About this property
An exceptional four-bedroom detached residence positioned within the exclusive and highly sought-after Farnborough Park Estate, offering beautifully appointed accommodation, a stunning landscaped garden, swimming pool, and versatile pavilion-style outbuilding.
Occupying a prime position within the prestigious private gated enclave of Farnborough Park, this impressive family home combines elegant Tudor-inspired architecture with contemporary interiors, creating a property ideally suited to modern family living. The accommodation extends across three floors and offers an abundance of natural light, generous proportions, and high-quality finishes throughout.
A spacious entrance hall provides a welcoming first impression and leads through to the outstanding open-plan kitchen and dining area, undoubtedly the centrepiece of the home. Expertly crafted by Stoneham, the kitchen features an extensive range of bespoke cabinetry, luxurious marble worktops, a substantial central island with breakfast seating, and an array of integrated appliances. A striking vaulted ceiling and expansive floor-to-ceiling glazing, complete with sliding doors, allow the space to flow effortlessly into the rear garden while flooding the room with natural light.
Adjacent to the kitchen is a practical utility room, fitted with additional storage and appliance space, together with convenient side access.
The ground floor also offers a generous family room, currently arranged as a cinema room, alongside an elegant living room centred around a stone fireplace and enjoying direct access to the garden terrace. A dedicated home office, fitted with bespoke Stoneham oak furniture, provides an ideal workspace, while a cloakroom completes the accommodation on this level.
The first floor hosts three superb bedroom suites, each benefitting from its own en-suite bathroom. The principal suite occupies the full depth of the property and enjoys views over the rear garden via a Juliet balcony. It further benefits from a substantial walk-in dressing room and a luxurious en-suite bathroom.
Occupying the top floor is an additional spacious bedroom suite with private en-suite facilities, making it an ideal guest suite, teenager's retreat, or flexible studio space.
Further highlights include oak internal doors, an elegant oak staircase with galleried landing, Travertine flooring within the entrance hall and kitchen, and underfloor heating throughout the property.
Outside, the rear garden has been thoughtfully designed to provide an attractive yet low-maintenance environment. Well-kept lawns are complemented by two separate terrace areas, perfectly suited for outdoor dining and entertaining. The swimming pool features an electric cover, while a substantial pavilion-style outbuilding at the rear of the garden is currently utilised as a gym but offers excellent versatility for a variety of future uses.
To the front, the property benefits from extensive off-road parking and access to an integral garage.
Farnborough Park has long been regarded as one of the area's most prestigious addresses since its origins in the 1920s. The estate benefits from a manned gated entrance and 24-hour security patrol, ensuring privacy and peace of mind.
Nearby Locksbottom offers an excellent selection of restaurants, traditional pubs, independent boutiques, coffee shops and major supermarkets. Further shopping and leisure facilities can be found at The Glades, Orpington High Street and Bluewater.
