A rare opportunity to acquire a distinguished Surrey residence of exceptional elegance with contemporary sophistication.
Property Profile
Extending to over 3,500 sq ft and arranged across two floors, this impressive residence has been designed with both refined entertaining and luxurious everyday living in mind. With scope to further enhance the accommodation by converting the loft (already supplied with power and lighting/subject to planning), the property offers flexibility as well as grandeur.
The approach to Monks Croft is nothing short of remarkable. A sweeping carriage driveway leads to the house, while the grand reception hall with its bespoke staircase creates an immediate sense of prestige, framing views through to the beautifully landscaped gardens beyond.
At the heart of the home lies a spectacular bespoke kitchen, crafted to the highest standards. A large marbletopped island with breakfast bar anchors the space, complemented by top-of-the-range AEG appliances, including twin double ovens. Expansive bi-folding doors flood the room with light and create a seamless transition to the terrace and gardens - an idyllic setting for sophisticated entertaining or relaxed family gatherings. A separate utility room provides further practicality, with access to the integral double garage.
The principal reception rooms are equally impressive. The family room, with dual sets of French doors, opens directly onto the gardens, while the formal sitting room offers a refined retreat for more intimate occasions. A private study and elegant guest cloakroom complete the ground floor accommodation.
Upstairs, the principal suite is a sanctuary of style, featuring a vaulted ceiling, bespoke fitted wardrobes, and a luxurious en-suite bathroom. Four additional bedrooms, one with its own en-suite, provide ample and flexible accommodation for family and guests, alongside a beautifully appointed family bathroom complete with a stone bath. The loft, accessed by staircase, offers exciting potential for further development.
The home is finished with meticulous attention to detail throughout, including Italian porcelain floor tiles, underfloor heating across the ground floor and bathrooms, and integrated Cat6 cabling with a centralised media system, ensuring the property is as technologically advanced as it is visually striking.
Garden & Exterior
Beyond the interiors, the landscaped gardens provide an oasis of tranquillity. Predominantly laid to lawn and framed by mature hedging, the grounds feature a generous terrace, ideal for al-fresco dining.
The elegant carriage driveway offers extensive parking and access to the double garage.
