Taynton Drive Merstham, Redhill Guide Price £400,000 to £425,000

Guide Price £400,000 to £425,000 Hunter & Company are delighted to offer for sale this recently improved and modernised, three-bedroom terraced house in a popular area of Merstham. Our clients purchased the property three years ago from a family that had lived there for over forty years, so a top to bottom renovation project was what faced them. As you can see from the photographs and virtual tour, this house has been transformed and is presented in immaculate condition.

The house itself comprises; on the first floor, two double bedrooms, one single bedroom and a refitted family bathroom. On the ground floor, there is a lounge with a bay window, a stunning modern kitchen, and a utility room, with a door leading out to the rear and the downstairs WC.

On entering the property there is a large hallway, big enough for those everyday items like buggies, shoe stands and coat racks. The lounge faces the front and has a bay window, an ideal space for a dining table or comfy armchair. The carpet has been updated and the room tastefully decorated. The kitchen has been beautifully fitted, maximising the space. The white shaker units offer ample storage, offset by the laminate worktops with plenty of space for countertop appliances and food preparation. There is also a range of integrated white goods and space for free standing appliances. Located just off of the kitchen is a utility/walk-in pantry with understairs storage, downstairs WC and sliding doors out to the garden.

Going upstairs, there are two sizable double bedrooms and a large single room. Both bedrooms one and three also have built-in wardrobes. The family bathroom has a timeless feel, with a white three-piece suite including a panel enclosed bath with a mains pressure shower over, a low-level WC and a vanity enclose wash basin. This room is finished with neutral wall panels, wood effect flooring and a heated towel rail.

The rear garden is private and mainly lawn, enclosed by fencing to boundaries and access to the front via a shared alleyway. The front garden is enclosed by a low-rise brick wall with a path leading to the front door.

The property is located within the well-liked area of Merstham, there is a real sense of community here, something perhaps missing from newer developments. The Merstham regeneration scheme has a Co-op convenience store and Day-Lewis Pharmacy which opened in recent years. The Community Hub and more shop/restaurant units are also now open. Less than a 15-minute walk away you come to Old Merstham known for its charming high street and boutique shops with several listed buildings and home of the annual ‘Quality Street Fair’. Here, you also find Merstham mainline train station with regular direct trains into London Victoria & London Bridge taking less than 40 minutes. There are also great bus and motorway links with M25 and M23 nearby.

Located on the nearby Watercolour development are amenities including a Tesco Express convenience store, bus links, veterinary surgery, doctor’s surgery, pharmacy and a children's nursery. One other hidden gem, just on the outskirts of the village by Nutfield Marsh is Mercers Country Park, a significant nature reserve established around a former quarry pit. The historic pit is now Mercers Lake, which is used for water sports and offers idyllic views over the Greensand Ridge as well as plenty of public footpaths for dog walkers. Across from the Lake is the ever-popular 'Inn on the Pond' country pub, where many a Summer's day can be lost sitting outside enjoying a cold beverage, whilst watching the cricket being played on the green.

Several primary schools located nearby include Merstham, Furzefield and Lime Tree. For those with older children, there is The Carrington School, St Bede's, Royal Alexandra and Albert and Merstham Park, which opened in September 2018.
