GUIDE PRICE £575,000 - £600,000 Kings Estates are proud to offer this exquisite three-bedroom semi-detached Victorian home boasting a prime location directly opposite the recently refurbished Grosvenor & Hilbert Park, nestled in the heart of the St. James quarter of Tunbridge Wells. The property benefits immensely from the abundant light and open views provided by the park, enhancing the overall sense of space and tranquility.

The ground floor welcomes you with a principal entrance hallway, leading to all main rooms. The lounge is adorned with oak flooring, a Living Flame gas fireplace, and a bay window that frames picturesque park views. The adjacent dining room, perfect for entertaining, offers a decorative recess and sash window overlooking the rear garden. The well-equipped dual-aspect kitchen features painted shaker-style units, a tiled splashback and an inset sink, with views of and access to the south facing rear garden.

Upstairs, the property features three bedrooms, each enjoying pleasant outlooks. The master bedroom is particularly spacious, with dual front aspect sash windows offering stunning views of the park. The second bedroom is also well-proportioned, with a window overlooking the garden and a built-in cupboard. The third bedroom, situated at the rear, has a lovely view of the garden. A well-appointed family bathroom completes the first floor, featuring a white suite with a bath and shower attachment, a pedestal wash hand basin, and a low-level WC.

Externally, the property includes a low-maintenance front garden with recently planted lavender and a delightful 50ft south facing rear garden featuring an L-shaped patio area, steps leading to a slightly raised lawn bordered by flower beds and fruit trees (damson, cherry and quince), and a further raised bark terrace, ideal for outdoor dining and relaxation.

ST JAMES

The property is located in the popular St. James’ area of Royal Tunbridge Wells. Tunbridge Wells is the only spa town in the Southeast of England, with elegant architecture and a variety of cultural, entertainment and shopping attractions, including the historic Pantiles, known for its charming Georgian colonnade, summer Jazz festivals, regular food and craft markets and Chalybeate Spring; there are two theatres locally, an abundance of cafés and restaurants and a mixture of national multiple retailers and independent shops.

Amenities: The house is located close to very good amenities in an enviable position in Tunbridge Wells, just 0.2 miles from Royal Victoria Place shopping centre. Royal Victoria Place features a 3 floor Fenwick’s department store, a 2 floor Marks and Spencer and around 110 other stores. For post retail shopping the centre contains over 20 different places to eat and drink and also in the local area is the pantiles, which offers traditional pubs to stylish restaurants including The Ivy. Throughout the year there are a number of events including the food festival, as well as Jazz on the Pantiles from May through to September.

Recreational Amenities: Grosvenor & Hilbert Park, Dunorlan and Grosvenor Parks, Calverley Grounds, the Assembly Hall Theatre, Nevill Golf Club and St Johns Sports Centre offer an abundance of leisure facilities.

State and Private Schools: There are many highly-regarded schools in the vicinity, including Skinners, TWGGS, TWGSB, Bennett Memorial Diocesan and St Gregory’s secondaries and the popular St James Primary School and Rose Hill and Holmewood House Preparatory Schools are also close by.

Mainline Rail: High Brooms (about 0.7 miles), Tunbridge Wells (about 1.2 miles), with fast and frequent services to London Charing Cross (via London Bridge and Waterloo East) and Cannon Street with journey times from 50 minutes. The Centaur Commuter Coach service also stops on Rusthall High Street.

Communications: The A26 joins the A21 just North of the town, linking through to the M25 (junction 5) London orbital motorway, and thereby to the national motorway network, and to the South coast. Gatwick Airport is about 23 miles to the West, accessible via the motorway or via the A264.
