This delightful home is situated in an extremely desirable location, close to the Five Bells Inn/Restaurant and opposite vineyards in a bucolic North Downs hamlet.

The house is located along Canterbury Road in the North Downs hamlet of East Brabourne which is well known as the location of vineyards, a delightful 12th Century church and the highly regarded Five Bells Inn/Restaurant. The area is part of the Kent Downs National Landscape and designated an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.

Brabourne primary school is nearby and wider facilities in the neighbouring villages of Brabourne Lees and Smeeth including a store/post office, pubs and a garage.
