Kings Park, Isington Road, Bentley, Hampshire, GU34 4PP [map]

Dating from 1901, this stunning 6-bedroom house boasts generous period proportions and an array of south and west-facing windows that fill the high-ceilinged rooms with natural light. The original coach house also provides the perfect opportunity to create a dream home office, gym, studio or workshop. 

Additionally there is a charming separate two-bed cottage, a private swimming pool and a former grass tennis court that doubles as an ideal croquet lawn.   The estate also comes with a large stable block with five stalls and a storeroom, plus indoor garaging for several cars.

Life at Kings Park

Country Splendour 

Tucked away in a secluded5.25 acre plot in the South Downs National Park, this classic Edwardian country residence features six bedrooms, four bathrooms and three reception rooms with parkland- style gardens that blend seamlessly with the stunning surrounding countryside and woodland. 

Making an Entrance

From Isington Road, the leafy lane passes under a bridge and opens up into a tree-lined gravelled drive that winds through the grounds before sweeping round a turning circle in front of the house.  There is parking for numerous cars in the front driveway and plenty more available in the extensive garage block. 

The house, with its gabled roofline and decorative Edwardian features, sits surrounded by lawns and established trees.  Inside, an elegant, formal hallway boasts high coved ceilings, large windows and dado and picture rails as are found throughout the home. There are spacious cupboards for coats and shoes and a spot-lit alcove that comfortably houses a piano.

Gracious Living

The rich wooden flooring in the hallway extends into all of the downstairs rooms except the kitchen, where cosy underfloor heating enhances the inviting atmosphere. The hallway then divides to both the reception rooms and the kitchen, creating a sense of natural flow while maximising the movement of light. 

Turn left past the staircase to find a dual aspect library/family room with bespoke oak bookcases overlooking the beautiful garden. Adjacent is the elegant cloakroom with a charming porthole window to match the nautical-themed wallpaper. 

Returning back past the stairs and through into the formal drawing room, a sweeping bow window and French doors frame views out over the lawn to the guest cottage. There’s also a lovely open fireplace with integrated storage on either side that can accommodate both firewood and your music collection. 

Internal double doors link this sociable space to an equally bright and airy dining room, which in turn leads into the hallway and kitchen – an ideal layout for parties. Moreover, the dining room is bordered by a full length built-in window seat offering the perfect spot from which to read, admire the garden or watch the children playing.

Family Life 

Continue into a modern dining kitchen where contemporary heated floor tiles complement the wooden shaker-style cabinets and a granite worktop complete with a breakfast bar. 

Integrated appliances and features include a 1.5-bowl sink, a Neff double oven, a dishwasher, and an induction hob set within the chimney breast. There’s also a useful dresser cabinet with a second sink in the breakfast area by the patio doors leading out on to the garden. 

Meanwhile, the adjoining large utility room offers ample additional storage, pantry shelving, space for laundry appliances plus an American-style fridge-freezer and wine fridge. 

Peaceful Slumber

Up the split-level to the first-floor landing, where to the left, a king-sized master bedroom with plenty of windows and integrated wardrobes and a luxurious en suite bathroom. 

Soak away your cares in an inset roll-top bath or in the separate double shower, both with delightful garden views. Across the landing are two further double bedrooms, one with an en suite shower room and the other with a row of in-built wardrobes.  Both overlook the front garden and the expansive fields beyond. 

At the end of the the corridor, lies another elegant double bedroom and a modern family bathroom.  Upstairs on the second floor, you’ll discover a big double with an en suite shower room, plus a smaller bedroom ideal either for children or for use as a large walk-in wardrobe.

The Cottage

This idyllic country estate is completed with a detached two-bedroom guest house. Set over two floors, the cottage provides perfect additional accommodation for dependent relatives, visiting guests or staff managing the house and grounds. 

Set within its own garden with a driveway and lake, the cottage features a south-facing open plan living area with a gorgeous open fireplace, a well- equipped country-style kitchen with views to three aspects and doors to
a wrap-around terrace. Off the hall is the primary bedroom and bathroom. Upstairs there is a second bedroom and a bathroom. 

Glorious Grounds

A variety of mature trees on over five acres of sweeping lawns, granting complete privacy and seclusion. These glorious grounds offer stunning, long-ranging views over the adjoining fields, far woodlands and the South Downs National Park. 

In the warmer months, you can entertain friends and family with tennis or croquet on the lawn or a spot of sunbathing by the swimming pool, which comes with a terrace and gazebo, perfect for a barbecue and long summer lunch. 

The Outbuildings

The original coach house is primed for conversion to a spacious home office, studio or gym whilst the large garage and stable blocks could easily be re-purposed according to your interests and requirements. The potential scope for these outbuildings is extensive. 

On Your Doorstep

Kings Park is situated in Isington, a rural Hampshire hamlet near the River Wey, yet is also within 5 minutes drive or bike ride of Bentley station with trains running to London Waterloo in under an hour. 

Bentley offers a village shop/post office and there’s a popular organic farm shop for a coffee after a hike around the picturesque farm trail. Bentley has a well regarded Ofsted rated 'Good' C of E school. 

Kings Park is a short distance from the Georgian market towns of Farnham and Alton, both offering a great selection of shops, cafés and Waitrose supermarkets.

For commuting; the A31 provides
fast access to the M3 (J5), the national motorway network, and Heathrow (40 minutes), Gatwick (50 minutes) and Southampton Airport (30 minutes).
