Spacious family home with a substantial range of outbuildings & grounds of about 55 acres, presenting an exciting commercial & lifestyle opportunity in a stunning woodland setting.
Description
The impressive primary reception rooms comprise a sitting room with feature fireplace and bi-fold doors opening to the terrace, a double aspect playroom and a family room.
The bespoke kitchen is fitted with a comprehensive range of stylish wall and base units, a pantry cupboard and an island unit incorporating a breakfast bar. The adjoining breakfast/dining area has bi-fold doors opening to the terrace, and a utility room provides additional storage and space for appliances, together with a cloakroom.
There is a bedroom which adjoins the playroom and a shower room, formerly utilised as ancillary accommodation and benefitting from a separate access point from outside. A boot room/study and cloakroom complete the ground floor.
From the entrance hall stairs rise to the first floor and principal bedroom suite with fitted wardrobes, a balcony and modern en suite bathroom. There are five further bedrooms, one with an en suite shower room and dressing room, and a well-appointed family bathroom. Stairs rise to a substantial attic area.
Colinette Farm is approached over a long sweeping driveway, culminating at the house and providing ample off road parking. There is an outbuilding currently used as a garden implement/machinery store, with potential to convert to a garage, subject to the necessary planning permissions. Spanning the rear of the property is a generous decked terrace, ideal for al fresco entertaining. The garden is predominantly laid to lawn that slopes down to an area of established woodland. To the side is an enclosed area of landscaped lawn with established hedging and picket fencing to the perimeter providing a degree of privacy.
This unique property features a range of buildings, stables and established boarding kennels with a current commercial rating and active business rates, along with a variety of storage units. All outbuildings benefit from official Certificates of Lawfulness issued by Sevenoaks District Council, confirming that commercial operations have previously been run from the site—and can do so in the future.
The site also offers outstanding potential for further business development, with full planning permission already granted for five safari-style glamping tents, making it ideal for those seeking a lifestyle business in tourism or leisure.
Nestled in an idyllic and secluded location, the heart of the property—where the main house and outbuildings are positioned—is enveloped by enchanting ancient woodland known as The Great Wood, which also lies within a Biodiversity Opportunity Area. The surrounding fields rise gently to offer panoramic views over the beautiful North Downs, while still being conveniently located for local amenities.
There is excellent equestrian opportunity with stabling and a former indoor and outdoor sand school in need of refurbishment.
