Detached house for sale in Caterham CR3, 6 Bedroom

Edwardian Family Residence blending character with Contemporary Interior Styling. This Impressive residence of 5,890 Sq. Ft. Stands centrally within private grounds of 1.7 acres.

Fine & Country are delighted to present to the market one of Woldingham's key country houses, built in the Edwardian era (1904) this three storey house provides a unique family residence in a sought after rural village. Standing within green belt the grounds of just under 1.7 acres afford total privacy from neighbouring residences. The house has benefited from extensive renovations and modernisation in recent years and today offers a delightful mix of both contemporary and character features throughout.

The property is situated on a peaceful and desirable road, approached via a long sweeping drive past the former gardener's cottage once belonging to the estate. Set over three floors the ground floor has a series of splendid rooms with the latest Issazini and Modula light fittings from Italy and the highest quality finishes from America including white oak floors and over 70 sq. M of Italian Rosal Limestone. From these rooms you are led to the family kitchen area which creates a breathtaking space with panoramic views from the structural glass architectural extension. The kitchen features a bespoke Boffi kitchen by Alternative Plans and a professional Wolf range cooker and extraction system that wouldn't look out of place in Gordon Ramsey's home. It is a serious kitchen and makes a dramatic social space for those special dinner parties with coloured mood lighting washing a bespoke plaster feature wave wall. At night the vast expanse of glass takes on a life of its own and casts dramatic views of the interior from outside whilst creating a sleek black glass backdrop from within. Seclusion and privacy coupled with making the most of bringing the outside in.

The first floor stretches out as a series of main rooms. The family bathroom with its centrally located original renovated cast iron bath with the free standing Phillipe Starck shower gives views out from the bath into the grounds of the estate. The bedrooms are all large and have been tastefully appointed again with the continuation of designer radiators and Igazzini light fittings. One of the most striking aspects of the house is the wet room which is clad in Chinese slate and has a large drench shower head. It provides the most opulent showering experience one could imagine. The master suite is a nest of luxury enjoying a wonderful aspect with a large en suite wet room with a free standing bath. There is also an excellent walk in wardrobe.

As you reach the third floor via the winding back stairs the house stretches out again as a horizontal series of rooms with a bright and airy feel, on this level there are 3 large bedrooms, currently used as a guest room and gym. A further room would make an ideal cinema room. There is also a bathroom to this level (plumbed but not currently fitted).
