About this property
Substantial wing of Grade II-Listed Lullingstone Castle with 4 bedrooms offering over 4000 square feet.
Moll Cob forms the East Wing of the historic Lullingstone Castle, home to the Hart Dyke family for 20 generations. The property sits within wonderful grounds including a 16th-century church and a 15-acre lake, with the main house remodelled in the 18th-century and enjoying world-renowned gardens. This highly individual property provides versatile and elegant accommodation over three floors, with a wealth of period features including wall panelling, fireplaces, tall sash and stained-glass windows. The property also enjoys exceptional views over the beautiful gardens. The property is accessed via an imposing stone vestibule and oak front door leading to an entrance hall with storage, a cloakroom and a utility area, currently used as a gym. A handsome oak staircase leads to the first-floor accommodation, arranged around a generous landing with views over the courtyard. The accommodation is very well proportioned and comprises a dual aspect sitting room, dining room, family room and kitchen, with a study and en suite shower room located up a short flight of steps and providing potential for separate guest accommodation/ fifth bedroom if required. The impressive kitchen/ breakfast room is well appointed with a range of bespoke wall and base units complemented by granite work surfaces. Appliances include a range cooker, induction hob and dishwasher. A further staircase rises to the second floor where there are four good size double bedrooms and two bathrooms. Two of the bedrooms feature fitted storage while the dual aspect master bedroom enjoys delightful views over the gardens. There is also a separate storage space on the first floor.
Outside
The property is accessed via an electric gate leading to a short driveway past the lake with a detached garage and electric gates to a private parking area. Mature planting throughout the garden includes wisteria and climbing vines on the front elevations, manicured lawns to the rear, well-established shrubs and a vast array of trees. The garden is enclosed on one side by a traditional brick and flint wall. To the front of the property there is a spacious terrace with a further raised paved seating area to the rear. A wooded area provides space for a log store, sheds and fire pit.
Situation
Lullingstone Castle is situated within vast grounds, with Lullingstone Golf Course and Lullingstone Park adjacent to the castle grounds and Lullingstone Visitor Centre a short distance via a riverside footpath. Lullingstone Castle also benefits from expansive communal grounds including a 15-acre lake and access to the river Darent (fishing rights possible with permit). Day-to-day amenities can be found in nearby Eynsford, a charming village at the heart of the Darent Valley in the Kent Downs Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. The village has an ancient humpback bridge and ford together with many Tudor buildings, a Norman church and the ruins of a Norman castle beside the River Darent. Eynsford has a number of local shops, pubs and restaurants and is within close proximity of the M20/M25 for wider road communications. More comprehensive shopping can be found in Sevenoaks or at Bluewater, and there are mainline rail services from Eynsford and Swanley serving Blackfriars, St Pancras International, London Bridge, Waterloo East, Charing Cross and London Victoria.
