Looking for a home that makes everyday life feel just a little more like a holiday?

• Soaring 1970s architecture filled with light.
• Three bedrooms, two bathrooms and a wonderful mezzanine master retreat.
• Private Garden-living designed for long lunches, summer evenings and easy entertaining.

Tucked privately away in one of Epsom's established residential streets, this architecturally designed home has something increasingly difficult to find - genuine personality.

Created in the 1970s, its soaring pitched ceilings, exposed structural lines and generous expanses of glass have stood the test of time remarkably well. The result is a home that still feels contemporary, relaxed and wonderfully connected to the outdoors.

At its heart, the kitchen, dining and living spaces flow together beneath the dramatic ceiling line, opening through French doors and glass to the sheltered garden beyond. There are lawns for children or grandchildren, sunny places to sit, and outdoor entertaining areas that make summer living almost effortless.

There is a certain French ease to it all. Doors open. Lunch drifts outside. Friends stay longer than intended.

Yet this is also a home designed for real life.

Two bedrooms and a bathroom are conveniently positioned on the ground floor, while upstairs the mezzanine master suite creates a private retreat of its own, complete with ensuite and a tucked-away office nook. It is an especially appealing arrangement for professionals wanting separation between work and home without actually leaving home - or for those wanting family and guests comfortably accommodated downstairs.

For many years this has been a home where a demanding professional and family life have worked beautifully together. Come home, close the door and the outside world seems to disappear.

Architectural when you want it. Practical when you need it. And in summer, something rather special.

Drop by to my Open Home, regards, Ann.
