A charming house situated close to Tunbridge Wells’ common, with versatile accommodation, a 1-bedroom annexe, walled rear garden, and a unique, secluded location, within easy reach of local amenities.
Situated just to the west of the town centre of Tunbridge Wells, and also within walking distance to the vibrant village of Rusthall, this delightful house offers flexible accommodation arranged over two floors, together with a separate one-bedroom annexe positioned within the rear garden. It enjoys a secluded location, and sits well in its generous walled garden. It comes to the market for the first time in over 30 years, having been a well loved family home for the current owners.
The ground floor is well configured for day-to-day living and home working. To the rear of the house is the kitchen/dining room, with a fabulous vaulted ceiling. This room has good worktop and storage provision and adequate room for a family table. Adjacent is a convenient reception room, which the current owners have used as a family room in the past, and which could equally serve as a formal dining room. From here, there is direct access to the conservatory: a very generous room which flanks the rear of the property, and which works well as an everyday dining area, family room or play space depending on requirements. A further reception room to the front of the house provides useful separation and flexibility, and a separate office/study is an added benefit for those working from home.
There are four double bedrooms in this house, with one located on the ground floor, adjacent to the ground-floor shower room. The remaining three bedrooms are located on the first floor, supported by a family bathroom and separate WC. The bedroom mix provides options for families, guests, or additional study space, and there is also useful storage within the eaves, in addition to the part-boarded loft. There are charming views towards Nevil Park from the rear of the house.
Outside, the rear garden is arranged to provide a combination of lawn and paved areas, with mature planting creating definition and privacy, all flanked by the original brick wall. The garden annexe is a key feature, providing self-contained ancillary accommodation with its own kitchenette, living space, and bathroom, with a staircase rising to the mezzanine bedroom area. There is also an outside workshop / store, and a carport, along with generous driveway parking.
The house sits just to the west of Tunbridge Wells common, and so The Pantiles, the High Street and the top end of town are all within easy walking distance. Rusthall is also close at hand, and is a well-established and well-supported community with a range of day-to-day amenities, including a pharmacy and a post office, while Tunbridge Wells offers a broader selection of shops, restaurants, leisure facilities and schooling. The Tunbridge Wells & Rusthall Commons are also nearby, providing extensive open space and walking routes. For commuters, Tunbridge Wells mainline station provides direct services to London Charing Cross, with an average journey time of around 55 minutes. There are also excellent schools within easy reach, including those in the coveted grammar school system.
