Location
Westerham is a charming and historic market town nestled at the foot of the North Downs, in the heart of the Kent countryside. Rich in heritage, the town is best known for its connections to Sir Winston Churchill, whose former home at Chartwell is just minutes away. The attractive town centre offers a variety of independent shops, boutiques, cafés, pubs, and restaurants, many set around a picturesque green with a statue of Churchill at its centre.

Westerham offers the perfect blend of countryside living and convenient access to London with excellent road connections, being only 4.2 miles from Junction 5 of the M25. Sevenoaks and Oxted Stations also both offer fast services to central London. The area is also well served by a selection of excellent schools, both state and independent, making it a popular choice for families.

Surrounded by rolling hills, open countryside, and several National Trust properties, Westerham is ideal for those who enjoy walking, cycling, and exploring the outdoors — all while remaining close to the amenities and culture of a thriving small town.
