Holden Corner, Southborough, Tunbridge Wells

SOLD BY FLYING FISH PROPERTIES TUNBRIDGE WELLS This charming home is neatly tucked away from the hustle and bustle of life, down a quiet street behind the picturesque village pond. However, it delivers the best of both worlds as it is also a short walk from local shops, sought after schools and excellent transport links.

It has been extended and sympathetically modernised with neutral décor contrasting beautifully with warm wooden flooring, and period features.

Off street parking fronts the house with the pretty garden sat neatly to the side.

A beautiful wooden door opens into a wide entrance hallway, brightened by a side window overlooking the garden.

At the rear is the spacious kitchen/dining room which is charming and well designed. Its stylish cabinetry beautifully contrasts with the wooden flooring and counter tops. There is an integrated oven, microwave, and induction hob with a contemporary tiled splashback behind. The well-defined dining space is framed by French doors that flood the space with light and open into the garden. There is a deep under stair storage cupboard offering plenty of storage, space for additional appliances and an opening in the chimney breast at the rear.

Beyond is the utility room, with a Belfast sink, integrated dishwasher, space and plumbing for a washing machine and a cupboard and countertop for all your needs.

Next door is the spacious bathroom which has a shower cubicle, bath and a long vanity unit with a wash hand basin above and cupboards under.

Returning to the hallway and climbing the stairs to the first floor, there are two graceful double bedrooms both beautifully presented with large windows drawing in light and views.

Outside the sunny garden is fully enclosed offering a safe sanctuary for pets and children. Mature stocked flower beds edge the area of lawn and there is a gravelled space around the house that serves as seating area or storage space.

Area Information: Southborough, Tunbridge Wells

Southborough lies just a couple of miles north outside the historic spa town of Tunbridge Wells with its big retail names and its Georgian colonnade, the Pantiles, offering a vibrant café culture.

It also sits just south of Tonbridge, with the A26 passing through it offering easy access to the A21 which leads to the M25.

Southborough Hub with its new medical centre, library, theatre/hall, coffee shop, community rooms, and town council offices, together with retail space is within walking distance of Holden Corner. The Yew Tree and Ridgewaye Playing Fields are also close by, with open green spaces for walking and recreational sport. There are also allotments either side of the fields allowing you to grow your own fruit and vegetables on your doorstep.

Southborough Common, situated close to the property, is a conservation area where cricket has been played for more than 200 years.

If you're a runner, dog owner or casual walker, the woodland area of the Southborough Common, nestled behind St. Peters Church, is a very beautiful space. Ancient and young trees slope down to a stream with access to Holden Pond and Bidborough and Speldhurst villages beyond.

Excellent secondary, independent, preparatory, and private schools can be found in both Tunbridge Wells and Tonbridge, while Southborough and Bidborough have their very own primary schools. Holden Corner is also within the catchment areas for the 6 highly regarded and sought-after Tunbridge Wells and Tonbridge Grammar Schools.

The nearest mainline station to Southborough is at High Brooms with fast and frequent train services to London Charing Cross, London Bridge, Canon Street and Victoria. There are also mainline stations on the same line at Tonbridge and Tunbridge Wells. Tonbridge Station is 2 miles away and with two lines passing through, it provides on average 34 trains a day from Tonbridge to London Bridge in as little as 40-minute journeys. There is also a luxury coach service, which drops up and collects a short walk from the property, straight to Canary Wharf, the city, Embankment, and other central London destinations. It is half the cost of rail travel enabling you to slumber or work using its Wi-Fi connectivity as you travel.
