Words from the sellers:

"This has been an incredibly happy family home for over a decade and we have loved living in such a tranquil, tucked-away setting that is at the same time only a short walk away from shops, country walks, and amenities. The house is wonderfully light and airy for a property of this nature because of the double aspect windows; the front garden is also a perfect sun trap all year around, ideal for a morning coffee or an evening glass of wine with friends. We get an instant feeling of warmth and cosiness returning home through our walled front garden and shutting the gate on the world behind us. The picture-postcard Tudor façade with its traditional oak beams and hung tiles also looks absolutely magical in the winter and we have hosted lots of Christmas parties over the years (we can get 15 around the dining table when required!). Horley is a smaller town than neighbouring Reigate and as such has retained its friendly community spirit. We know all our neighbours (something of a rarity in modern times) and the neighbourhood regularly hosts bbqs and street parties for national events such as the Coronation which adds to the sense of warmth and security the property enjoys. We will be very sad to leave but are sure the new owner/s will be as happy as we have been".
