Property in Sevenoaks Canterbury Royal Tunbridge Wells Maidstone Ashford Broadstairs Langton Green Hollingbourne Chilham Aldington PROPERTY IN SEVENOAKS Sevenoaks is a charming market town deriving its name in around 800AD from an ancient chapel built near seven oak trees. Local Knowle House, built in the 15th century, helped Sevenoaks grow. It is located very close to the M25 and has good access to the M26/M20 and with its station providing very fast and frequent trains to London, it is a popular location for many commuters with high property prices reflecting the demand. There are good schools, particularly the independent Sevenoaks School and good local shopping and other amenities such as, pubs, restaurants, a local theatre and one of the oldest cricket grounds in England at “The Vine”, also having seven old oak trees until the great storm of 1987! As well as the attractions of Knowle House and the historic Ightham Mote (both National Trust owned), the local countryside, partly associated with the North Downs and the River Derwent and several lakes, provides a significant draw to incoming residents. As well as Sevenoaks itself, the many attractive villages close by such as Riverhead, Otford and Shoreham provide an abundance of older and more contemporary residential property styles to buy and rent, whatever your budget.
