Description
Discreetly positioned in the countryside on the outskirts of the historic village of Cobham, Barnside is a property of rare charm and elegance and is believed to be of Georgian origins and unlisted. Built by Lord Darnley as part of the Cobham estate this property has been in the same ownership for over 50 years. Behind its traditional façade lies a home that has been lovingly curated to offer the very best of both worlds: a celebration of period character combined with the comfort demanded by family life.
Barnside exudes charm and character. Original beams and inglenook fireplaces nod to the property’s heritage, while light-filled rooms provide a sense of space and flow. The principal reception rooms are arranged to encourage both intimate family moments and grander gatherings, with French doors opening directly onto the terrace to extend the living space outdoors. A double cellar with brick barrel-vaulted ceilings provides generous storage.
At the heart of the home, the kitchen and dining area has been designed with both style and function in mind with an extensive range of base units and an oil fired AGA and the comfortable dining space creates an inviting setting for everything from weekday suppers to festive entertaining.
The bedroom accommodation is equally impressive. The principal triple aspect bedroom offers a private retreat with a fitted wardrobe cupboard, while additional bedrooms are beautifully proportioned, ideal for family, guests, or home working. The family bathroom completes the first floor accommodation.
The delightful annexe provides excellent accommodation for multi-generational living or guests with a welcoming sitting room, kitchen, two bedrooms and a bathroom.
Barnside’s gardens are a true delight with mature shrubs and trees creating colour and structure through the seasons, they provide both a backdrop for entertaining and a haven for relaxation. A sun terrace invites al fresco dining, while lawns and mature borders offer a serene escape from the pace of modern life. A swimming pool in need of updating adds further potential to this delightful outdoor setting. Ample parking and a detached triple garage complete the picture.
Location
Cobham is one of Kent’s most desirable villages, celebrated for its historic charm, welcoming community, and proximity to both countryside and city. Traditional pubs, a picturesque church, a community run village shop, Primary School and a network of footpaths through rolling farmland give the village its timeless appeal.
Excellent transport connections place London and international travel within easy reach via Sole Street Station and Gravesend, Ebbsfleet International (approximately 7.4 miles and offers trains to St Pancras in just 18 minutes) , and the A2/M25 and Bluewater Shopping Centre is nearby.
A choice of outstanding schools, both state and independent, further enhance the location’s appeal for families.
