A spacious detached four bedroom family home set in a third of acre (TBC), backing onto woodlands of Camden Park and offering ample scope for extension and modernisation.
A Spacious Family Residence in a Prime Tunbridge Wells Setting - Backing Woodland, with Exceptional Versatility and Seclusion
Situated in the sought-after Hawkenbury area on the desirable southern fringes of Royal Tunbridge Wells, this beautifully proportioned four-bedroom detached family home offers expansive accommodation, exceptional privacy, and a rare woodland backdrop. Set within mature grounds extending to approximately 0.3 acres, the property enjoys peace and seclusion while remaining conveniently close to the town centre, mainline station, and a wide array of excellent schools.
Upon approach, the property is framed by an attractive in-and-out driveway, providing off-road parking for several vehicles and leading to a generous double garage with electric doors. A glazed door flanked by side panels opens into a spacious entrance porch, providing an ideal welcome with panelled walls and a useful coat cupboard. From here, a glazed inner door leads to the main entrance hall, where three large built-in cupboards and an understairs storage area offer ample space for everyday essentials.
The principal living spaces are impressively proportioned and ideal for both formal entertaining and relaxed family living. The sitting room is a standout feature, boasting a wood-panelled ceiling, a charming brick fireplace with an electric log burner, and dual sliding doors that open into the garden and the adjoining conservatory. The conservatory itself enjoys a peaceful outlook and direct access to the rear garden. A separate study offers the perfect environment for working from home, benefitting from views over the rear garden.
The dining room is characterful with wood-panelled ceilings and a connecting hatch to the kitchen, creating a versatile flow for entertaining. The kitchen is comprehensively fitted with a wide range of wall and base units, granite worktops, tiled splashbacks, and quality appliances including a gas hob with extractor, double eye-level ovens, and space for a dishwasher and fridge/freezer. A large pantry and utility room provide further practicality, with space for laundry appliances and direct access to both the garage and garden.
Upstairs, the first-floor landing is brightened by a side window and offers access to the loft via a pull-down ladder. Four well-appointed bedrooms provide excellent accommodation, all of which benefit from fitted wardrobes and built-in storage. The luxurious family shower room has been recently refitted to a high standard, featuring a large walk-in double shower with waterfall head and separate handheld attachment, a contemporary vanity unit, WC, heated towel rail, and recessed spotlights.
The rear garden is a particular highlight - exceptionally private and mainly laid to lawn, framed by mature hedging, trees, and a beautiful rockery. It enjoys a tranquil outlook over adjoining woodland, creating a rare sense of peace and seclusion. There is also a patio terrace for outdoor dining, an outside tap, and gated side access.
The double garage is equipped with electric up-and-over doors, full power, lighting, meters, and ample additional storage. A rear lobby provides convenient access from the garage directly into the house and garden.
This fine home occupies an enviable location just over a mile from Tunbridge Wells mainline station, with fast rail services into London Bridge, Waterloo East and Charing Cross in under an hour. The vibrant town centre offers a mix of boutique and high street shopping, acclaimed restaurants and cafes, as well as the historic Pantiles, renowned for its seasonal markets and live events. Families will appreciate the excellent schooling options nearby, including highly regarded state and independent schools for all age groups.
This is a rare opportunity to acquire a substantial home in one of Tunbridge Wells' most desirable neighbourhoods, offering exceptional indoor and outdoor living with easy access to all the town has to offer.
