Occupying a plot of circa 2.4 acres this substantial Edwardian property is incredibly private and gives fantastic views to the South.

Situated in a spectacular position and enjoying lovely views across the valley, this Arts and Crafts style house dates back to circa 1904 and has an abundance of period features. Whilst the property requires some modernisation it presents well and retains the oak framed leaded light windows, timber-latched or part glazed doors and fireplaces of varying styles. Steephurst is a substantial family home with huge potential, in one of the areas most sought-after locations, close to Caterham School. Exteriors of red brick and painted render under a tall, pitched tiled roof it is a very attractive house with the internal accommodation laid out over two floors together with a large, boarded loft giving the possibility for conversion subject to planning. The principal rooms are positioned to take full advantage of the southerly aspect to the rear, therefore benefiting from an abundance of natural light and magnificent views over the gardens and beyond. The three reception rooms are gracious, yet full of character and the kitchen/breakfast room comprehensively furnished with fitted floor units finished with granite worktops. The views become even better at first floor level where there are five bedrooms, serviced by four bath/shower rooms, one of which is en-suite to the principal bedroom.
