Located in the St. Peters quarter of Tunbridge Wells and offering ready access to Dunorlan Park and level access to the town centre and main railway station (approximately 15 -20 mins walk), an impressively designed and beautifully presented light, airy and spacious two bedroom, two bathroom raised-ground floor apartment. Well suited to professional people or downsizers alike, Marnock House is a purpose built block of 24 various sized apartments with secure parking, a lift and a small communal wooded garden - built by Silver Homes in 2006. Apartment 6 is quietly located at the end of the corridor on the right-hand side of the raised ground floor with unobstructed dual aspect views. We understand the property was originally the show house of the development and even now, a glance at the attached photographs will give an indication as to the high quality of presentation within. Beyond a most attractive large reception hall there is an excellent sized and contemporary styled kitchen/dining room with a further and separate dual aspect (easterly and southerly facing) sitting room affording views over neighbouring trees, roof tops and Dunorlan Fields in the distance. The property has two good sized double bedrooms - one of which has a large en-suite bathroom facility - and a further family shower room. Externally, the property has use of a single allocated parking space to the rear of the block in the secure gated car park, as well as private visitors parking at the front of the block, alongside a good sized lock up storage cupboard in the undercroft parking area. High specification properties in this location have traditionally generated excellent interest. Given this property is also offered as top of chain we consider it essential that interested parties make an immediate appointment to view.
