Loved by the same family for over four decades, this home is a dream project to create your own vision and add value in the future.
It is perfectly located, being close to High Brooms mainline station, with fast access into central London, and within easy reach of Tunbridge Wells' town centre and the open green spaces of Grosvenor & Hilbert Park.
Set back from the road by a block brick driveway with space for several cars, a canopied entrance welcomes you in, with the garage sat neatly to the side.
First on the right is the spacious living/dining room, flooded with light from its front aspect window and rear glazed doors that open into the garden. Its open plan layout makes it a very sociable space, perfect for family life and entertaining and there is plenty of room for furniture.
Next door, the kitchen/breakfast room is brightened by dual aspect windows, one of which is cleverly placed above the sink. Wooden cabinetry separating space for freestanding appliances is topped with contrasting counter tops and there is space for a table and chairs to the side with another door giving garden access.
Climbing the stairs to the first floor there are four bedrooms, three of which are generous doubles, all with large windows drawing in lots of natural light.
The bathroom is at the front, with a shower over its bath, and there is a separate toilet too.
The large loft with its drop-down ladder is boarded for storage and has potential for development, subject to planning consent.
Outside the garden is laid mainly to lawn with a large, paved terrace, perfect for summer dining, at the rear of the house. It is fully enclosed offering a safe sanctuary for kids and dogs and a double shed together with the integral garage delivers great storage space. There is also a further small section of garden behind the tree boundary at the rear which could be incorporated into the garden.
This house gives you a fantastic opportunity to modernise it to suit your own taste and needs. It also has huge potential to create the perfect home for a young family. A must see!
