Seller Insight 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 the popular and exclusive village of Shipbourne. As well as being in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty the picturesque village centre is also in a Conservation and Special Landscape Area and is reputed to be one of the most sought after villages in Kent. There is a large village green looked after by Fairlawn Estates, an historic church and a charming village hall at the end of a Kentish Hall House as well as tennis courts, a good primary school, an excellent weekly farmer’s market and the well-known Chaser Inn and restaurant. While, for golfing enthusiasts, the Poult Wood golf club is only half a mile from Dene Park. 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 that is a junction for two railway lines so it is easy to take a train to places in Sussex, Kent and London while trains to London Bridge take about half an hour or 42 minutes to Charing Cross. There are excellent local educational facilities with a number of primary schools including Slade Primary rated Outstanding by Ofsted, several Outstanding grammar schools including the high achieving  Judd School for boys and Tonbridge Grammar School for girls with specialist status including performing arts, maths and ICT, music and sports.
