In a wonderful, slightly elevated position towards the edge of a charming Kentish hamlet, surrounded by beautiful rolling countryside, an impressively handsome, detached house of quality with exceptional accommodation of expansive proportions. With origins dating to the early years of the twentieth century, the house has undergone a comprehensive programme of refurbishment and extension under the exacting eye of the current owner. Mindful of retaining the grace of the Edwardian era, the brief was to ensure contemporary and luxurious living was incorporated into the project, whilst at the same time providing a warm and welcoming family atmosphere. With large windows and glazed doors allowing for maximum natural light penetration, that also frame the fabulous outlook, the house has elegant and sociable accommodation laid out over two floors extending to in just over 14,200 square feet – including the leisure suite and indoor pool - together with detached garaging and a detached garden studio. The elegant reception rooms are arranged around a handsome and impressive, circular, pillared reception hall with fine wood panelling to the walls and a coloured glass cupola. The formality of this space blends seamlessly with the extraordinary family living areas where there is a wonderful orangery with glass vaulted ceiling and is connected to the family room and superb kitchen/breakfast room by open arches. Fitted by Rencraft, the cabinetry within the kitchen is extensive and includes a large central island, marble worksurfaces and fitted appliances by Miele and an electric Aga with companion. Glazed French doors open through to the stunning indoor pool with hot tub, sauna and steam rooms, and changing facilities. The gym has mirrored walls and the billiard/snooker room oak flooring. Elsewhere is an excellent cinema, ground floor guest/relative suite with large bedroom, kitchenette and en-suite shower room, laundry and plant rooms.
To the first floor, the curved, galleried landing has bespoke oak balustrading and leads to seven bedrooms supported by five bath/shower rooms – four of which are en-suite, The principal suit commands lovely views over the grounds and beyond and has a fitted dressing room, as well as an en-suite shower room.
