Beresford Place is a magnificent Arts & Crafts country house, built in 1926 by the celebrated architect Baillie Scott. Lying on a private lane on the outskirts of Crockham Hill, the house is enveloped by over 30 acres of gardens and parkland, with far-reaching southerly views across the High Weald. Combining the character of its period architecture with thoughtful contemporary touches, it’s a home perfect for family life and entertaining.





The ground floor unfolds across a series of beautifully proportioned rooms. The drawing room, framed by a deep bay window, looks out across manicured lawns and opens onto a broad terrace. A sitting room connects to the dining room, creating an easy layout for gatherings, while the family room offers a relaxed counterpoint with bespoke cabinetry and a softer palette. The kitchen is the heart of the home, its bespoke joinery, marble surfaces and generous island setting the scene for convivial breakfasts and family dinners alike. French doors open to the terrace and to the indoor pool complex, which also houses a sauna, shower and changing room. A study, utility and cloakroom complete this floor.


Upstairs, the principal suite commands wonderful views and includes a dressing room with fitted wardrobes, an ensuite bathroom and access to a private roof terrace. Three further double bedrooms, each with its own ensuite, complete the first floor. The top floor offers two additional bedrooms, a family bathroom and a large games room. The self-contained annexe provides flexible accommodation for guests or staff, arranged over two floors with its own kitchen, living space and shower room.





The approach to Beresford Place sets the tone: a sweeping, tree-lined drive culminating at the house and barn, where there is ample parking. The gardens are spectacular, broad lawns, terraced borders and rockeries descend towards a formal sunken garden and onward to park-like grounds dotted with mature trees. A lake lies beyond, edged with aquatic planting, while pastureland to the east provides scope for equestrian use and was once used as a private airstrip. Outbuildings include an impressive barn with gym, studio, shower room and extensive storage.





Beresford Place also benefits from planning permission for the demolition of the existing Dutch barn and the addition of new two-storey extensions, roof and fenestration alterations, offering a rare opportunity to further enhance this already remarkable estate. (Planning permission reference: 23/03145/HOUSE).





Set within an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and Green Belt, the house lies moments from Crockham Hill village and within easy reach of Westerham, Oxted and Sevenoaks. The area offers exceptional schools, sporting facilities and access to National Trust woodland, including Chartwell, Sir Winston Churchill’s former home, less than three miles away.
