Saxbys Lane, Lingfield

It is difficult not to fall in love with this cleverly extended family home, located on one of Lingfield’s premier roads, within a short walk of the village centre and mainline railway station. We believe that it will appeal to families looking for well balanced accommodation with a wow factor! It is perfect for commuters and local schools.

The front door opens into a useful entrance hall which has a window to the side and loads of storage for coats and shoes. A good sized hallway with a cloakroom to the side gives access to the ground floor accommodation. The double aspect sitting room sits at the front of the property and benefits from an open fireplace which provides a great focal point for the room. A great sized family room sits behind with a back to back fireplace. This room is ideal for a children’s playroom or a simply an additional room for relaxing and has double glazed doors leading to the garden.

The recently added kitchen/dining room is certainly the hub of this family home and adds a rear wow factor to the ground floor. Although the kitchen is beautifully finished, as soon as you enter your eyes are drawn to the garden which feels like part of the room due to the bi-fold doors stretching its width. It benefits from a range of high gloss base and eye level units with granite worksurfaces providing plenty of preparation space. There is a central island which incorporates an integrated dishwasher, storage space and a sink. A NEFF double oven, separate fridge and freezer, washing machine and tumble dryer are also integrated. There is space for a good sized dining table and chairs. This is the perfect room for entertaining or enjoying time with the family.

On the first floor, a light and airy landing provides access to the loft and bedrooms. It is the master bedroom suite that steals the show. The bedroom is double height with huge double glazed doors and windows overlooking the garden. There are built-in wardrobes and a recently fitted ensuite shower room. There are three further good sized bedrooms and a spacious family bathroom.

Outside, to the front there is a driveway providing parking and turning for a number of vehicles leading to a garage with an area of lawn to the side. The fully enclosed rear garden is a fantastic size and benefits from a sunny, westerly aspect. It comprises patio seating area giving over to an expanse of lawn with two storage sheds, summer house/bar and raised vegetable garden at the rear with decked seating area and patio to the side.

LOCATION There are plenty of facilities on offer to local residents. The village is served by two excellent coffee shops. The more nationally recognised Costa Coffee and the smaller, independent Rosies is popular with local families with young children.
