An imposing detached four bedroom family home set on a plot of just under 0.25 acres (TBV) in highly desirable area, with huge potential for further extension if desired. NO CHAIN
Occupying a generous plot on the ever-prestigious Culverden Park Road in the sought-after St Johns area of Tunbridge Wells, this charming and character-filled detached residence offers well-balanced family accommodation arranged over two floors, blending classic architectural features with modern comforts. Set back from the road, the property is approached via a brick-built driveway providing ample off-road parking and access to an attached garage, all framed by mature hedging that ensures both privacy and kerb appeal.
Upon entering, the home welcomes you through an enclosed entrance porch, finished with tiled flooring and a solid wood front door that opens into a spacious and inviting hallway. Retaining its original wooden flooring and period charm, the entrance hall sets the tone for the rest of the property. From here, the accommodation flows beautifully into the principal reception areas.
The sitting room is a bright and airy space with a double-glazed window to the front and sliding doors that open directly into the sun room-ideal for enjoying the garden views year-round. The sun room itself features tiled flooring, double-glazed sliding doors leading out to the rear patio, and modern ceiling spotlights, creating a lovely transition between inside and out. A separate dining room with a double-glazed front window and original wooden floors provides a flexible space that has also been used as a bedroom, complete with a sleek, modern walk-in shower-perfect for accommodating multi-generational living.
The heart of the home is the spacious kitchen/diner, where contemporary cabinetry, solid oak and Corian work surfaces, and high-quality fittings meet practicality and style. The kitchen is well-equipped with an eye-level oven, gas hob, and plumbing for appliances, while the dining area offers bespoke built-in larder storage and a pleasant outlook to the rear garden. From here, a rear lobby provides direct access to the garden and internal access to the garage and boiler room.
A thoughtfully designed cloakroom on the ground floor features a concealed cistern WC, vanity unit with wash hand basin, and stylish tiled splashbacks. Upstairs, the galleried landing is flooded with natural light from a front-facing window and provides access to four well-proportioned bedrooms, all with double glazing, radiators, and wooden flooring, some of which also feature picture rails and original period detailing. A modern shower room serves the upper floor, offering a sleek walk-in shower, WC, and wash hand basin, all finished with tiled walls, ceiling spotlights, and dual frosted windows.
Externally, the property continues to impress. To the front, the brick-paved driveway is complemented by a neatly maintained lawn and mature planting. To the rear, the extensive garden is mainly laid to lawn, interspersed with mature shrubs, flowering borders, and well-established trees. An Indian stone patio provides the perfect setting for outdoor dining and entertaining, all within a secure and private environment enclosed by fencing and hedging.
Completing the property is a single garage with an electric roller door, frosted window, consumer unit, and wall-mounted boiler, providing both storage and utility space.
This exceptional home is ideally situated close to the wide-ranging amenities of St Johns, including supermarkets, independent shops, bakeries, and well-regarded pubs and restaurants. The location also enjoys proximity to excellent recreational facilities and highly acclaimed schools, including grammar options. The town centre of Tunbridge Wells, with its renowned Pantiles, elegant architecture, and rail connections to London and the South Coast, is just a short distance away, making this a truly enviable place to call home.
