Set on an exceptional 1.8-acre plot in the attractive village of Knockholt, Meadows is a substantial six-bedroom family home offering almost 6,000 sq ft of accommodation. The house sits well within landscaped grounds behind electronically operated gates, with a sweeping private driveway, detached double garage and a secluded heated 10m swimming pool with changing room and WC. The principal reception rooms and sun room deliver generous, light-filled entertaining space with garden views from many rooms.
Internally the layout is traditional and versatile: five reception rooms, large kitchen/breakfast room, study with bespoke joinery and a guest suite on the ground floor that could serve as annex accommodation. Upstairs the master suite and multiple en-suite bedrooms suit a large or multi-generational family. Permitted development rights have been granted for two substantial outbuildings (a >300 sq ft home cinema and ~900 sq ft games room/gym), adding clear scope to extend leisure and ancillary accommodation without full planning.
Practical points to note: the property dates from 1930–49 with solid brick walls (no known cavity insulation) and an Energy Efficiency Rating of D. Broadband speeds are very slow in this location and council tax is band H (very expensive). Heating is gas-fired boiler and radiators; double glazing is installed though dates are not specified. These are manageable issues for buyers expecting to update or upgrade to modern efficiency standards.
This is a rare, private country-home opportunity for families seeking space, excellent nearby schools and strong road and rail links into London. The setting in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty with potential for further outbuildings and leisure facilities will appeal to purchasers wanting a long-term family base or a high-end country retreat close to the capital.
