1, Church Green, Hollingbourne, ME17 1HW

Discreetly positioned behind the magnificent 14thcentury All Saints Church, 1 Church Green occupies a truly special setting within Hollingbourne’s sought-after Upper Street Conservation Area.

Surrounded by the rolling beauty of the Kent Downs National Landscape, it offers a rare combination of architectural character, village charm and exceptional countryside access.

The house sits effortlessly within its historic surroundings, with mellow brick elevations, handcrafted oak framing and a traditional clay-tiled roof complementing the neighbouring church and ancient ragstone walls.

Designed with an unwavering commitment to traditional craftsmanship, it captures the spirit and authenticity of a centuries-old Kentish home while offering comfortable modern living.

Inside, the atmosphere is warm, inviting and rich in character.

Exposed timbers, handmade brickwork, generous fireplaces and leaded windows create interiors full of depth and charm, while glimpses of the church tower reinforce the property’s unique connection to its setting.

The accommodation flows naturally throughout, centred around a superb sitting room with an impressive inglenook fireplace, a fabulous kitchen/breakfast room which has been updated by the current owners, a separate dining room, office and cloakroom on the ground floor.

To the first floor the bedrooms are beautifully appointed with vaulted ceilings and exposed trusses.

There is a master bedroom with en suite shower room, four further bedrooms and a separate family bathroom.

Established gardens surround the house on three sides, providing colour, privacy and year-round interest.

Mature planting frames the property beautifully, ensuring the house remains the focal point from every perspective.

The principal plot extends to approximately 0.28 acres, further enhanced by the exclusive use of an additional third of an acre under a formal lease agreement.

Formerly part of the original village green and protected in trust, this remarkable parcel of land creates a unique extension to the gardens, bringing the total grounds to just under two-thirds of an acre.

Framed by the church grounds, historic buildings and the surrounding downs, it offers an extraordinary sense of space and heritage.

Hollingbourne is widely regarded as one of Kent’s most desirable villages, offering a highly regarded primary school, community café, renowned public houses, a local vineyard within walking distance and an active village community.

Beyond, an extensive network of footpaths and bridleways connects directly to both the North Downs Way and the ancient Pilgrims’ Way, placing some of the county’s finest countryside quite literally on the doorstep.

Rich in character, history and craftsmanship, 1 Church Green presents a rare opportunity to acquire a distinctive village house in one of Kent’s most picturesque and historic settings, where heritage, landscape and lifestyle come together in perfect harmony.
