Spacious 3 bedroom detached home on a corner plot in peaceful St James's, Tunbridge Wells. Recently modernised with new roof, boiler (2024), windows, en-suite, and open-plan kitchen/diner. Features lounge, conservatory, low-maintenance gardens, larger-than-average plot, and garage.
A good sized three bedroom detached family home occupying a corner plot in this popular and peaceful development in the St James's quarter of Tunbridge Wells. The house has been the beneficiary of an extensive modernisation programme in recent years including roof works, a new gas boiler in 2024, the instillation of a number of new windows, the addition of an en-suite facility and the opening up, re-modelling and fitting of a new kitchen/dining area. The house also enjoys a spacious principal lounge with a recently fitted conservatory. There are three good sized bedrooms. The gardens are essentially low maintenance and certainly larger than many of the nearby neighbours, as is the house itself. The property also includes a single garage approached via a shared driveway to the rear. A glance at the photographs will give an indication as to the sheer quality of this proposition and we do encourage all parties to make an immediate appointment to view.
