On the Netflix show, glamorous real estate agents Chrishell, Christine and co. show their rich and famous clientele around some seriously impressive California homes with equally impressive price tags - not all that dissimilar to this one.

The main difference with this Stelling Minnis property, just outside of Canterbury, is that it is surrounded by peaceful Kentish grounds.

The property is surrounded by almost 14 acres of grounds. Picture: Fine and Country

There are almost 14 acres brimming with nature and wildlife, including landscaped gardens, vegetable gardens, orchards, a lake and a reservoir.

The outdoor space also includes a tennis court, basketball court and terrace with its own waterfall feature, making this house the perfect bridge between Hollywood chic and British countryside.

While the home has the appearance of a historic country manor and has been given some traditional touches, such as cathedral-style windows and outdoor windmills, it was actually only completed 10 years ago with a more modern and contemporary design in mind.

There was also a practical aspect in mind when designing the property, resulting in the triple garage, gated driveway and separate annex which can be used for guests, staff or rented out as a holiday home.

It is a remote location, given the amount of outdoor space around the house, but the bustling city of Canterbury is only a short drive away, and train stations at Wye and Chilham can be reached in less than 20 minutes by car.
