This home is simply Chislehurst's best kept secret. A true oasis of beauty and tranquillity set within National Trust land, it's difficult to imagine this is so close to London (11 miles Canary Wharf, 13 miles Trafalgar Square). Words just cannot convey the essence of this opportunity, so viewing is essential.
This beautiful locally listed Georgian residence is a unique home of elegant proportions and a one-off opportunity in this outstanding location, set within the National Trust's Hawkwood Estate in prime Chislehurst.
Originally built as a laundry during the Georgian period in 1796, and sensitively converted to a residence in 1994 (winning a design award), this home benefits from typical Georgian features of high ceilings, tall windows and well-proportioned rooms that have an elegant sense of balance.
The interior design is in perfect harmony with the building creating a sense of calm and serenity.
There is a private gravelled driveway at the front with formal topiary beds and the utterly stunning mature gardens here surround the house and are an absolute delight with well-established planting, trees, lawns, vegetable garden, chicken coop, patios, potting shed and other outbuildings.
With the house providing accommodation of 2,166 sq ft and a guest cottage of 265 sq ft there are three/four double bedrooms, four bathrooms (three are ensuite) and delightful reception space.
In the main house the entrance hall is of muted tones with flagstones to the floor and deep skirtings, cornices and architraves (which also feature throughout the house).
The drawing room is a glorious space to lounge, dine and entertain in with the high ceilings, beautiful detail cornices, architraves and skirtings; an imposing feature fireplace with wood burning stove; hardwood flooring and almost floor to ceiling shuttered windows to three sides so the beautiful gardens are the backdrop here, and there is a door to the outside as well.
The kitchen is set up as the heart of family life with space for a central dining table and the bespoke cabinets are a mix of burr walnut and painted hardwood including display units and shelves and a butlers sink, and the base units are topped with a Carrera marble surface. A large new Aga and dark hardwood flooring add to the warmth.
The second reception room is presented as a 'snug' with a cosy feel, feature wallpaper, bespoke cabinetry, a window overlooking the front and a door to a guest cloakroom.
The principal bedroom suite to the first floor overlooks the front and is accented with attractive wall paper, has an extensive, delightful dressing room with bespoke fitted wardrobes, a stand-alone bath and an ensuite marble shower room. Bedroom two is also on the first floor with a large window overlooking the rear, fitted wardrobes and an ensuite shower room. The second floor features another spacious bedroom suite enjoying splendid views across the gardens and fields.
Further features of the house include Cat5 network cables, Sonos audio systems and air conditioning throughout.
In the grounds is a guest cottage with four windows, a central room of c212 sq ft and a separate shower room. The cottage is currently used as additional living space and office.
This picturesque location on the Hawkwood Estate is a lovely enclave in the heart of beautiful Chislehurst near the Chislehurst and West Kent Cricket Club ground, Chislehurst Golf Club and abundant green open common land.
Further benefits of this ideal location include easy commuting from Chislehurst station with fast trains to London taking from just 19 minutes and there is an excellent selection of state and private schools. Local Chislehurst Village and Royal Parade are a 10 - 15 min walk away where you can enjoy a selection of day-to-day shops, individual boutiques, health and beauty facilities and a good range of restaurants, coffee shops and local pubs.
