Orchard Place is apple of homebuyer’s eye

Opportunities to purchase one of the stunning new George Wimpey family homes at Orchard Place near Sevenoaks are disappearing fast – with just three outstanding properties remaining for sale at the Kent development.

Nestling in an exclusive enclave of the picturesque, traditional village of Otford, the development is in a superb location for those wanting all the benefits of a rural lifestyle while maintaining excellent commutability to London and the major towns, cities and ports in the South East.

Homebuyers can choose from the four-bedroom ‘Groombridge’ from £419,995, and the sumptuous five-bedroom ‘Leigh’ starting at £649,995, with both superbly-appointed family homes bordered by mature trees and an area of outstanding natural beauty.

The ‘Leigh’, is a magnificent executive home, characterised by spacious living areas across three storeys and a luxurious master suite occupying the entire top floor, boasting a walk-in wardrobe/dressing area and an amazing double en-suite with separate shower and bath and side-by-side sinks.

The ‘Groombridge’ delivers spacious family living on all three levels. On the ground floor, buyers can enjoy a spacious lounge with French doors to the rear garden, a thoughtfully designed open-plan kitchen with breakfast/dining area, and guest cloakroom.

Upstairs, the landing leads to three bedrooms, one with en-suite shower room and built-in wardrobes, and the family bathroom. A spacious fourth bedroom, which could alternatively be used as a playroom or a study, can be found on the top floor.

As with the ‘Leigh’ the ‘Groombridge’ enjoys a high standard specification including central heating, double glazing and a fitted kitchen with built-in oven, hob and hood.

Both these ideal homes enjoy the very best location; Otford is the quintessential English village centred around a scenic duck pond – while for professionals commuting to the city of London or travelling extensively in the region, it has superb transport connections by road and rail.

London Victoria is approximately 40 minutes from Otford station by rail, while buses run regularly between the well-served village and Sevenoaks. The M25 is just five miles away, while Central London is 25 miles by road.

Close by are fine shops, coaching inns and restaurants, a primary school, an historic church and a medical centre, while a superstore can be found just outside the village.

Sevenoaks, four miles from the development, offers a wider range shopping and leisure opportunities and a choice of schools for children of all ages. There are also plenty of outdoor activities near Orchard Place, including countryside walks, cycling and golf.
