Property description & features

  • Tenure: Freehold
  • Shipbourne, Tonbridge 3 bed detached house
  • Charming detached home with beautiful partially walled gardens
  • Exceptional location adjoining the magnificent Fairlawne country estate
  • Gorgeous far reaching views and countryside walks
  • Superb position within popular village with school, church and pub
  • Excellent communication links from nearby Sevenoaks and Tonbridge
  • A rarely available gem not to be missed
The location of this property is second-to-none. It backs onto the 1000 acre Fairlawn Estate, in the highly acclaimed village of Shipbourne in an AONB and nestles in about a third of an acre of beautifully designed gardens. It is rare for properties to be available for sale in Shipbourne and the last time this house came on the market was in 1981, so it is a blank canvas waiting for new owners to create their own unique country home. The house is approached along a drive leading to a spacious car parking area, a garage and the front door. This opens into the hall with a cloakroom and access to the dual aspect dining room with built in bookshelves, access to the rear garden and the kitchen that opens into a lean-to style conservatory. The well-proportioned sitting room includes a brick surround fireplace, while on the first floor there is a family bathroom and three bedrooms with outstanding rural views.

Outside there is a terrace flanked by superb rose beds and sweeping lawns interspersed with wonderful shrubs, flower beds and trees while a pathway winds its way to a charming wood framed summerhouse.

What the Owner says:
I have loved living here for the past 44 years and enjoyed creating the garden and am only having to leave for health reasons. The picturesque village centre is also in a Conservation Area and a Special Landscape Area and is reputed to be one of the most sought after villages in Kent. There is a large village green, 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 Chaser Inn and restaurant. Buses take you to the surrounding towns and villages including nearby Plaxtol with its good primary school, pub and village store/post office as well as a cricket and tennis club.
It is only a couple of miles to a useful parade of shops with two supermarkets and a little over four miles to Tonbridge with its excellent schools, shops, bars, restaurants and retail outlets. Trains from Tonbridge station can whisk you to London in just over half an hour while the vibrant and historic town of Sevenoaks is only a short drive with the famous Knole House and park and a mainline station with trains to Charing Cross and Blackfriars.

Each reading is based on the highest predicted speed of any major broadband network for services that deliver the download speeds. The following are the different readings that we may display:

    Basic: Up to 30 Mbit/s
    Super-fast: Between 30 Mbit/s and 300 Mbit/s

    Mobile phone signal availability and predicted strength: obtained from Ofcom on April 8, 2024

    Mobile signal predictions are provided by the four UK mobile network operators: EE, O2, Three and Vodafone. Predictions can vary significantly from the coverage you may actually experience as a result of local factors (especially terrain). Ofcom has tested the actual coverage provided in various locations around the UK to help ensure that these predictions are reasonable. The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:

    Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
    Red: One bar, reliable signal unlikely
    Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
    Green: Three bars, likely to have good coverage and receive a data rate to support basic web services
