To the east, a newly constructed machinery store, also suitable as a helicopter hangar, adds a discreet yet highly practical modern touch.History - Few houses can claim a history as rich or as influential as Holwood, and fewer still combine such pedigree with effortless modern living. The site itself is recorded as an Iron Age fort, Caesar's Camp, and has long been recognised for its strategic and scenic importance. In the late 18th century, Holwood became the cherished retreat of William Pitt the Younger, Britain's youngest ever Prime Minister, who commissioned Sir John Soane to remodel the house and transform the surrounding landscape. It was here, beneath a great oak tree in 1787, that Pitt famously encouraged William Wilberforce to begin the parliamentary campaign to abolish the slave trade. The house was later rebuilt in its current classical Georgian form by the celebrated architect Decimus Burton in 1827. Over the centuries, Holwood has welcomed an extraordinary roll call of visitors and residents, including Charles Darwin, who conducted experiments in the grounds, and Winston Churchill, who dined here regularly during the Second World War. Today, the house and grounds are Grade I listed, reflecting their exceptional historical significance.Location And Lifestyle - Holwood House enjoys an elevated, private position just east of the charming village of Keston, which offers a village hall, pub and post office.

In 1999, the current house was constructed, a labour of love and a true passion project. As a family involved in property development, this project held special significance, blending our personal ambition with professional expertise. Proudly rooted in Welsh heritage, the family worked with a Welsh architect and prioritised using local materials and craftsmen, making the construction of Foxfield a tribute to our cultural pride. Spanning three years, the build was a monumental undertaking, yet the result was a home that, despite its grandeur, remains warm and inviting. The house itself spans four levels, including an ingenious undercroft garage and a bespoke roof space using glulam beams to create a wonderful space including a fully functioning kitchen and bar. The lift services all floors in the house. It's a perfect retreat, whether for relaxation or celebration. The family's meticulous attention to detail is evident throughout, with every aspect of the property maintained to the highest standard. The kitchen has always been the heart of the house a place where Sunday lunches were a cherished tradition. One of the favourite rooms for the family is the cellar, beautifully designed to feel timeless. The formal dining room has hosted up to 16 for special occasions, creating unforgettable memories year after year.Talking of celebrations Foxfield has been a hub for family and friends. We created a space that grew alongside the family and became a venue for countless joyous occasions milestone birthdays, anniversaries and even NSPCC charity events. Visitors are always captivated by the stunning staircase, a centrepiece that never ceases to amaze, even after 20 years, it still takes one's breath away.
