Rydal Drive, Tunbridge Wells

Tucked away on a peaceful cul-de-sac surrounded by woodland, its quiet location offers the best of both worlds as it is also a short walk from sought after schooling, excellent transport links and the town centre.

The property has been extended and refurbished by the current owner to a high standard. Her creation of a fantastic lower ground kitchen/dining room with glazed doors opening into the garden, delivers a contemporary modern twist.

Set back from the road by a pretty front garden, a neat driveway with parking for two cars sits in front of its detached garage.

Stepping into the hallway, its immaculate neutral décor links each room, giving a sense of light and space.

First on the left is the master bedroom with its shuttered front aspect window brightening the room and fitted wardrobes offering plenty of storage.

Behind is the living room, which is a good size, with a large rear aspect window bringing leafy views in. There is plenty of room for sofas.
Opposite are two further restful double bedrooms, one double aspect and the other enjoying garden views.

A stylish and contemporary bathroom with shower over the bath completes the floor.

Carpeted stairs to the rear lead down to the incredible open plan kitchen/dining room that makes up the entire lower ground floor. It delivers wonderful cooking facilities with glossy cabinets, contrasting quartz counter tops, Bosch fitted appliances and contemporary tiled splash backs. For family and entertaining, there is tons of space. The room is flooded with light and views of the garden from the triple bi-fold doors at the rear which cleverly open to extend the living space into the garden in the warmer months. A breakfast bar and room for dining table and chairs lets you chat to friends as you prepare dinner or to the children as they do their homework.

Outside the large sunny rear garden offers a high level of privacy with a paved terrace stretching the width of the kitchen/dining room, perfect for alfresco dining. An expanse of lawn, which is bordered on all sides by wooden fencing, offers a safe sanctuary for children and pets whilst steps lead up to a further paved terrace and access to the front of the house. The driveway provides parking for two cars and the detached garage offers great storage or development options.

Each room of this fantastically designed home has been well thought out and sensitively planned for modern life. A must see!
