This beautiful ground floor apartment sits in the popular St Johns quarter of Tunbridge Wells.
It is a short walk from the local vibrant coffee shops, town centre, first class schools and mainline stations, making it perfect for young families and professionals with commuting needs.
Set back and screened from the road by a wall with hedging behind, its gravelled driveway provides allocated parking for two cars.
The apartment spans the entire ground floor of its detached house and benefits from two separate covered entrances, one of which is private.
As soon as you enter, the size and depth of the apartment is immediately apparent. Warm wooden flooring, linking each room seamlessly, high ceilings and large windows add to a true sense of space and light.
There are three restful double bedrooms running off the wide hallway.
The principal bedroom, brightened by its beautiful bay window, enjoys an ensuite shower room with a double walk-in shower.
Along the hallway is the bathroom which delivers a feeling of luxury with its quality fittings, contemporary tiles and a separate bath and shower cubicle. There is even a wall mounted TV monitor above the bath.
At the rear is the generously sized living/dining room, flooded with light from its bay window with French doors, delivering garden views and access. A beautiful painted mantle frames the chimney breast and with plenty of room for sofas and furniture, it is the perfect space to relax and entertain in.
Conveniently opening to the side is the stylish kitchen. Shaker style units contrast beautifully with its granite work tops and tiled flooring. There are integrated appliances, room for a large range oven, and dual aspect windows, one cleverly placed above the sink. There is a storage cupboard housing the boiler and a part glazed door to the side gives easy garden and driveway access.
Outside there is a wonderfully large west facing private garden that is laid mainly to lawn, with a paved terrace for summer dining and two sheds for storage. It is fully enclosed on all sides by wooden fencing, making it a safe sanctuary for pets and children.
With high ceilings, spacious rooms, and a popular location this home is ready to move straight in and enjoy. It also, however, has the opportunity to extend, subject to planning to consents, to add room and value. A must see!
