The RAF Officers Mess is steeped in World War 2 history as the former living quarters of the the Battle of Britain officers and pilots, now a family home that is offered for sale for the first time in 30 years.
This magnificently handsome Grade II listed Neo Baroque style red brick building with stone dressing and sash Georgian windows comprises a three storey central block with two storey wings and sits on a wide plot within 8 acres of private land and matured terraced gardens with far reaching views from the roof terrace where officers would gather to view the returning aircraft along with esteemed guests such as Winston Churchill.
The impressive arrival is via a semi circular stone entrance porch with Tuscan columns and stone balustrades leading into a generous welcoming hallway with high ceilings and marble floor, the flexible accommodation spans over 24500 square feet and includes an impressive 35 bedrooms and 11 bathrooms, generous reception rooms, ballroom, corporate kitchen with preparation area, dining room, multiple offices, snooker room with bar, squash court, tennis court, basketball court, outdoor swimming pool with changing rooms plus a further 11,323 square feet of convertible outbuildings including 17 garages.
The property boasts original features throughout and would benefit form modernising.
Biggin Hill airport is experiencing rising demand for private jet hire and there is insufficient high quality accommodation to meet demand therefore this represents a unique opportunity and would suit development potential as a family home, luxury apartments/townhouses, hotel (planning approved), care home, private hospital or corporate head quarters.
Ideally located close to central London and Bromley town centre with fast trains to Victoria station (11 minutes) and private helicopter into Battersea Heliport (8 minutes) plus it is not often that you can have your own jet parked outside your home.
Viewing is strictly by appointment for qualified buyers.
