Pennington Place, Southborough

SOLD BY FLYING FISH PROPERTIES With open farmland and woodland walks on its doorstep this home's tranquil cul-de-sac location offers the best of both worlds. You can enjoy a relaxed family life, whilst benefitting from excellent schools and superb transport links, accessed via a nearby cut through.

Set back from its quiet residential road by an expanse of lawn and silver birches, a driveway with parking for several cars fronts a tandem garage to the rear.

A side aspect door welcomes you in, past a useful guest cloakroom, to the spacious sitting room ahead. Its large front bay window floods the room with light while a smooth stone fireplace with its gas fire adds warmth in the colder months.

Opening to the right is the dining room which has plenty of space for a table and chairs for family dinners or entertaining. A rear wall of glass brightens the room and its French windows can lie open to bring views of the garden in.

Next door is the fitted kitchen, conveniently placed beside the dining room and also accessed from the hallway. There are plenty of wooden effect units topped with contrasting work surfaces which separate space for appliances and a part glazed door leads out into the garden.

Climbing the stairs to the first floor there are four bedrooms, two of which are generous doubles, all flooded with light from their windows.

A modern family bathroom with a bath with shower attachment and a separate shower room complete the first floor.

Outside the enclosed rear garden is laid mainly to lawn with a paved terrace that sits at the back of the house, perfect for alfresco dining and entertaining. It is a delightful space with mature well stocked flower beds, a variety of plants and shrubs and a pretty Magnolia tree.

This family home, set on a popular cul-de-sac close to local shops, sought after schools and excellent transport links, is ideal for a growing family. It also has great redevelopment potential. A must see!

Area Information: Southborough

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 Common, situated towards Pennington Place's end of the village, 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. Pennington Place is also within the catchment areas for the 5 highly regarded and sought after Tunbridge Wells and Tonbridge Grammar Schools.

The nearest mainline station to Southborough is at High Brooms, about a mile away via a cut through walk way, with fast and frequent train services to London Charing Cross. There are also mainline stations on the same line at Tonbridge and Tunbridge Wells. Tonbridge Station is just over 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 35 minute journeys.
