Some houses are for living, others are for lifetimes and for 50 years this home has been exactly that. From birthdays to milestone anniversaries to the Saturday afternoon summer barbecues, it has all been celebrated under garden marquees and this roof. This home has seen it all, from highs to lows, from laughter to tears and now it's ready for a new family to experience it all over again.<br/><br/>Stepping inside you're welcomed by a bright entrance hall with double doors to a spacious front reception room. The large bay window means natural light galore, and an inviting place to relax at the end of the day. To the rear, a separate dining room with French doors overlooking the well loved garden, making it easy for the inevitable al fresco dining in those warmer summer months.<br/><br/>The kitchen sits next to the dining room and offers plenty of cupboard space with an additional breakfast bar area, ideal for your morning coffee or a homework tackling station for your little ones. Depending on your own plans, there is also scope to create something here a little more open-plan, allowing you to truly put your own stamp on this home.<br/><br/>The downstairs is completed by a small WC just off the kitchen, perfect for guests without sending anyone upstairs.<br/><br/>Speaking of upstairs, there are three bedrooms and a modern shower room. The main bedroom benefits from multiple fitted wardrobes, with the second being another generously sized double overlooking the rear garden. This third is ideal for a nursery, or even a home-office if you're a work from home-r.<br/><br/>The most special part of this property is its garden, it has always been the absolute heart of this home. It's easy to see why when there is plenty of space for children to play or put up a paddling pool for long summer afternoons. Any gardeners will appreciate the already matured fruit and vegetable plants, and will enjoy a tradition that saw vegetables shared with neighbours and even once earned a television appearance. Two fig trees still produce sweet fruit every summer and the apple tree is dated back to when the area was still orchards and farmland.<br/><br/>For commuters, Malden Manor and Motspur Park train stations are within easy reach (neither more than 1 mile away). Both are served by South Western Railway providing regular trains to and from London Waterloo, as well as out to Chessington South, Dorking and Guildford.<br/><br/>If your little ones are getting ready to start school this summer, the nearest primary school is Malden Manor Primary 0.4 miles away and rated Good by OFSTED. The nearest school rated Outstanding is Burlington Infants School less than 1 mile away. For older kids, Richard Challoner School is your nearest and 0.6 miles away, it is also rated Outstanding.
