You would expect a house with a £5m price tag to look impressive on the inside, but this five-bedroom home boasts an even more breathtaking garden.

The detached Grade II listed property in Edenbridge, near the Kent /Surrey border, boasts spectacular formal gardens, partly designed by award-winning local garden designer Roger Platt.

The 4.5 acre landscaped gardens, set within the property’s 50 acre grounds, include a variety of trees, plants and flowers, all exceptionally maintained.

There is also a picturesque lake within the garden, as well as a patio terrace, hot tub and a bespoke Victorian Alitex Greenhouse which can be used to grow fruits such as oranges, lemons, limes, bananas and grapefruits.

While the garden itself is truly a standout of this country estate, the Old Dairy boasts many more striking features inside.

The home has five bedrooms, including a principal bedroom suite with its own dressing room and bathroom, as well as a self-contained one-bedroom apartment above the triple garage.

There is also a bespoke Mark Wilkinson kitchen and breakfast room with Gaggenau appliances, a drawing room with fireplace, vaulted ceiling and wood beams, and a cosy sitting room for the family to relax.

The house retains much of its historical charm, dating back to the 15th century, but has been updated with technological features such as underfloor heating, climate control, surround sound, a video security system and mood lighting to make it a contemporary and modern home.

In addition to the bedrooms and bathrooms, there are a couple of rooms in the house that you might not expect. The state-of-the-art cinema room and spacious wine cellar, for example, are luxuries that not every home can offer.

If you want to explore the local area, Edenbridge train station is less than two miles away. For those who want to go further afield, trains run approximately every 30 between London Victoria and Oxted, which is only a 10 minute drive away.
