Private gardens, flexible studio and village life near Oxted and Sevenoaks.
Victorian detached lodge with period timber detailing and log burner
Lewins Lodge is a detached Victorian-style lodge set back in very large, secluded gardens on the Surrey–Kent border. The house combines period character—high gables, timber detail and a contemporary cottage living room with a log burner—with a practical open-plan kitchen/dining area and a separate study ideal for home working. A newly built insulated outdoor studio with shower, heating and air-conditioning adds flexible space for an office, gym or guest room.
Internally the layout is straightforward: three bedrooms and a single family bathroom across two storeys, with a downstairs cloakroom and a light-filled lounge overlooking the garden. The property is modest in total floor area (approximately 895 sq ft), so rooms feel cosy rather than expansive. Heating is by an LPG boiler and radiators; the house has double glazing installed since 2002, but the original solid brick walls are likely uninsulated.
Outside, the plot is a standout feature—very large private gardens, raised patio and a double car barn providing covered parking plus a gravel driveway. The location offers rural tranquillity in a prospering countryside community with fast broadband, good local schools and easy road links to Oxted, Sevenoaks and the M25.
Important practical points: council tax is described as expensive and the tenure is not specified. The property’s solid-wall construction means owners should expect higher heating costs than insulated modern builds and potential improvement work if full wall insulation is desired. Overall this is a characterful village home for buyers who prioritise setting, garden space and adaptable outbuildings over large internal room sizes.
