This impressive apartment has been a delightful home for many years. It is wonderful to be surrounded by the lovely parkland and be part of a friendly community. It is very quiet and peaceful but it is only about a mile from Shipbourne village in an AONB as well as a Conservation and Special Landscape Area. There is a large village green, an historic church and a village hall at the end of a Kentish Hall House as well as tennis courts, a good primary school, a weekly farmer's market and the Chaser Inn and restaurant.

It is just three miles to Tonbridge where you will find a variety of independent shops, hair and beauty salons, bars and restaurants with additional supermarkets and retail outlets on the outskirts of the town. There is a mainline station with trains to London Bridge taking about half an hour or 42 minutes to Charing Cross.
