The mansion, called Darenth Court House, oozes grandeur with its eight bedrooms, a separate annex, and architectural features steeped in history.
Built around 1835, the Dartford property is an early Victorian-era beauty, complete with features like half moon window lights into the attic, a central doorcase flanked by pilasters, and an exterior finished stucco.

The architecture is meticulously preserved, keeping the elegance of the past.
Ornate cornices, elegant archways and beautifully restored spaces all contribute to the sense of history throughout the mansion.
The living area of the house is spread across four floors – with five reception rooms.

The estate agent says this space would ensure comfort for a large family, but it is also suitable for both grand scale entertainment and intimate family gatherings.
The Dartford mansion also boasts a unique basement bar and games area, complete with its own wine cellar.

If that was not enough the estate has vast grounds and outbuildings — offices, workshops, outbuildings, and stores are all part of the package — spread out over more than 12,400 sq ft.
A separate two-bedroom annex provides a cosy retreat for guests or could potentially be used for rental income.
