Description
An attractive family home located in one of Tunbridge Wells' most desirable residential areas on the western edge of the town, well placed for Holmewood House School in Langton Green. The Common is within half-a-mile, the mainline station and the historic end of the town, including the Pantiles, are approximately a mile.
Eversley dates back to the 1930s and has been carefully renovated by our client and features much of the original quality craftsmanship. The property is set in an elevated position within an established garden which wraps around to all sides, and enjoys far reaching views to the south.
The impressive wisteria clad front entrance opens into a welcoming oak panelled hallway with oak flooring and through to two well proportioned principal reception rooms. The dining room is notable for the French polished oak panelling and original built-in Douglas Fir crockery cupboards, complete with a clever hatch and servery draw linking through to the kitchen. The sitting room has a marble fireplace with a coal effect electric fire, and an anteroom opening out to a large covered garden terrace to the side.
The impressive bespoke modern fitted kitchen/breakfast room opens out to the garden through large glazed doors and has been designed to match the original full height Douglas Fir storage cupboards. It is well equipped with Gaggenau appliances including twin electric ovens, steam oven and combi microwave, with space for an American-style fridge/freezer and a large island unit with a sink, Quooker hot tap and a Bora extractor induction hob. A well fitted utility room adjoins the kitchen, and the rear lobby serves as a practical boot room, with a cloakroom off.
There are five good-sized bedrooms on the first floor, a contemporary-style family bathroom and a separate shower room. The bedrooms all have a lovely outlook and the principal bedroom has access to a balcony which extends to bedroom 4, and is perfectly placed to enjoy the wonderful view towards the Ashdown Forest.
The attractive garden has hedging and fencing to the boundaries providing a good level of privacy and flexible space for entertaining with several flagstone terraces. Steps and paths lead up to areas of lawn with several mature trees and shrubs, including a yew, rhododendron, azalea and acer, herbaceous borders and topiary features.
To the front, Eversley is set well back from the private road with an attractive approach and driveway parking for several cars in front of an integral garage.
