7 Bedroom House in Maidstone, Loose

Welcome to Old Lakenham, a distinguished country retreat set at the head of the beautiful Loose Valley. This elegant period property combines timeless character with modern comfort, offering light-filled interiors, high ceilings, original fireplaces, and a graceful flow throughout.
From the welcoming double-height reception hall to the spacious dining, family, and games rooms, every detail is designed for both relaxation and entertaining. The heart of the home is a beautifully equipped kitchen/breakfast/sitting room with vaulted skylight, walk-in pantry, and seamless access to the gardens through French and bi-fold doors — creating the perfect setting for group meals, celebrations, or simply unwinding in comfort.
With five bedrooms in the main house, including a vaulted principal suite, as well as a separate two-bedroom annexe and a fully self-contained pool house, Old Lakenham offers flexible accommodation for large family gatherings, corporate retreats, or special occasions. The annexe features its own kitchen/living space, bathroom, rooftop viewing terrace, and private deck with countryside views. The pool area provides a true sanctuary, with a heated outdoor pool, hot tub, and a charming cabin-style pool house complete with open-plan living, en suite shower room, and direct access to the paved pool terrace — ideal for sun-soaked afternoons or evenings under the stars.
The gardens are a highlight of the property — beautifully landscaped and laid mainly to lawn, with mature planting, a rockery, pond, and cascading waterfall. Multiple terraces, accessible from the main reception rooms, offer idyllic spaces for al fresco dining and outdoor entertaining, with panoramic views over the surrounding countryside. Located in the heart of Loose village, guests can enjoy local pubs, the village store, scenic walks through the Loose Valley Conservation Area, and a sense of complete privacy while still being close to amenities. Whether you're gathering with loved ones, hosting a team getaway, or celebrating something special, Old Lakenham promises a truly memorable stay.
