4 bed detached house for sale

Reigate Road, Hookwood, Horley RH6

Tucked away in a wonderfully discreet setting in Hookwood, this remarkable Grade II listed home offers a rare opportunity to own a property of genuine historical interest. Dating back to the 16th century and offering over 2,600 sq ft of accommodation, the property is rich in period character while thoughtfully combining its heritage with the comforts of modern family living.

From exposed wooden beams and original stone flooring to impressive fireplaces and beautiful oak and parquet floors, character can be found throughout. Despite its age, the home enjoys wonderfully generous room proportions, high ceilings and an abundance of natural light, creating a bright and welcoming feel across both floors.

The entrance reception immediately sets the tone, with original stone flooring and a magnificent inglenook fireplace providing an impressive reminder of the property's history. From here, the accommodation flows into a collection of four versatile reception spaces, providing plenty of room for family life, entertaining and working from home.

A particular highlight is the stunning triple-aspect living room, where an abundance of natural light complements the oak flooring and feature fireplace. The separate study is equally characterful, finished with beautiful herringbone parquet flooring and providing an ideal space for home working or quiet relaxation.

At the heart of the home is the generous kitchen/breakfast room, combining traditional charm with everyday practicality. Granite worktops provide ample preparation space alongside a range cooker, integrated appliances and useful pantry storage, with plenty of room for informal family dining. A downstairs shower/utility room completes the ground-floor accommodation.

Upstairs, a spacious open landing leads to four well-proportioned bedrooms and a large family bathroom. Feature fireplaces continue onto the upper floor, with five found throughout the property in total, further enhancing the home's period appeal. Dual loft spaces provide additional storage.

The outside space is every bit as special as the house itself. Set within private grounds, the property is approached via a driveway leading to a substantial parking area and an extensive lawn positioned in front of the home. The gardens continue around the rear before opening into a beautiful gated courtyard, enclosed by a characterful brick boundary wall. An Indian sandstone patio provides a wonderful setting for outdoor dining and entertaining, while an ancient fig tree and dedicated vegetable garden add to the charm and individuality of the grounds.

Situated in Hookwood, close to the villages of Charlwood and Norwood Hill and within reach of Reigate and Horley, the property combines its peaceful setting with convenient access to local amenities and transport connections. Gatwick Airport is approximately 10 minutes away, while Horley mainline railway station provides services towards London and the south coast.

With over 2,600 sq ft of versatile accommodation, four bedrooms, four reception spaces, extensive private gardens and a wealth of original period features, this is a truly distinctive family home where centuries of history sit beautifully alongside modern-day living.
