6 bed detached house for sale

Waterhouse Lane, Kingswood KT20

Dating back to 1909, Forest Lodge is among the earliest homes built within the sought-after private Kingswood Estate. This striking Edwardian property is full of period charm and distinctive character, thoughtfully finished and furnished to honour its heritage. Throughout, the house reflects and celebrates its Edwardian origins.

Over the last sixty years, the property has been held by just two families and is accessed via a sweeping gravel driveway, offering ample parking.

Surrounded by beautifully private grounds, the gardens encircle the home and include an expansive formal lawn, enhanced by mature trees, established planting, and well-tended borders.

In addition, the property benefits from a self-contained one-bedroom residence known as The Coach House. Extending to almost 800 square feet over two floors, it offers its own private entrance, driveway, and garden, making it ideal for guests, extended family, independent living or even business purposes (subject to planning consents).

Inside the main house, a generous entrance hall leads to three refined reception rooms, each with its own fireplace and direct access to the south-west facing terrace and gardens. The modern kitchen and breakfast area is fitted with integrated appliances and complemented by a separate utility room.

A grand staircase leads to a split-level first floor, where the principal bedroom suite enjoys pleasant views across the gardens. The guest bedrooms are all spacious, featuring built-in storage, while two additional bedrooms, a family bathroom, and a separate WC complete this level.

A second staircase rises to the top floor, where there is a large double bedroom with its own en-suite shower room, along with several sizeable storage areas that offer excellent scope for conversion.

The attractive grounds feature a sun-oriented lawn, well-planted borders, and a charming wisteria-covered balcony that creates a sheltered seating space.

Forest Lodge is ideally situated within easy walking distance of Kingswood village, which offers a variety of shops, eateries, salons, and the well-known Kingswood Arms.

The area is well served by a range of highly regarded state and independent schools. Nearby leisure options include Kingswood Golf Club, Walton Heath Golf Club, and the rac Golf and Country Club on Epsom Downs.

Kingswood station provides direct rail services to London Bridge, while the nearby A217 connects easily to the M25 at Junction 8, giving straightforward access to both Gatwick and Heathrow airports.
