Description

Dinsley House: A Lutyens-Inspired Masterpiece in Exclusive Highbourne Park
An Unparalleled Residence of Distinction

Nestled within the prestigious Highbourne Park, an exclusive enclave of just twelve detached executive homes crafted by the renowned Walker Residential, Dinsley House stands as a testament to timeless elegance and architectural brilliance. Inspired by the visionary designs of Sir Edwyn Lutyens, echoing the grandeur of his famed Temple Dinsley in Hertfordshire, this magnificent property offers an exceptional standard of living.

A Legacy of Refinement

Occupied since its inception in 1998, Dinsley House has been meticulously maintained and thoughtfully updated by its current owners, presenting an immaculate canvas for discerning buyers. The sweeping driveway, flanked by verdant wraparound lawns and vibrant flowerbeds, culminates in twin opening gates and a commanding Portico porch with towering columns, setting an immediate tone of refined sophistication.

Grandeur and Light-Filled Spaces

Upon entering through double doors, a breathtaking hallway unfolds, showcasing a sweeping staircase with twin scroll handrails, ornate coving, decorative door surrounds, and exquisite tiled flooring. A guest cloakroom and ample storage enhance practicality. Double doors reveal the impressive drawing room, a space of soaring ceilings, intricate detailing, and abundant natural light streaming through a Mullion window offering captivating valley views. French doors open to the rear garden, while further double doors lead to the elegant dining room, perfectly designed for formal gatherings. A dedicated home office, also benefiting from the panoramic valley views, provides a tranquil workspace.

The Heart of the Home: A Culinary Haven

The kitchen, truly the heart of Dinsley House, boasts bespoke fitted units with wood block worktops, a striking British Racing Green Aga, integrated appliances, and a Villeroy and Boch ceramic sink overlooking the garden. Slate tiled flooring flows into an informal living space, bathed in light and offering further opportunities to enjoy the stunning vistas. A spacious utility room, complete with an original butler sink, provides practicality and convenience, with direct access to the double garage and rear garden.

Luxurious Accommodation and Breathtaking Views

Ascend the grand staircase to a landing illuminated by a quadruple window framing the breathtaking valley panorama. The master suite exudes opulence, featuring high ceilings, ornate coving, a Mullion window, and an en-suite bathroom with twin built-in wardrobes. Bedroom two offers garden views and an en-suite shower room, while bedrooms three and five, both doubles, enjoy garden and valley views respectively. Bedroom five also benefits from built in wardrobes and a box bay window.

Outdoor Splendor and Modern Conveniences

A detached double garage, equipped with remote-controlled doors, loft storage, power, and light, complements the property’s grandeur. The multi-level rear garden, meticulously landscaped with lush lawns, mature shrubs, and trees, offers a tranquil retreat. A double patio provides an ideal space for outdoor entertaining, enhanced by security lighting.

A Prime Location and Lifestyle

Highbourne Park’s enviable location offers access to a superb countryside park on the North Downs, with scenic walkways and panoramic views. Charing and Lenham railway stations, along with their charming villages, provide convenient access to local amenities, shops, restaurants, and excellent schooling.
