Designed by award winning architect, Simon Beck, this fine 7 bedroom Arts and Craft style detached house extends to over 6,000 sq ft and was inspired by the work of George Devey, an Arts and Crafts architect famous for the Leicester Square development at nearby Penshurst.

Set in magnificent established gardens with underground parking the property enjoys a private position. The property is approached off Holden Road via automatic gates to a private driveway. At the entrance is a small wildlife sanctuary with groups of protected trees, shrubs and a natural pond.

A magnificent oak front double door leads into the entrance hall and then into the main hall with doors leading to a series of beautiful, well proportioned reception rooms. The drawing room with elegant cornicing opens onto the large terrace to the rear and the dining room is a grand double height space with large bay windows letting the light flood into the room. The study / library is a generously proportioned room with a bay window over looking the front gardens. Each of these rooms features a large stone or wooden fireplace.

The kitchen and breakfast rooms are linked to form a wonderful space which opens via double doors to the rear garden and links down to the utility room in the basement. The basement also provides underground parking for two cars, a separate W.C and a games room / cinema.

The oak staircase sits in an atrium and ascends to the first floor where there are five bedrooms all with ensuites. The master suite also benefits from a separate dressing room. The second bedroom has built in wardrobes and overlooks the front garden and could be incorporated into the master suite if required.

The galleried landing looks up over the Common and internally down to the dining room, three further generous bedrooms complete the accommodation on this floor.

A secondary staircase leads up to the second floor where there are two large rooms and adjacent areas for either storage or potentially a bathroom. Alternatively the space could be used for additional living / play areas.

The established grounds extend to about 0.8 of an acre including a large lawned garden to the rear, with mature trees adding to the privacy of the property and large stone terrace ideal for outside entertaining which leads onto a gravel pathway with pergola over.
