Fancy spending the summer playing tennis and taking a dip in your own private pool?

This six-bedroom house in Godden Green, near Sevenoaks, has everything you need to spend a dream summer holiday in the English countryside.

The Victorian property, now on the market for £7.95m, has been inspired by Gothic influences and British colonial styling, with period features such as high ceilings, wood block flooring, sash windows and fireplaces.

The historic elements of the house, which have been carefully maintained and embellished by the current owners, adds to the English charm of the property, particularly given its idyllic countryside location.

There is more than 16 acres of parkland surrounding the house, with sprawling fields and farmland extending beyond the property and offering spectacular views of the Kentish countryside.

The outside space also includes a large swimming pool within walled gardens and a secluded tennis court, all with a picturesque backdrop of meticulous lawns, evergreen trees and banks of rhododendrons.

When you’ve had enough of sunbathing by the pool or sweating it out on the tennis court, you can head inside and admire the stunning interior of this period home.

The house itself features six bedrooms, including a principal suite with two dressing rooms and an en suite with a roll top bath, a kitchen/breakfast room with a range style cooker and a dining room with views of the garden.

There is also a study, family room and sauna in the main house.

The property also boasts a secondary accommodation in the form of a one-bedroom cottage, which can be used for visiting friends and family or be rented out to holidaymakers.

The town of Sevenoaks is only a short drive from your front door, with the train station - which has links to London Cannon Street, Charing Cross and London Bridge - less than three miles away.
