Description

This stunning estate, Linton Park, sits on a south-facing slope overlooking the River Beult and the Weald of Kent. The property's entrance is marked by a listed North Lodge, and the drive winds through parkland and woodland before reaching the house. The original 19th-century mansion, designed by Robert Mann and extended by Thomas and William Cubitt, has been lovingly restored to preserve its original features, including magnificent fireplaces, plaster work, and craftsmanship. The house boasts seven reception rooms, including a salon, dining room, and morning room, with floor-to-ceiling sash windows offering breathtaking views of the gardens and surrounding countryside. The property also features a cantilevered staircase, four bedroom suites, and a secondary staircase leading to a further four bedrooms. The estate's gardens, a Grade II* listed feature, extend to 20 acres and provide a magical setting for the house. With excellent road and rail access to London, Linton Park is an ideal location for those seeking a tranquil retreat with easy commuting options.
