Description
Eylesden Court is next to the village green, reputedly one of the oldest cricket grounds in Kent. The estate was built in the spacious grounds of a former preparatory school and enjoys an open parkland setting with an orchard and a splendid backdrop of oast-houses and Holy Cross Church. The properties are arranged in three distinct areas; the estate’s own ‘village green’, a scented garden and the orchard. There is a croquet lawn for the summer months and an allotment garden for the market gardeners.
Bearsted Green, with its lovely Georgian and Victorian architecture, has shops, restaurants and two pubs. There are clubs and societies within the village and a ramblers’ paradise on the doorstep, with the Pilgrims’ Way and North Downs Way passing close by. Bearsted station offers a regular train service to London Victoria, which can be reached in just over an hour, and a short drive of 30 minutes is all it takes to put you at the seaside. The incredible 13th-Century Leeds Castle, most famous for once being home to Henry VIII's first wife, Catherine of Aragon, is only four miles away from the estate.
Cognatum Estates maintains, repairs and insures all the buildings, arranges the window cleaning and refuse collection and tends to the gardens and grounds thereby freeing owners and residents from these responsibilities. There is a personal alarm system in each property and resident estate managers are on hand to provide support and help when needed, making this an ideal 'Lock Up & Leave' property.
A guest suite provides comfortable accommodation for family and friends, there are allotments for residents use and a minibus is available for shopping and other trips.
The cost of providing these services is shared equally between all properties. There are no restrictions on owning a property except that one resident must be over 55 years of age.
150 year lease (from 2004). No ground rent.
