Property Description
What the seller says: "My home has been a haven for me for almost 25 years, witnessing the growth of my family, spanning the lifetimes of my grandchildren, who are all now young adults. Featuring in the '25 Beautiful Homes' magazine and winning the 'Futuristic' award for Wates, the house is truly unique. With high ceilings and big open spaces, the house has been a perfect place for my large family and friends to get together to celebrate numerous occasions over the years, from children's birthdays and milestone events to family Christmas' and Easter Egg hunts. There have been so many happy occasions celebrated here. The capacity for entertainment has been one of the many things we as a family have enjoyed and still do. The atrium never fails to have that wow factor, and even after all this time here, I still delight in watching the sunsets and sunrises, which are quite spectacular from different rooms in the house. Though perfect for entertaining with the open plan light airy spaces, it still possesses a wonderfully warm, homely feel. Whether crowded around the dining table for dinner or sitting alone reading a book in front of the fire, there is a peaceful tranquillity from the hustle and bustle of the outside world. Outside, the landscaped gardens also provide a perfect space for family life and entertaining, with plenty of room for the children to run around and explore, whilst also allowing for more intimate interactions and alone time, especially on those warm summer nights. Conveniently located for Limpsfield Village, Oxted town centre, and Old Oxted, all rich in history, you're never far away from the excellent local amenities, and wonderful restaurants the town is gaining quite a reputation for, but far enough and sheltered in a road which affords a great deal of privacy and quiet, it is difficult for me to leave! It is true Brassey Hill is somewhere that once you are here, it's rare you find someone moves out and therefore the houses are coveted and rarely for sale. To my knowledge, just 4 houses in the last 10 years have been sold, which does demonstrate the popularity of Brassey Hill. Together with their historical and cultural significance, the nearby Oxted, Limpsfield Village and Old Oxted offer a vibrant entertainment scene, leisure activities and everyday conveniences. Described as the "Foodie Capital of Surrey" and a "town alive with entertainment", Oxted doesn't disappoint and caters for all comers." Tucked away on a small, exclusive development, this unique family home offers a rare combination of architectural flair and practical family living. Positioned perfectly for the modern commuter who refuses to compromise on tranquillity, this home is just a short, level walk to Oxted's town centre and mainline station, yet sits on the edge of rolling Surrey countryside and ancient woodland. The property greets you with an elegant frontage and a sweeping horseshoe driveway. On entering, you are met by a breathtaking open-plan reception hall. The heart of the home is an impressive enclosed glass atrium, which floods the ground floor with natural light and creates a sense of immense volume and "through-flow" perfect for hosting family and friends. Designed for the modern professional, the ground floor boasts a large, dedicated office at the front. Across the hall, a formal dining room offers views of the manicured front gardens. For more relaxed evenings, the dual-aspect formal lounge features a traditional open fireplace, offering a cosy retreat that still feels connected to the wider home. The kitchen is a chef's delight, featuring a central island and high-end cabinetry. It flows effortlessly into the dining atrium and lounge, with multiple sets of doors opening onto the rear terrace. The ground floor is completed by a practical utility room and a separate shower room; ideal for cleaning up after a muddy woodland walk. The feature, architectural staircase, leads to a balcony mezzanine overlooking the atrium. On the first floor, the principal suite is a true sanctuary, featuring an extensive bedroom area, a dedicated dressing room with bespoke storage (originally the fifth bedroom) and a luxury ensuite. The private balcony is a peaceful spot for morning coffee with views toward the woodland beyond. Three further generous bedrooms, including a second large suite also benefitting from views, are finished with meticulous attention to detail and climate control for year-round comfort. The rear garden is an extension of the living space. A large alfresco dining area and patio provide the perfect backdrop for summer entertaining, overlooking a level lawn bordered by mature shrubs and trees for total privacy. The original garage has been thoughtfully converted into a second professional office or studio, providing a quiet "destination" workspace away from the main house. Widely regarded as Surrey's premier destination for those seeking the "best of both worlds," Oxted perfectly balances the charm of its Tudor-style high street with high-end modern amenities. It is a highly sought-after commuter town that boasts a selection of fabulous restaurants, boutique shopping and the Everyman Cinema. For families, the location is unbeatable, with top-tier schools including the prestigious Hazelwood School (just around the corner) and Oxted Secondary. For commuters, the M25 (J6) is just minutes away and Oxted Station provides ample parking and swift access to the City, with fast trains reaching London Bridge in 28 minutes and London Victoria in 38 minutes. With a vibrant community feel, Oxted caters to every aspect of modern family life.
