4 bed detached house for sale

The Gate Lodge, Kings Meadow, Caterham On The Hill CR3

A Distinguished History Combined With Underfloor Heating And A Gorgeous Miele Kitchen. The Gate Lodge is a unique family home, blending its RAF Kenley past with herringbone floors, quartz worktops and all, on a private plot behind the same gates as Lutyens' Grade II listed grand design.

RAF officers once walked past this exact spot on their way onto the airfield. These days it's where you'll make breakfast in a kitchen fitted with Miele appliances and quartz worktops, with underfloor heating warming the floor beneath your feet.

The Gate Lodge is the only detached house at Kings Meadow. The rest of the prestigious new development is made up of apartments and townhouses, but this comes with its own front door and its own private garden.

It sits right at the entrance to the estate on Kings Meadow Drive, close to the grand Grade II listed buildings that Lutyens, Blomfield and Scott helped shape, yet the house itself is brand new inside. Herringbone timber flooring runs through the main living areas, and the whole place is finished to the same high specification as every other home at Kings Meadow.

Downstairs, the kitchen-diner stretches close to 23ft, giving you the space to cook, eat and socialise together. The entrance hall and a separate living room complete the ground floor, along with a bedroom and bathroom.

Upstairs there are three further bedrooms and a second bathroom, with plenty of room for a growing family or space to work from home.

Beyond your own garden, forty acres of landscaped grounds and private woodland are yours to explore.

The restored Officers' Ballroom now holds a lounge and library, somewhere to unwind or catch up with friends, and there's a separate gym and racquets sports hub elsewhere on the estate.

You'll also get access onto the aerodrome itself, a rare thing for any home owner, plus a limited number of allotments planned for the site if you have green fingers and want to try growing your own veg.

The whole estate sits behind secure gates with fob entry and CCTV, so you get the privacy of your own house without giving up any of that peace of mind.

Kenley Common and the RAF Heritage Trail are right on your doorstep, ideal if you love walking, running or a spot of local history.

Whyteleafe and Upper Warlingham stations are just minutes away, getting you into Central London in under 30 minutes. And with the M25 and Gatwick nearby, you're well connected in every direction.

The Gate Lodge could be perfect if you’re looking for a unique family home with a distinguished past, setup for a thoroughly modern future. Given the unique nature of this detached family home we’re expecting plenty of interest, so get in touch to arrange a viewing.
