10 bed detached house for sale

Lyne Crossing Road, Chertsey KT16

Arranged currently as three expansive duplex apartments, this handsome period property provides outstanding flexibility for multi-generational living. Planning permission is already in place to restore the house to a spectacular single private residence, making it equally suited to those seeking a grand family home within easy reach of London. The freehold, together with all three apartments, is available as a whole.

Carefully maintained and sympathetically restored by its owners over the past forty years, the house is rich in original character and elegant architectural detail. Impressive reception rooms and generous living spaces showcase features such as marble fireplaces, ornate cornicing, stained glass windows, and beautifully preserved parquet flooring.

The property sits within more than three acres of mature grounds that wrap around the house, creating a peaceful and private setting. Sweeping lawns, established trees, bluebell woodland, and a gently flowing stream bordered by yellow irises combine to form an idyllic landscape. Several terraces enjoy elevated views across the surrounding Green Belt countryside.

A separate games room within the grounds includes a kitchen and WC facilities, making it ideal for entertaining, celebrations, or guest accommodation for older children and teenagers. Attached to this is a substantial storage building currently housing a range of garden equipment, including ride-on mowers and a log splitter. Occupying its own title, the outbuilding may present future development opportunities, subject to the necessary consents. Additional external amenities include two summer houses and a greenhouse.

Parking provision is extensive, with two double garages, five single garages, and a large driveway capable of accommodating numerous visitors.

Virginia Water village provides an excellent selection of shops, cafés, and restaurants, together with a mainline railway station offering direct services to London Waterloo in approximately 50 minutes and Richmond in around 25 minutes.

For international connections, Heathrow Terminal 5 is reachable in roughly half an hour, while Gatwick Airport is approximately 45 minutes away.

The location is perfectly placed for enjoying the scenic walks and open spaces of Chobham Common and Windsor Great Park. The surrounding area is also highly regarded for its excellent schools, including Sir William Perkins’s School in Chertsey, St George’s School in Weybridge, Coworth Flexlands, and several other respected independent and state schools.
