Tucked away down a quiet private drive in the heart of St John's, this beautifully designed detached home offers the perfect balance of contemporary living, exceptional energy efficiency and a wonderfully peaceful setting, all within easy walking distance of Tunbridge Wells town centre.
Hidden away down a private driveway just off Queens Road, this beautifully presented detached home immediately offers something quite special. Although moments from the heart of the popular St John's area, it feels remarkably peaceful, private and secure, a wonderful retreat at the end of the day.
Completed in 2023, the property perfectly combines the charm of a cottage-style home with all the benefits of modern construction. Beautifully styled throughout, every room has been thoughtfully designed to maximise both light and space, while the exceptional energy efficiency means the house is as economical to run as it is comfortable to live in.
The heart of the home is the impressive open-plan sitting and dining room. Filled with natural light from windows overlooking the garden and elegant French doors opening directly onto the terrace, it is a wonderfully sociable space equally suited to everyday family life or entertaining friends. Underfloor heating runs throughout the ground floor, complementing the contemporary flooring and creating a warm, luxurious feel.
The kitchen is both stylish and practical, fitted with a quality Howdens kitchen finished with quartz worktops and a range of integrated appliances including a fridge, freezer, dishwasher, oven and hob. The traditional butler sink enjoys a pleasant outlook over the rear garden, while the adjoining utility room offers plumbing for both a washing machine and tumble dryer, together with additional storage and the boiler. Further practical touches include generous understairs storage and a beautifully appointed cloakroom.
Upstairs, both bedrooms are excellent doubles and each benefits from its own beautifully finished en-suite, offering excellent flexibility depending on your needs. The room currently arranged as the principal bedroom could equally serve as a generous guest room, with the second bedroom making an equally impressive main bedroom thanks to its size and en-suite facilities, allowing buyers to choose the layout that best suits their lifestyle. The current owner has comfortably arranged two single beds within one bedroom, demonstrating its generous proportions, while the current principal bedroom enjoys fitted wardrobes and an elegant en-suite shower room. Plantation shutters, included within the sale, add both style and privacy, while fitted carpets create a warm and welcoming feel throughout the first floor. Excellent storage continues with a spacious landing cupboard and a fully boarded loft complete with ladder, lighting and power.
Garden and External Space
Outside, the rear garden has been designed to be both attractive and easy to maintain. A generous paved terrace provides the perfect space for outdoor dining before leading onto an area of lawn enclosed by quality fencing. The current owner particularly enjoys the evening sunshine here, while gated access on both sides of the property and additional storage to the rear make the outside space exceptionally practical. To the front, the generous driveway comfortably accommodates multiple vehicles and is equipped with an EV charger, making the property well suited to modern living.
