Swanley Village is a picturesque and tranquil Kent village, prized for its traditional charm and excellent commuter connections. Known for its welcoming community feel, the village is home to St Paul’s Church of England Primary School — rated Good by Ofsted — just 0.1 miles away (a 4-minute walk).

For outdoor enjoyment close to home, St Paul’s Park lies only 0.2 miles away, offering a peaceful green space ideal for dog walks, fresh air, and a moment of calm. A little further, just 0.5 miles from the property, The Lamb Inn provides a quintessential English pub experience — think roaring fires in winter, a sunny garden in summer, and a menu of hearty classics.

For family days out, Swanley Park is only 1.1 miles away (around a 4-minute drive) and is a much-loved local attraction. This 60-acre park features a boating lake, miniature railway, adventure playgrounds, café, and open lawns perfect for picnics and games, making it a hit with all ages.

The village benefits from countryside walks right on the doorstep, proximity to major road links including the M25 (J3), A20, and A2, and easy access to Bluewater Shopping Centre, Sevenoaks, and beyond. Swanley’s nearby town centre offers a range of shops, restaurants, and leisure facilities, while the surrounding Kent countryside delivers endless opportunities for outdoor pursuits.

Owners Comments: We have lived at Hogs Orchard for over 28 years, and it has served as a perfect location for London train travel and the M25 for business & leisure trips.
Our house stands out from the crowd as being unique among the Berkeley new homes at the time and featuring the largest living room and corner bath (en-suite).
As our sons have finally started to move on, we now feel the time is right to have a more relaxed coastal location and to entertain grandchildren and the next stage of our lives. We know any family will love our home and will serve you well, taking in the village atmosphere, local walks and village green adjacent to St. Paul's school.
