Chelsfield, a large village in south-east London in the Borough of Bromley, was recorded in the 1086 Domesday Book and consists of the historic Chelsfield Village and New Chelsfield – the latter dates from the first half of the 20th century when the Waring family sold some of its estate. Some parts of the local St Martin of Tours parish church date back to the 12th century.
It's now largely a commuter town because of its excellent communications with Central London. Attractions and landmarks include the Bethlem Museum of the Mind, the Chislehurst Caves, the Churchill Theatre and Down House (Charles Darwin's residence).

Kent, romantically described as 'the garden of England', is a coastal county in the England's south eastern corner. Because it borders Greater London, it is classed as one of the home counties. It contains the Weald and the North Downs. Kent's county town is Maidstone. Other large cities include Gillingham, Chatham, Ashford, Royal Tunbridge Wells, Margate, Dartford and Gravesend. Kent has many port towns including Dover, Folkestone and Margate. Adjacent counties include East Sussex, Surrey, Essex (across the River Thames) and, as stated earlier, Greater London. Curiously, Kent used to contain an enclave north of the River Thames until 1965 which equates now to the E16 postcode area and which has now been reclassified as part of the London Borough of Newham. JMW Turner, the great impressionist painter, spent part of his childhood in Margate and regularly returned there in later life. The coastline of East Kent is regarded as the inspiration for many of his works, particularly his fantastic seascapes.

What are the conveyancing costs?
Chelsfield Conveyancing Solicitor fees dramatically vary depending on whether you approach an online conveyancing solicitor, a high street conveyancer or housing solicitors introduced by your estate agent.
The actual conveyancing costs, outside of the legal work, should be fixed as they are set including:
For buyers: stamp duty, land registration, property searches, ID searches and leasehold charges (if buying a leasehold property).
For sellers: office copies, title plan and management information (if selling a leasehold property).
It is important to make sure when budgeting the costs of moving home that you factor in all of the above conveyancing costs and ensure you get a fixed fee conveyancing quote from your chosen local solicitors or licensed conveyancer.
Whether you're a cash buyer or buying with a mortgage solicitors are key to the whole process, making the right choice critically important.
Fast, good and cheap conveyancing
Read our guides on how you can get all three:
Should you get a property survey if you're a cash buyer?
We always recommend that property buyers get a RICS home buyers survey to find out if the property you're looking to buy has any suspicions of defects such as subsidence and damp.
Anyone buying with a mortgage must book and pay for a mortgage valuation, carried out on behalf of the lender. This survey, although never as thorough as a RICS home buyers survey, at least considers the condition of the property even if only passingly.
There is no requirement to book any kind of survey if you're buying with cash, however unless you are yourself a property expert, you risk many things going wrong. Defects like subsidence can cost upwards of 10s of £1,000s to rectify and you would be passing up on gathering powerful evidence that could be used to bargain with the seller for a reduction in price if, say, any defects were found.
You should also consider the future resale of the property. Anyone buying with a mortgage will themselves have to get a mortgage valuation and a large percentage of buyers do organise RIC home buyers surveys. By getting such a survey before you buy the property, you are eliminating much of the possibility of getting a nasty surprise later, if there are any defects. It may even be that they are so bad that you choose to pull out of the purchase, on the grounds of the survey report.
