Description

Charlton House lies within a semi-rural area on the edge of Dormansland village and approximately 1.8 miles from Lingfield, both of which provide a range of amenities and day to day shopping. Also nearby is East Grinstead and Oxted for a wider variety of more comprehensive shops.

The property was built in c. 1910 with later additions in the Arts and Crafts style, and provides stylishly presented and well-appointed accommodation arranged over two floors, ideal for both family living and formal entertaining.

The superb reception areas comprise a double aspect sitting room with a feature fireplace, an adjoining dining room also with a fireplace and bay window with an attractive view to the garden, a conservatory with French doors opening to the terrace, and a spacious family room, also with French doors opening to the terrace and a standalone wood burning stove.

The modern kitchen is fitted with a comprehensive range of wall and base units with some integral appliances and a central island unit with an adjoining breakfast area.

A well-appointed study and cloakroom complete the ground floor.

From the elegant reception hall stairs rise to the first floor and impressive principal bedroom suite, which has fitted wardrobes and a stylish en suite shower room with twin basins.

There are four further bedrooms, a well-appointed bathroom with separate W.C and a linen cupboard off the landing completes the accommodation.

Charlton House is approached over a gravel driveway which culminates at the house and detached double garage and provides ample off road parking. The delightful front garden runs along side the driveway and is edged with a variety of specimen trees and hedging.

The impressive garden to the rear is predominantly laid to landscaped lawn with established mixed hedging to the perimeter, providing year round colour and privacy. A paved terrace with brick edging underplanted with a well-stocked flowerbed spans the rear of the property, providing an ideal area for al fresco entertaining. There is an additional decked seating area to the rear of the garden.
