For Sale4 Bedroom Detached House in Herons Way. Pembury Tunbridge Wells£850,000

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.
