Description
The Wagon Lodge is nestled in a delightful and sought-after rural position within a "farmstead" setting of five other homes, yet is so convenient, being just two miles from Tonbridge station and ideally placed for schools.
Formerly an agricultural building housing the wagons for the working horses on what was a traditional Kentish hop farm, this light-filled family home offers well presented accommodation with large windows and high vaulted beamed ceilings to the principal rooms.
A good sized garden wraps around the house and a wide driveway to the front provides parking space for several cars in front of a attached garage. There is a useful separate studio/office in the garden, which is mainly laid to lawn interspersed with mature trees and shrubs and has a large fenced pond, shared with a neighbouring property.
The property is approached from Postern Lane via a wonderful long rural driveway through orchards, and is positioned opposite a field. A network of footpaths is accessible in the immediate vicinity, enabling a walk to the popular "Poacher and Partridge" pub in under a mile. It also enjoys private access via the Tonbridge end of Postern Lane, allowing for a quick journey to the shopping amenities in approximately 1.3 miles.
Location
The Wagon Lodge enjoys an unexpectedly rural position in a small community of properties surrounded by farmland within an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. The village of Tudeley is well known for its historic church (a walk of approximately 1.4 miles) which is a local landmark, known for its unique stained glass windows designed by Marc Chagall. There is access to a network of footpaths within the immediate vicinity of the property, and Tudeley Woods Nature Reserve is within 4 miles.
The centre of Tonbridge town is approximately 1.3 miles, via Postern Lane, Tunbridge Wells and Sevenoaks are approximately 7 miles and 9 miles respectively. Tonbridge offers excellent facilities including Marks and Spencer, Sainsburys and Waitrose, The Angel Centre Sports hall offering a wide selection of activities, High Street shopping, cafes, bars and restaurants as well as the mainline station with a fast and frequent service to London Charing Cross, London Bridge and Cannon Street, with journey times from about 38 minutes.
State and private schools: The area is served by an excellent choice of well regarded schools including village primaries in Capel and Brenchley and the sought-after Kent grammar schools in Tonbridge, Tunbridge Wells and Cranbrook. Independent senior schools include Tonbridge for Boys, Sevenoaks, Kent College (Pembury) and Benenden for girls, with many preparatory options including: The Schools at Somerhill in Tudeley (approximately 1.4 miles), Hilden Grange (Tonbridge), Holmewood House (Langton Green), Marlborough House and St Ronan’s (Hawkhurst) and Dulwich Prep (Cranbrook).
Communications: The M25 can be accessed via the A21 (approximately 2 miles), linking to other motorway networks, Gatwick and Heathrow Airports and the Channel Tunnel/ports in less than an hour.
