A charming period family home in need of modernisation with exceptional views
and occupying delightful grounds of 0. 8 of an acre . . . . . .
Fairview is a rare find in a prime Betchworth rural location, having been in
the same family ownership since the 1970s with origins thought to date back to
the 16th Century. The views to the rear are exceptional over open farmland and
towards the North Downs and Box Hill, there is enormous scope to upgrade and
further enlarge the property subject to usual planning consents. The property
retains many period features throughout including exposed timbers, original
doors, stunning fireplaces and feature windows. You arrive through an
attractive stone porch into a reception hall/family room with original tiled
flooring and a wonderfully unique fireplace with seating either side. Turning
right from the hall, you enter into the large sitting room with many original
exposed beams and a further head - turning feature fireplace. The
kitchen/breakfast room is to the rear of the property and has a vaulted
ceiling and array of fitted cupboards plus a large range cooker. There is also
a separate walk - in larder. Also on the ground floor are two further charming
reception rooms – one being the large dining room with central fireplace and
double doors leading to the rear garden and, the other being a spacious study.
To complete the ground floor accommodation is a bathroom and also a separate
boot room with side door access. You proceed upstairs from the dining room
where there are five bedrooms and two bathroom/shower rooms. The main bedroom
is spacious with fitted wardrobes and bedrooms two and three also benefit from
good storage. Outside in the rear garden is a separate workshop of excellent
proportions, which has huge potential to upgrade to a spacious studio/home
office. There is also a double garage (in need of restoration), shed and
children’s stone fort. The approach to Fairview is very appealing, up a long
driveway with lawn either side. The property is set back from the lane and
offers a great deal of privacy and there is the benefit of secondary
independent access.
