This fabulous home is a short walk from local shops, excellent schools, superb transport links and open green spaces.
Set back from the road by a block brick driveway the covered entrance door sits neatly to the side, with rear garden access beyond.
Stepping inside, on your right is the living room, brightened by its dual aspect windows, with plenty of space for sofas. A brick fireplace adds character and warmth in the colder months, and there are fitted alcove cupboards for storage.
Opposite conveniently placed next to the kitchen, with more fitted cabinetry and an under stair cupboard, is the dining room. Neutral décor contrasts beautifully with warm wooden flooring and there is another fireplace for charming dining experiences.
Next door is the kitchen. It has plenty of cream units, wooden work tops, and ample space for freestanding appliances. The room feels bright with a window over the sink.
Behind is a lobby with a part glazed door leading out into the garden, space and plumbing for an appliance and a wall hung boiler.
The bathroom is at the rear with a shower over the bath and a window bringing in lots of natural light.
Climbing the stairs to the first floor there are two generous double bedrooms, both of which have large windows, and the larger of the two having the benefit of a fitted wardrobe.
Outside to the rear is a low maintenance paved garden that is safely enclosed for children and pets. A part glazed summer house offers storage options or the potential to modify it to be a home office. The two mature trees in the raised left hand border to the rear are a pear and an apple.
This house is chain free and would be perfect for a small family, young professionals or buy to let investors. It is also a dream project to create your own vision and add value in the future. A must see!

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 the property. 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 north 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. The property is also within the catchment areas for the 6 highly regarded and sought-after Tunbridge Wells and Tonbridge Grammar Schools and St Gregory's Catholic state secondary school is a short walk away.
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.
