GUIDE PRICE £425,000 - £450,000. A Beautifully Appointed Period Home in a Prime Tunbridge Wells Location
Behind a charming picket fence and nestled within a picturesque, cottage-style front garden, this well presented, period property effortlessly blends timeless character with modern comforts.
Step through a solid wood front door into the welcoming entrance hall, where elegant herringbone flooring sets the tone for the beautifully curated interiors. The staircase rises gracefully to the first floor, while natural light enhances the warm and inviting atmosphere.
To the front of the home, the lounge is a serene retreat, featuring a striking double-glazed bay window with bespoke plantation shutters. A log burner, set on a stone hearth with a classic wooden surround, provides a stylish focal point, complemented by the continuation of herringbone flooring and a traditional radiator.
To the rear, the dining room offers a versatile entertaining space, with a large window overlooking the garden, built-in shelving and a cupboard to the side of the chimney breast. Two generous under-stairs cupboards offer excellent storage, one of which currently accommodates a fridge/freezer, all while retaining the room's elegant charm.
The kitchen is beautifully appointed with Shaker-style cabinetry and wooden work surfaces, enhanced by a tiled splashback. Thoughtfully designed with practical living in mind, it includes a stainless-steel sink with mixer tap and drainer, integrated electric oven and microwave, gas hob, and space for both a dishwasher and washing machine. Tiled flooring and recessed ceiling spotlights ensure a fresh and contemporary feel, with windows to both the side and rear bathing the space in natural light.
Upstairs, the first floor landing provides access to the loft, which is part-boarded for storage, and is illuminated by ceiling spotlights.
There are two double bedrooms, both stylishly finished. The principal bedroom features a front-facing double-glazed window with plantation shutters and ceiling spotlights, while the second bedroom to the rear enjoys a peaceful garden view and benefits from an airing cupboard housing the combi boiler.
The bathroom is both functional and inviting, comprising a full-sized bath with mixer tap and handheld spray, electric shower over, WC, and a wash hand basin set within a contemporary vanity unit. Tiled splashbacks, a frosted rear window, and a vinyl floor complete the space.
Outside, the rear garden is a tranquil haven with a gravelled seating area, raised planted borders filled with colourful annuals, mature shrubs, and a flourishing rose bush. There is also convenient side access.
Situated on the desirable south-easterly side of Tunbridge Wells, this home is ideally placed for both town and country living.
