This distinguished detached late Victorian property boasts in excess of 3,500 sq ft of accommodation arranged over three floors. Offered to the market for the first time in several decades, the property has been in the current owners’ family since the 1920s, a testament to the property’s position and charm. Red Garth is a truly wonderful example of this architectural period, featuring high ceilings, attractive fireplaces and arched window detailing. The property sits in a substantial plot extending to just under one acre, and enjoys stunning far-reaching views to the rear towards Reigate Hill.
In its current layout, the ground floor provides three reception rooms plus conservatory, a kitchen and WC, offering the versatility to reconfigure over time if desired. A covered veranda seating area is accessed from the sitting room.
The first floor provides a principal bedroom with ensuite bathroom and three further double bedrooms together with a family bathroom and separate WC.
On the second floor are three further bedrooms, accessed from a landing with vaulted ceiling.
While some modernisation would now be required to suit contemporary family living, Red Garth offers a superb opportunity to create a truly special family home in a much requested location.
OUTSIDE
To the front of the property is a gated driveway, providing parking and turning for several vehicles, together with an area of lawn and established trees and hedging providing a high degree of seclusion.
The rear garden is mainly laid to lawn, bounded by mature hedging and with patio seating areas. A feature wall leads to detached garaging and kitchen garden.
Adjacent to the detached double garage is an attached workshop/ additional store.
Within the grounds is a shed and a summer house.
