If you like the idea of living near a picturesque village straight out of a postcard, where locals gather to play cricket on a lush green, then Bearsted is the ultimate destination for you. You can reach the village green from this property in around 18 minutes (0.8 miles) on foot. It's a place where you can indulge in the finest dining options, including the Michelin-listed Fish on the Green and Oak on the Green - a gastropub that boasts a wide selection of ales. The White Horse, a large pub with roaring log fires, is situated just across the green, making it a perfect spot for a relaxing meal. Parents will be delighted to know that both local schools, Roseacre and Madginford, have been rated outstanding and good by Ofsted. If you're a golf enthusiast, the village offers the convenience of an 18-hole course and if you enjoy countryside walks you can access public footpaths that connect to the North Downs Way a few moments away. Commuters will appreciate the direct services to London Victoria, taking just over an hour from Bearsted station which is just 3 minutes (0.9 miles) away by car, or high speed services to London St Pancras in 19 minutes from Ebbsfleet station which can be reached by car in as little as 24 minutes.

Owners Comments: Sarah and I initially moved to the area (only 150 yards from here) due to the fantastic primary schools, having three adolescent children between us. As they grew we decided we needed more space, but still wanted to take advantage of all the local amenities that are within walking distance, including the railway station. Also Importantly for both of us was the ease of access to the A20 & M20.
The key thing for Sarah was that she was brought up in Bearsted, family still live here, and we both know and love the area. Key for me housewise was not being on an estate, the large rooms and the SW facing balcony and courtyard.
