Harestone Lane, Caterham, CR3

This exceptional home was completely rebuilt and completed in 2022, offering 3153 sq ft of thoughtfully designed and versatile living space on a generous 0.39 acre plot. Set on one of Caterham’s most desirable roads, it’s within walking distance of Caterham School via a nearby pedestrian bridleway and enjoys a peaceful outlook with far-reaching views to the front. The layout has been carefully considered, combining generous proportions with quality finishes throughout. The entrance hall sets the tone, with an impressive oak staircase and glass balustrade drawing in natural light. At the rear, the main living space flows across the back of the house, with bi-fold doors connecting the living room and kitchen to the garden. The kitchen is fitted with high-gloss cabinetry, timber worktops, glass splashbacks and a large island with breakfast bar seating. Appliances include a Smeg seven-ring range (available by separate negotiation), twin drinks fridge, integrated dishwasher, and built-in bin storage. There’s also a dining area with space for a family table and direct access to the patio. Off the kitchen is a well-fitted utility room with access to the garden and useful understairs storage, while a second door leads through to the front of the house. Also on the ground floor is a guest bedroom suite with double aspect views over the garden and an en suite shower room. A staircase rises to a flexible room above - ideal as a fourth bedroom, home office or gym - with an outlook to the front.

The ANNEXE is fully self-contained with its own front door to the side, but could easily be incorporated into the main house, should the incoming owners prefer. The layout includes a generous living/dining room with double doors to the garden, and a well-equipped kitchen fitted with matching wall and base units, a stainless steel sink with mixer tap, integrated dishwasher, washing machine, fridge/freezer and a useful larder cupboard. A double bedroom with full-width fitted wardrobes sits to the front, served by a modern en suite with walk-in shower, vanity basin and low-level WC. Upstairs, the galleried landing continues the bright and spacious feel, with a picture window looking out to the front. The principal bedroom is a standout space — double aspect, vaulted ceiling, full-height wardrobes, and a designated seating area taking in stunning views. Its en suite features a walk-in shower, freestanding bath, vanity unit and WC. Two further bedrooms complete the floor, one with dual aspect and the other with access to a Jack and Jill shower room.

Outside: The property is set well back from the road behind mature hedging, with a private driveway providing parking for several vehicles and an electric vehicle charging point. The frontage is neatly landscaped with raised beds and offers a good level of privacy. At the rear, a full-width terrace runs across the back of the house, ideal for outdoor dining and entertaining. A defined section of the terrace sits outside the annexe, creating a private space that gives it a sense of independence from the main house. There are external power points, and steps lead up to a beautifully maintained, level lawn. The garden is bordered by mature trees and hedging, providing excellent seclusion. At the far end, a curved, igloo-style garden pod offers further flexibility as a home office, studio or playroom. In all, the plot extends to approximately 0.39 acres (0.16 hectares).

Situation: Harestone Lane is one of Caterham’s most desirable residential roads, known for its greenery, privacy and excellent convenience. The property is ideally positioned for families, just a short walk from Caterham School via a pedestrian-only bridleway, with Oakhyrst Grange and Essendene Lodge also close by. Caterham Valley is within easy reach, offering a wide range of shops, supermarkets, cafés and restaurants. Caterham Station is approximately 0.7 miles away and provides regular services to both London Bridge and London Victoria. The M25 is accessible at Junction 6 (Godstone), around three miles away.
