Location

Whilst enjoying a fine secluded location, the farm has easy access to nearby Paddock Wood and Tonbridge, both with mainline rail connections to London. Matfield village is well known for its picturesque green and has two well regarded pubs (The Poet being very restaurant orientated) and a butchers store. Paddock Wood offers a full range of social, recreational and educational amenities (including a Waitrose), with Tunbridge Wells offering more extensive choices, including shopping, recreational and entertainment facilities with a wide variety of restaurants, cafés, bars, cinemas (Trinity Arts in town and Odeon outside at Knights Park) and two theatres.

There is also a wide range of private schools in the area (including Tonbridge School, Sevenoaks School and Kent College, Beechwood and The Schools at Summerhill) and state schools as well, including the excellent grammar schools in Tonbridge and Tunbridge Wells.

Description

Along a private farm drive, in a secluded position away from roads, Tudeley Brook Stables is well located within an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty in a hamlet of mainly residential properties, formerly comprising Badsell Park Farm.

Full planning permission has been granted by Tunbridge Wells Borough Council - Ref. 24/00315/FULL, for the conversion and partial demolition of stables to a dwelling house. This was granted subject to conditions on 28th March 2024. The approved plans show a small reduction of the existing building with one of the six bays (at the north easterly end) and the small wooden structure (at the south westerly end) removed.

The proposed accommodation extends to about 3,659 sq ft/340m² mainly on the ground/mezzanine floors, with a first floor principal bedroom suite - see the floor plans for the details.

Outside, there is a total plot of approximately 0.84 acres, comprising garden and agricultural land.

Directions

The postcode of the property is TN12 7EW. From Tunbridge Wells head north east on the Pembury Road (the A264) passing over the A21. At the traffic lights proceed ahead along the Pembury bypass (the A228) which connects to the Maidstone Road. Look out for the junction with Crittenden Road on your right hand side and turn here and the entrance to Badsell Park Farm will be seen on your right hand side. Proceed along the private farm drive and Tudley Brook Stables will be seen on your left hand side, having passed the converted oast house and through a pair of gates. This is the last but one property along the no through drive through the hamlet.
