A note from the Jeremy De Maid, Partner, "I am fortunate to have had the privilege of visiting many of the area's finest homes and Martin's Hill Lodge manages to completely captivate you like no other property I have visited. The Lodge's unique location so close to the bustle of Bromley town centre, yet situated in such a peaceful setting surrounded by parkland combined with its exceptionally presented accommodation make this property sale a once in a lifetime opportunity".
