Back Street, Maidstone, ME17 1TG

Tucked away down a tranquil country lane and framed by the breathtaking silhouette of the North Downs, Arnold Court is a rare 1930s gem that has been meticulously reimagined for contemporary living.

Approached via secure electric gates, a sweeping driveway reveals this imposing residence, which seamlessly blends architectural heritage with high-specification luxury.

The journey begins in a magnificent double-height entrance hall, where full-height panelling and intricate tiled flooring set a tone of refined sophistication.

High ceilings add to the grandeur that flows into the Nobilia designer kitchen, a sleek, German-engineered gourmet space featuring a large central island, dual-fuel lpg range cooker and an instant boiling water tap.

A charming window seat is perfectly positioned to frame the far-reaching valley views.

The kitchen seamlessly flows into a stunning orangery, which bathes the kitchen in natural light with two sets of double doors that open directly onto the south-facing terrace and garden.

A formal dining room, an inviting sitting room with substantial fireplace and wood-burning stove and a family room with a bespoke media wall, provide diverse spaces for both grand entertaining and intimate family evenings.

The study, positioned privately off the sitting room, offers a peaceful haven for work, characterised by its bright double-aspect views. The property offers five generous bedroom suites.

The principal suite with its triple-aspect boasts panoramic views of the North Downs, a dedicated walk-in dressing room and a luxury ensuite featuring a freestanding bath, large walk in shower and exquisite Delft-style tiling.

Two additional double suites reside on the first floor, one of which also has a dressing room, with two further private suites tucked away on the second floor, perfect for guests or an independent floor for children.

Every bathroom throughout the home features bespoke tiled floors and underfloor heating, maintaining the property's commitment to high-specification luxury.

On the ground floor the boot room connects the main house via the substantial utility room with the indoor pool complex and showering facility.

The indoor pool complex features a dramatic vaulted timber ceiling, 34ft pool with an automatic pool cover, a dedicated gym space and its own changing room.

Three sets of sliding doors merge the indoors with the south facing terrace and gardens.

The grounds include a professional grade refurbished tennis court and approximately 2.5 acres of adjoining fields with cobnut trees and a tractor shed.

An additional 2.5 acres of gardens wrap around the house and include two large terraces at the front and rear of the house, offering the perfect backdrop for alfresco dining overlooking natural ponds and a mature weeping willow.

A triple garage with large storage room above and its own EV charging point as well as a double carport, offer ample space for vehicles.
