This fantastic house has undergone a complete renovation by the current owners to provide a flawlessly finished home that you could move straight in and enjoy.
Breathtakingly beautiful, showcasing its period charm, it also delivers a family friendly style of living.

It's striking exterior delivers plenty of kerb appeal with a canopied balcony with decorative railings and traditional Victorian windows.

A covered part glazed entrance door to the side welcomes you into a wide hallway with patterned tiled flooring and a fitted cupboard to keep the space clutter free.

To the left, light pours into the elegant living room through its part shuttered period windows. It is an exceptionally welcoming space with stylish décor, warm wooden effect flooring, a period fireplace and fitted cabinetry that wraps generously around the room.

At the rear is the fantastic open plan kitchen/dining/family room, which is a very social space, offering plenty of room for family living and entertaining. It is beautifully finished and fully equipped, as you would expect from a house of this quality, with integrated Samsung appliances, contrasting fitted cabinetry topped with Silestone Quartz and a part glazed dresser unit. Fitted corner banquette seating with storage below adds to the relaxed feel of the space and there is plenty of room for a large table and additional seating. It also benefits from access into the cellar below, which provides useful storage space.

Opening to the side is the utility room with further fitted cupboards, the hall housing unit offering stacking space for two appliances. There is even the potential in the base level cupboard to create dog access from the front courtyard.

At the far end of the kitchen is the useful guest cloakroom and a part glazed door providing access into the courtyard garden.

Returning to the hallway and climbing the stairs to the first floor, the elegant drawing room is at the front. It spreads graciously across the width of the house and enjoys a beautiful bay window whose doors open onto its sit on balcony. A spectacular marble fireplace adds character and warmth to the room in the colder months. It is a very versatile space, as it could also be used as a generous fourth bedroom.

Next door is a room currently set up as a nursery but, if your needs require it, it will also work perfectly as a home office.

Opposite, the beautiful principal bedroom suite has graceful proportions that give a very tranquil feeling. Soothing tones and a stylish en-suite bathroom with a shower over the bath make it a restful retreat. There are fitted alcove cupboards and a large window flooding the space with light.

Up a further flight of stairs to the second floor, there are two bedrooms, both of which are generous doubles with fitted cupboards and large windows offering spectacular views.

The rear bedroom benefits from a modern en-suite shower room and a separate bathroom completes the floor.

Outside the wide courtyard garden is wonderfully low maintenance and a beautiful sun trap. It is perfect for summer dining and is fully enclosed by a mix of walled and contemporary fenced perimeters, making it safe for children and pets.

This fabulous period home sits on a sought-after road, a stone's throw from the bustling town centre's restaurants, shops, and cafes. With the mainline station and the green open spaces of Tunbridge Wells Common also a short walk away, it really offers the perfect location. A must see!
