Holmes Cottage was originally built in the 1890's forming part of the Betchworth Lodge Estate. As soon as you step through the front door you enter into the useful porch where you are met with the warm, welcoming feel this home offers further providing useful storage for coats and shoes as well as the stylish downstairs cloakroom. Leading through into the additional hallway which provides access to all the ground floor accommodation, stairs to the first floor and very useful under stairs utility space cleverly designed by the current owners. The spacious front aspect sitting room is an excellent 15'5 x 12'2 ft offering plenty of space for a large suite benefiting from a charming brick exposed fireplace with wood burning stove creating a lovely, cosy ambience. Next is the impressive open plan kitchen/diner which has been designed to be the heart of the home and is a lovely bright, airy space thanks to the beautiful bi-folding doors which fully open providing the ideal place for entertaining with family and friends. The handmade kitchen itself has recently been refurbished to a very high standard offering a full range of modern floor to ceiling units complemented by quartz worktops with stylish under unit lighting, Belfast sink, all the expected integrated NEFF appliances including a large fridge/freezer and dishwasher as well as a breakfast bar. Finishing off the ground floor is the fourth bedroom which is a generous single that could alternatively be used as a home office, children's playroom or an additional family room if desired.
From the hallway, stairs rise up to the spacious first floor landing benefiting from delightful built in oak shelving and sash window.

Stairs rise again from the first-floor landing, curling up to the second floor where bedroom three can be found.

This is an ideal space for a teenager to have their own floor or alternatively a guest bedroom if desired. Access to the utility room and eves are also accessed from this room with automatic lighting.
