About this listing

A sizeable, impressive and elegant penthouse apartment, enjoying exceptional views, set within this prestigious country estate on the edge of the sought-after village of Penshurst. Description The Estate offers secure and convenient living in the heart of the beautiful Kent countryside on the outskirts of the historic village of Penshurst and within the High Weald National Landscape. The original Swaylands House was built in the mid 1800s and later extended and sold to the banker George Henry Drummond, a close friend of Edward VII, who is reputed to have been a regular guest. Between the wars the house was used as a specialist hospital and then a school from the 1950s until the end of the 1980s. Flat 4, Drummond Hall is an exceptional apartment in the development; an immaculately presented penthouse approaching 3800 sq ft, within a purpose built building, the apartment offers grandeur and longevity, with glorious and far reaching views over the communal gardens, over the Penshurst Place Estate and neighbouring countryside, quite the exceptional aspect. The expansive and impressive 44 foot long reception room is of particular note, easily zoned and able to comfortably accommodate a dining room, sitting room and snug/library/TV area. The reception room enjoys the wonderful views over the communal gardens and countryside with three Juliet balconies to one end of the room. The generous and highly stylish fitted kitchen is very well equipped, with a range of integrated appliances and base and wall units providing good storage, with striking granite worktops providing good preparation space.
