A fabulous 5 bedroom detached 1930s style property situated in a very generous plot in this family friendly area of Tunbridge Wells. Excellent location for town centre, local parks and (in 2024) within Claremont school catchment area.
This superb five bedroom detached property is a lovely example of the 1930s style house that Farmcombe Road is so renowned for. It offers excellent family accommodation with a spacious kitchen, adjacent dining room, a conservatory which works well as a family room, as a separate reception room. The current owners have completely landscaped the rear garden, which is now a beautiful space, laid to lawn and terrace, with planted beds flanking either side, and mature trees creating a charming backdrop. With generous driveway parking and within the catchment for Claremont Primary School (2024 intake) this house has much to offer its new owners.
The formal reception room to the front is a peaceful space, filled with afternoon and evening sunshine, and laid to practical vinyl tile flooring. A generous opening leads to the dining room, which could equally serve well as a family room thanks to its location adjacent to the kitchen. The kitchen is well equipped with a range of wall and base units, and there is space for a small table if desired. To the rear is the conservatory, which works well as a garden room. All of these 3 rooms overlook the beautiful rear garden, a real standout feature of this property. The kitchen leads to a downstairs WC, and the integrated garage, which provides the perfect space for easy to access storage.
The first floor of this property has five bedrooms, an airing cupboard and the family bathroom and once again the floor is flooded with light from the large picture windows in every room. Four of the bedrooms are doubles, and all bar one have the practical addition of fitted wardrobes. The family bathroom is very well appointed and include a bath over the shower. The loft is accessed from the landing and is boarded.
To the front of the house is a generous driveway, which provides parking for up to 5 cars. A side return leads to the rear garden; a truly beautiful space which has been landscaped by the current owners to provide a large lawn, paved terrace flanking the rear of the house, a further decked seating area at its foot, and mature plants, shrubs and trees.
Farmcombe Road is within easy walking distance of the town centre, the High Street, The Pantiles, and the mainline station. It has numerous parks close at hand, and is also popular with families thanks to falling into the Claremont School catchment (2024 intake). The house is typified by 1930s style architecture, with a range of semi detached and detached houses. The setting higher up the road give this house a peaceful aspect and one of the largest plots.
