About this property

    Set within the timeless tradition of Kent’s grand country houses, this exceptional residence is a striking example of contemporary architectural design, located just 15 miles from central London. Once forming part of the prestigious Lullingstone Estate, the property occupies an enviable south-facing ridge, extending to approximately five acres of beautifully framed grounds bordered by mature trees and ancient hedgerows. Designed with a Nautical theme by the acclaimed architect Richard Reid, the house offers an impressive sense of space and light, complemented by breathtaking panoramic views across the surrounding countryside.
    Beyond the principal six-bedroom residence, the estate includes a garage, swimming pool, and cleverly integrated storage rooms discreetly built into the landscaped garden walls. A substantial gated courtyard provides access to a range of agricultural outbuildings, making the property particularly well-suited for equestrian or lifestyle use.

    Approached via a striking glass and steel bridge, the entrance sets the tone for the home’s contemporary elegance. The main house offers six generously proportioned bedrooms, four bathrooms, and a cloakroom. Living spaces include a well-appointed kitchen with adjoining family room, utility room, and a dramatic double-height dining hall with balcony. A triple-aspect reception room, study, and laundry/plant room further enhance the accommodation, while the lower ground floor-currently arranged as a gymnasium-offers flexibility for conversion into a home cinema or leisure suite.
    Designed to maximise natural light throughout, the house features extensive glazing, projecting window bays, a glass cupola, and soaring ceilings (approximately 2.6m). Expansive verandas and terraces provide seamless indoor-outdoor living, perfectly positioned to capture sunlight throughout the day and take full advantage of the spectacular views. Full-height double glass doors reinforce the home’s connection to its idyllic setting, reflecting Richard Reid’s philosophy of bringing the countryside indoors.

    The interior has been finished to an exceptional standard, with meticulous attention to detail. A newly refurbished kitchen sits at the heart of the home, while premium materials-including marble, limestone, and American oak-add a sense of understated luxury throughout.

    The sweeping driveway provides access to a large discreet under ground double garage.

    There is further potential with plans already submitted for the addition of a tennis court.

    For the Golf enthusiast Lullingstone Golf Course is just around the corner.

    Ideally positioned in Well Hill, the property benefits from proximity to Chelsfield mainline station, offering a swift 17-minute journey into London-perfect for commuters. The area is renowned for its excellent selection of schools, including Chelsfield Primary, The Highway and Warren Road primaries, Newstead Wood, St Olave’s Grammar, Tunbridge Wells Grammar School for Boys, Weald of Kent Girls’ Grammar, and Trinity School in Sevenoaks.
    Excellent transport links are within easy reach, including the M25 (Junction 4), Dartford Crossing, Bluewater, the South Coast, and international connections via the Channel Tunnel and Ebbsfleet International. This rare and remarkable home offers a unique blend of rural tranquillity, refined family living, and outstanding connectivity.
