Traditional craftsmanship and a selection of leading designer names ensure that the premium specification at Sundridge Park is especially evident in the kitchens, utility rooms and bathrooms.
At Sundridge Park residents can enjoy the extensive landscaped grounds, which are being fully restored to their original glory as Humphry Repton intended, including large green lawn areas, small private gardens and areas of seclusion as required.
Sundridge Park Golf Club came into being in 1901 when Sir Samuel Edward Scott, then owner of Sundridge Park mansion and close friend of Edward VII, sold much of the estate for development. He became the club's first president and he retained the office until his death in 1943. Under Sir Samuel's stewardship, the club grew rapidly. Formally opened as a 9 hole course by no less a person than Alfred James Balfour, the Prime Minister in 1903, it soon expanded to 18 holes and then into the two championship golf courses that exist today.
