Offered as top of chain and requiring modernisation and refurbishment in some areas, a two bedroom mid terraced Victorian property in the St. James quarter of Tunbridge Wells. As currently arranged the property has a lounge accessible directly from the street a further kitchen/breakfast room and a recently refurbished downstairs shower room. There are two good sized double bedrooms on the first floor and the property has a surprisingly large lower maintenance rear garden given its very central location. A glance at the attached photographs will give an indication as to the work required on the property but we consider it very fairly priced and would encourage all interested parties to make an immediate appointment to view to avoid disappointment.

To this end it has ready access not only to nearby Grosvenor & Hilbert Park and High Brooms railway station but also the town centre along the aforementioned colourful and popular Camden Road with its run of primarily independent retailers, restaurants and bars. The Royal Victoria place shopping centre and main line railway station are a little further distant with another run of further independent offerings being found between Mount Pleasant and the Pantiles. The town has a good number of highly regarded schools at all levels, two main line railway stations offering fast and frequent services to London termini and the South Coast as well as two theatres and a number of sports and social clubs.
