A prominently located property in Dorking Town Centre with very significant potential for Development, Refurbishment or a continuation of its existing or similar use.
A Grade II Listed former office building (with later extension) and extensive surface car parking in a prime town centre location. The site offers a GIA of 7601 Sq Ft and total plot size of approx. 0.45 Acres.
Considered suitable (STPP) either as a refurbishment and/or additional development for its existing use (as Offices B1/Class E) or for other alternative uses including residential within Class C3 (including Sheltered or Retirement), Care Home use (Class C2), Medical, Dental or Clinical Use (Class E) or Restaurant (Class E). The property also lends itself to a mixed-planning use either in terms of the buildings themselves and/or a new build element on what is currently the rear car park.
Description
The property comprises three main elements - the original period property; a more recent 2 storey extension (1980s); and an extensive car parking area to the rear with 36 spaces. The original house, arranged across the ground and first floors, is an attractive brick and timber frame dwelling with rendered elevation beneath a pitched tiled roof. Whilst internally displaying somewhat institutional and functional characteristics, some of its more attractive period features remain. The two-storey extension which is interlinked (and can be separately accessed) offers more modern accommodation.
The enclosed car park to the rear provides up to 36 spaces in addition to 2 disabled /priority spaces to the front of the building.
There is mains water, electricity and drainage supplied to the property.
Planning
Purchasers should enquire of Mole Valley District Council. The property was designated a Grade II listing in 1973 before the construction of the modern, rear extension in the 1980s. It is unclear as to whether this more recent extension would be deemed worthy of retention in accordance with the overall listing. The property sits within the Dorking Conservation Area. There are no TPOs on site. Its most recent use was within the Mental Health sector and as a publicly accessible drop in and advice centre.
Tenure
The property is currently held freehold subject to a long leasehold which will be merged to provide the incoming purchaser with the benefit of freehold title with full vacant possession on completion.

Mobile phone signal availability and predicted strength: obtained from Ofcom on November 8, 2024
Mobile signal predictions are provided by the four UK mobile network operators: EE, O2, Three and Vodafone. Predictions can vary significantly from the coverage you may actually experience as a result of local factors (especially terrain). Ofcom has tested the actual coverage provided in various locations around the UK to help ensure that these predictions are reasonable. The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:
Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
Red: One bar, reliable signal unlikely
Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
Green: Three bars, likely to have good coverage and receive a data rate to support basic web services
Enhanced: Full bars, likely to have good coverage indoors and to receive an enhanced data rate to support multimedia services
