We moved here in 1996 and it has been a wonderful home to bring up our family. However the children have now flown the nest and we feel it is time for us to downsize. We really love Pembury and lived here even before we bought this house but we saw this house and realised it was everything we needed at the time. It is quiet and peaceful and, because it is in a cul-de-sac, it is also very safe for children and pets. We have always enjoyed the large south facing garden and have hosted a number of outdoor parties and even a family wedding with a marquee that actually looked quite small when compared with the size of the garden.   It is great that the good primary school and nursery are within easy walking distance and we are not far from the doctor’s surgery while the recently built hospital is nearby. The heart of the village centres around the village green and it maintains its unique character with historic buildings from the 12th century through to the modern homes built in the 20th century. There is a useful convenience store as well as a post office, newsagent, bank, chemist and hairdresser and three pubs, other eateries and the Camden Arms Hotel, while excellent local produce is available from the Downingbury Farm shop. In addition to a junior football club and cricket club the village also includes a bridge club and the Pembury Players for those with a theatrical bent. We are just four and a half miles from Tunbridge Wells with its delightful mix of independent shops, bars and restaurants, high street stores, hair and beauty salons and a number of luxury and boutique hotels as well as retail parks and a station with trains that will get you to London within an hour. There are grammar schools and a number of primary and secondary schools rated Outstanding by Ofsted and entertainment facilities include a nine-screen Odeon cinema, the Trinity Theatre, the well-respected Assembly Theatre and for sports enthusiasts there is the indoor sports and tennis centre, a swimming pool and the Neville Golf Club.   Features: - Balcony - Garage - Garden - Parking

I moved here about 10 years ago because I really like the area and loved the garden where I spend much of my time. However, it is time to let new owners take on the project and create a special home suited to their individual needs. The location is a short distance to orchards and fields and great for walking the dog. I can also be in Waitrose and Sainsbury’s in five minutes while Hadlow village is also only a few minutes’ drive. It includes a variety of shops, a pub and a church. There is a good primary school in the village while the Hadlow College of Agriculture and Horticulture is well-known and includes the Broadview Gardens complex that has a tearoom and florist and where you can enjoy wandering around 10 acres of grounds. Tonbridge is a delightful town full of independent shops, hair and beauty salons along with plenty of bars and restaurants and more retail outlets on the outskirts of the town. There is a mainline station with trains that can whisk you to London in about half an hour. There are excellent educational facilities with a number of primary schools including Slade Primary rated Outstanding by Ofsted, several Outstanding grammar schools which includes The Judd School (boys), Tonbridge Grammar school and The Weald of Kent (girls) with specialist status including performing arts, maths and ICT, music and sports. There is also the West Kent College of further education and a small University of Kent campus as well as the famous independent Tonbridge School for boys founded in 1553. This provides a leisure club with extremely good facilities available to external club members including a swimming pool, gymnasium, athletics track and tennis courts while the town itself has golf, football, rugby, tennis and cricket clubs.

“We bought the house more than 17 years ago and it has been a wonderful family home. Over the years we have updated it but still retained some character features. However we feel it is now time to downsize although we still want to live in the same area if possible. It is very quiet and peaceful and we are only a two minute walk from the clifftops and blue flag beach at Botany Bay and not far away is the quiet Kingsgate Bay or Joss Bay for surfing and paddle boarding or the local riding stables for horsey enthusiasts. We are within walking distance of the North Foreland Golf club for golfing aficionados and if you want a drink or a meal without having to take the car out there is the Botany Bay hotel or the Captain Digby restaurant. A regular bus service takes you around Thanet on the Loop and there is a useful convenience store nearby.

We love the character of our home but were delightful to create the modern family space as well. We enjoy the peace and tranquillity as well as the surrounding countryside where we can take the dogs for great walks around the Chislet marshes. These were salt flats in ancient times and they mark the western end of the Wantsum Channel that historically separated the Isle of Thanet from the mainland, but now includes a crisscross of managed dykes.

We are quite close to Upstreet with the Grove Ferry Inn, village store and post office as well as a regular bus service between Canterbury and the Thanet towns, while Chislet includes a good primary school. It is not far to Marshside with the Gate Inn pub and restaurant and for those who enjoy fishing there is the Marshside Fishery with its two lakes covering seven and a half acres and these lakes are well stocked with a variety of fish including carp, tench and bream. For riding enthusiasts there is the Marshside Riding Club in nearby Maypole that also includes the excellent Prince of Wales pub and restaurant, while commuters can use the mainline station at Herne Bay where the high speed train can whisk you to St Pancras in under an hour and a half. If you like watersports there is sailing and jet skiing in Herne Bay and golfing aficionados can enjoy the nearby Whitstable and Seasalter or the Chestfield golf clubs.

“We moved here about five years ago because we loved the house and the surroundings. At the time other family members were living with us but that is no longer the case, so we feel it is time to downsize. Although we are in the country there is a bus service that goes through Waltham and there are wonderful places to go for walks. We are not far from the Compasses pub in Crundale, while near Petham there is the Chequers or the excellent Granville pub and restaurant as well as the useful farm shop in Lower Hardres. A good primary school is available in Petham. We are not far from Canterbury with its historic buildings, high street stores and individual shops, theatres, excellent state and private schools, universities, bars and restaurants as well as the mainline stations and high speed rail to London that can whisk you to London in under an hour. Alternatively, you can drive to Ashford International where the high speed train time to St Pancras is 36 minutes.

We bought the house from new in June 2020 and have thoroughly enjoyed our time here. We love the semi-rural location as well as the peace and tranquility that the penultimate plot location has given us. There is a real sense of community in the neighbourhood, our neighbours are kind and dependable and it's been great to live in such a safe area that is so child and pet friendly. We love how well connected the property is to both city life through the excellent transport links to London and the hugely characteristic and vibrant Tunbridge Wells town centre and Pantiles, as well as being just a stone's throw from such a rich array of beautiful countryside walks. The layout of the property has worked so well for us with the various entertainment spaces, working from home provision and three en suites. We love how light and bright the house is as a result of the feature windows on the staircases and French and bi-fold doors. The property is a really fun and functional property to host guests in and the layout just works really well for day-to-day living. The high quality of the build was reflected in the fact that the development won Highly Commended at the Evening Standard New Homes Awards 2020 recognising ‘innovation and excellence in design, suitability for purpose and sustainability’ as well as being short listed in the ‘Residential Development of the Year’ category for Insider’s South East Property Awards 2022.   We love being able to take our dog for walks in the award-winning Dunorlan Park, as well as nearby Calvery Park, Hawkenbury Recreation Ground, Hargate Forest and Rusthall Commons. There are also lots of woodland walks off Benhall Mill Road and Hawkenbury Road which make for lovely circular routes. The footpath that runs parallel to the front of the house is also a well-kept secret that provides a short-cut to the train station and town centre, as well as quick access to the Farmcombe Road Open Space. From here, there is a footpath that runs past the tennis club and takes you down the characteristically cobbled Cumberland Walks all the way down to the Pantiles. The A21/M25 are easily accessible for motorists travelling to Tonbridge or Sevenoaks, Gatwick airport is just a 40-minute drive away and there are several blue-flag beaches within an hour's drive of the property. Golfing enthusiasts benefit from the Neville Golf Club, which is situated just 500m away from the development. In coming years, Benhall Mill Road will also benefit from a new GP surgery. Tunbridge Wells or, more formally Royal Tunbridge Wells, became a famous spa town in Regency times when it was frequented by the aristocracy who came to take the waters and enjoy the entertainment organised by Beau Nash. Much of this historic town was developed during that time including the famous Pantiles that now offers a delightful mix of independent shops, bars and restaurants, while the rest of the town also includes high street stores, a variety of eateries, individual shops, hair and beauty salons and a number of luxury and boutique hotels as well as retail parks and a station with trains that will get you to London within an hour.

"We bought this house some 14 years ago when the children were small and anticipated it would be our ‘forever’ family home and so we renovated and updated it accordingly. It included rewiring, replumbing, establishing the basement as a usable space and installing the new bathrooms and creating the architect designed kitchen/diner. We also spent time making sure that the garden was attractive and easy to maintain while providing us with a wonderful space for outdoor activities. It has been a great place to bring up our family but feel it is now time to start a new chapter in our lives. One of the reasons that originally attracted us to the house was the location and being near suitable schools for the children has served us well including outstanding primary schools and the excellent Chatham House and Clarendon Grammar School. Also, we are close to Ellington Park for a walk with the dog as well as the doctor’s surgery and it is only a seven minute walk to Ramsgate station where the high speed rail can whisk you to St Pancras in about an hour and a quarter, while there is easy road access to Canterbury and Dover. It is just a short walk down to Waitrose and the town centre where there are a variety of excellent restaurants as well as numerous bars and cafes and a variety of individual shops and supermarkets. For anyone with young children the sandy beach is within easy reach while commuters can be in London within about an hour and a quarter from Ramsgate station and there is easy road access to Canterbury and Dover.

We absolutely love everything about this wonderful family home and will be very sad to leave but feel it is time to start a new chapter in our lives. The location is excellent because we have all the advantages of living in an historical village property surrounded by countryside yet there is a nearby bus stop, good and easily accessible primary schools and the friendly village amenities. These include a village hall with plenty of regular activities, an award-winning farm shop, a good hairdresser and the local cricket club. There are wonderful places to go for walks with the dog and you can cycle along the Sustrans National Route 17 or stroll down to the Granville pub for a drink or an excellent meal while the nearby village of Bridge has a small supermarket, surgery, dentist, renowned restaurants and a primary school. The house is not far from Canterbury with its UNESCO world heritage site historic buildings, high street stores and individual shops, theatres, universities, bars and restaurants as well as two mainline stations and the high speed train from Canterbury West that will whisk you to London in under an hour. There is also a choice of first class primary, grammar and private schools while for sporting enthusiasts there is the Roundwood Hall Golf Club along Stone Street or the Canterbury Golf club and Polo Farm Sports club on the outskirts of the city. If you enjoy horses, there is also the Bursted Manor riding centre and excellent rides in the 440 acres of Lyminge forest. If you want to go further afield it is very easy to get to the A2 for London or Dover and Folkestone for trips to the Continent.”
