LOCAL AREA
With the picturesque scenery of the Kentish Weald stretching out around you, and the rolling hills of the South Downs (a designated Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty) close by, it’s easy to see why Kent is called The Garden of England when you call The Pippins home.
The village of Hamstreet boasts a supermarket, newsagent, hairdressers, school, medical centre, restaurant and a café in the garden centre. There’s local football, tennis, netball and bowls, with golf and fishing nearby. Orlestone Forest and Ham Street Woods Nature Reserve are only a few moments away.
Ashford, as well as being a major transport hub, is great for shopping, with a choice of malls, a range of intriguing independent stores and a Designer Outlet with over 90 top name brands at impressive discounts. With excellent bars, clubs, restaurants and a cinema, it’s a great town for a night out too.
This is a part of the world full of great places to visit including Godinton House and Leeds Castle which both make a great day out. Historic Canterbury with its cathedral and Dover’s magnificent castle are also within easy distance.
Living at The Pippins, you have some of the South Coast’s greatest beaches and resorts at your disposal. From the cobbled streets of Rye and beaches of Camber Sands to the magnificent seafood of Whitstable and the cannons of Deal Castle, there’s so much to discover.

WHAT IS SHARED OWNERSHIP?
Shared Ownership is a more affordable way to have the security and stability of owning your own home. Shared Ownership is a government backed part buy/part rent scheme designed to help you take that first step on the property ladder. The scheme enables buyers to purchase a share of the value of the home - this is usually between 25 to 75 percent of the value of the property - and pay a subsidised rent on the remaining portion. You have the option to buy a bigger share in the property at a later date (known as Staircasing).
Legal & General Affordable Homes are a Registered Provider offering these apartments for sale on a Shared Ownership basis. We are creating communities to live, grow and flourish and are committed to removing the stress and anxiety associated with moving house, whilst delivering customer satisfaction and quality new homes.
