About this property
Elegant and spacious two bedroom penthouse in this prestigious building with incredible views across the communal gardens and countryside beyond.
The property forms part of the prestigious Swaylands Estate, originally a stately home built in 1878 later converted into apartments in 2009. The building has recently undergone more extensive renovation and whilst Grade II-listed, has modern conveniences such as underfloor heating throughout and slim-line heritage double glazed windows set within the original stone mullioned surrounds. This elegant penthouse apartment is generously proportioned, offering about 1800 sq ft of accommodation including a very spacious sitting room with a south-westerly aspect, which enjoys excellent natural light. The double aspect kitchen/breakfast room is well appointed with appliances including an oven, gas hob, wine cooler, dishwasher and coffee machine all within oak cabinetry under granite tops. There is plenty of space for a large table for entertaining and wonderful views across the communal gardens and countryside beyond. The principal bedroom has two large built-in wardrobes, a separate well-fitted bath/shower room and a long corridor which lends itself to being a dressing area or study area. The second bedroom has the use of a second bathroom and there is an additional cloakroom. The wide hallway also gives access to the delightfully secluded private roof terrace, nestled within the chimneys and rooflines of the building, a charming area for al-fresco entertaining and relaxing.
Outside
In addition to the afore-mentioned private roof terrace, the apartment has the benefit of the 42 acres of beautifully landscaped communal gardens, once described as “the most beautiful private grounds in Kent.” There are formal knot gardens, wide swathes of lawn edged with immaculate flower borders in addition to a tennis court and lake. There is also a communal gym which has recently been renovated and this apartment also has the benefit of a garage en-bloc, a store room and 2 allocated parking spaces.
