A most attractive 1920s detached 4-bedroom house of approximately 2,450sq.ft set within mature gardens of just under a third of an acre, situated in a much sought after location within walking distance of village amenities.
Situation: The property is situated in a much sought after road in a quiet, yet convenient position in Wadhurst village, voted the best place to live in the UK in 2023. The village High Street is approximately 1 mile distant and offers an excellent range of shops and services for everyday needs including a Jempson’s Local store and post office, café, butcher, baker, bookshop, pharmacy, florist, off licence, public houses, as well as a doctor’s surgery, dentist, primary school and the well-regarded Uplands Community College and Sports Centre.
For the commuter, Wadhurst mainline station is approximately 1¼ miles distant and provides a regular service to London Bridge/Charing Cross/Cannon Street in just over an hour. There is a regular bus service and the A21 is also within easy reach providing a direct link to the M25 (junction 5) and the coast. Gatwick Airport is about 30 miles to the west, the Eurotunnel terminal at Folkestone is about 45 miles to the east and central London is about 50 miles away. The regional centre of Tunbridge Wells is just 6 miles distant and provides a comprehensive range of amenities including The Pantiles, the Royal Victoria Shopping centre, cinema complex and theatres.
The beautiful surrounding countryside is a designated Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, provides many public footpaths and includes Bewl Water Reservoir, reputedly the largest area of inland water in the Southeast, where a wide range of water sports can be enjoyed.
Description: Carambola is a handsome and substantial double-fronted detached period house, which dates from the 1920s and provides light, spacious and well-proportioned accommodation with period features throughout. The property has external elevations of brick and render beneath a tiled roof and double-glazed windows with two attractive brick and tile-hung bay windows.
The house is well presented and has been well maintained, yet also offers excellent scope for further improvement and enlargement, if required, including conversion of very a large attic room (subject to the necessary consents).
Arranged over three floors the accommodation includes on the ground floor: a spacious entrance hall; a large, triple aspect sitting room, which extends to over 28ft; a well-proportioned dining room with a bay window overlooking the front and a feature fireplace; a cloakroom; a study with door leading out to the garden; a triple aspect kitchen/breakfast/family room, which extends to 21ft 7 and has a range of shaker style wall and base units, breakfast bar, space for seating/sofa, a door leading out to a terrace and the garden and a further door leading to a good-sized utility room with door giving to the garage and garden. On the first floor there is a spacious landing, four double bedrooms, a well-appointed shower room and an ensuite bathroom. Stairs from the landing lead to the second floor where there is an excellent loft room.
Outside, to the front of the property is a block paved driveway providing parking for several cars leading to an attached double garage with electric up and over doors. The garage has useful storage above as well as an up and over door and single door to the rear leading to the garden. The driveway is bordered with well stocked flowerbeds planted with a variety of mature shrubs and plants and there is also an area of lawn.
A side gate with path gives access to the rear of the house where there is a large terrace, a further decked seating area and a large lawn. The garden is planted with a variety of shrubs and trees and bordered with mature hedging and fencing.
There is a large shed at the bottom of the garden and smaller shed currently used as an outdoor bar.

About this agent
Aren't all estate agents the same? We don't think so. Since February 2005 when we first opened our doors, we have built an unrivalled reputation for our service-led approach to successfully selling town and country property. We pride ourselves on the level of service we offer. Key to this is the fact we only ever market up to twenty properties at one time enabling us to provide the highest level of service at all times. Our professionalism, sound advice and level of expertise is second to none, with each aspect of the selling and buying process being handled by one of our directors. With clear and relevant communication being key to a successful move, we like to be involved at each stage from the very first point of contact through to the completion of a sale. Our personal tailor-made approach to selling town and country property has seen continued success in Tunbridge Wells and this has also led to an increasing demand for our services outside town. Due to this we are pleased to have opened our second branch in Wadhurst in February 2015. We continue to provide the level of service both sellers and buyers have come to expect from us and testament to this is the number of recommendations we consistently receive from our clients. So get in touch and see how we can help with your move. Our approach is different, it’s working and it will work for you.
