Pond House is a wonderful large 5/6 bedroom home situated in picturesque gardens of 0.76 acres at the end of a private drive, just under one mile from the town centre and train station.
Pond House is a wonderful large 5/6 bedroom home situated in picturesque gardens of 0.76 acres, set at the end of a private drive just off from the beautiful Bishops Park Road. The setting of this house is truly exquisite, embracing a peaceful and secluded setting yet all within walking distance of the town centre and mainline train station.
The internal accommodation is very spacious and well presented. The ground floor starts with an entrance hall which leads to a fully fitted kitchen and utility room with access to the garden. The dining room and reception room are interlinked, laid with a beautiful parquet floor and flooded with light thanks to the large picture windows. These in turn lead into the conservatory, a generous space which overlooks the garden and which could serve a variety of needs. There is also a large family room, again with views to the garden, and which leads to a study. A WC accessed from the entrance hall completes the accommodation on this floor.
Upstairs there are 6 bedrooms, one of which the current owners are using as a dressing room. All are good doubles with large picture windows ensuring they are light and bright, and nearly all benefit from fitted wardrobes. There is an en suite bathroom to the master bedroom, a family shower room and a further family bathroom to serve the remaining bedrooms. The landing also has large linen cupboards, and access to the loft which is boarded and fitted with a loft ladder.
The house is set at the head of a shared drive in a quiet secluded setting off a private road. The gardens extend to 0.76 acres all beautifully planted with mature shrubs and areas of bedding with a south easterly aspect. To the front is the pond that gives the house its name, and which creates a lovely vista along the driveway and for the rooms to the front of the house to enjoy. There is also a large double garage and an additional storage area.
Bishops Down Park Road is set off from Molyneux Park and is highly desirable thanks to its close proximity to the town centre, the excellent schools in the St Johns district and Tunbridge Wells common, which leads to The Pantiles and the High Street.
