Bet you can’t guess the very niche horsey facility this home has? Believe me when I say, you don’t find an equestrian property with one of these every day.
The Coach House is a five-bed home off a rural lane in Chart Sutton, just an eight-minute drive from the neighbouring village of Staplehurst in Kent. With a newly-opened superstore, chemist, bank and solicitor, you can enjoy the best of both worlds – a rural home within easy reach of all you need.
Staplehurst mainline railway station runs a direct service to London Charing Cross. The service takes a little over an hour.
The Coach House is 13 minutes from junction 8 of the M20 for the M25 and Dover – the port is 52 minutes from the door.
The market town of Cranbrook is 17 minutes away. The drive to Maidstone is 15 minutes.
Your pick of local equestrian centres includes Duckhurst Farm (six minutes), Cobham Manor (18 minutes) and White Horse Farm (36 minutes).
Go cross-country schooling at Bonfleur XC (11 minutes).
