This beautiful period home has been loved by the same family for over four decades, but it is also a dream project to create your own vision and add value in the future.
Arranged over three floors it sits on a popular road only a short distance from local shops, sought after schools and excellent transport links into London.
Pretty roof gabling and decorative hung tiles deliver plenty of kerb appeal, with a block brick driveway to the front and gated rear garden access to the side.
The entrance door opens into an elegant hallway showcasing its period proportions.
To the left light pours into the spacious living room through its bay window overlooking the residential street. It is a welcoming space with fitted alcove cabinetry and a fireplace that adds character and warmth in the colder months.
Behind is the dining room, conveniently placed next to the kitchen, which is a versatile space that could easily double as a playroom or home office, depending on your needs.
At the end of the hallway, is the kitchen/breakfast room with generous proportions that make it a very social space, its open plan layout letting you chat to friends and family as you prepare dinner. Windows to the side and a part glazed door at the rear bring in light and garden views with wooden cabinets topped with contrasting wooden work tops wrapping round the room and providing housing for freestanding appliances.
To the rear is a shower room with guest cloakroom facilities.
Climbing the stairs to the first floor there are four bedrooms, all generous doubles brightened by large windows. The fifth bedroom at the rear has a wall of fitted wardrobes so could easily be converted into a dressing room, as it is accessed from bedroom two.
Across the landing is the family bathroom with a wooden panel enclosed bath with a shower over and a front aspect window offering lots of natural light.
Up a further flight of stairs to the second floor, past a deep eaves' storage cupboard, is a further spacious bedroom.
Outside the long rear garden has a paved terrace near the house, an area of lawn, a raised vegetable box and a wooden shed for storage. It is safely enclosed by wooden fencing with stocked flower beds at the perimeters. There is an additional block brick terrace to the rear, perfect for sitting in the sun, and a paved area to the side of the house with bin storage space and street access. Like the house, it is a blank canvas for you to create your own dream garden and has ample room for a garden studio to be placed at the rear.
Woodfield Road is superbly located for a host of popular nurseries, primary, secondary and grammar schools, most notably the sought-after Tonbridge Grammar School for Girls. It is also close to all of Tonbridge's local amenities and the mainline railway station making it well served for leisure facilities and transport links. A must see!
