Birling Park Avenue, Tunbridge Wells

SOLD BY FLYING FISH PROPERTIES, TUNBRIDGE WELLS This fantastic house is perched on an elevated plot at the end of a peaceful cul-de-sac, on the south side of Tunbridge Wells.

It enjoys far reaching views and open countryside on its doorstep, whilst being a stone's throw from easy access to fast rail connections to central London and the vibrant café culture of the Pantiles. It is also in the catchment area for many of the first-class schools, including the prestigious Tunbridge Wells grammar schools, making it the perfect home for families with professional needs.

With its part hung red tile exterior and impressive setting, the house is set back from the quiet cul-de-sac by neat areas of lawn and a decorative pebbled flower bed with a central tree.

A hard surface driveway fronts the double garage behind while paved steps wind you up towards the glazed front door.

The design of the house offers an incredible sense of light and space on three levels, with the opportunity to convert or extend its current flexible living space.

The entrance hallway, with a useful guest cloakroom, is bright and immaculate with light flooding through its front windows.

The living room to the right is double aspect with a stone fireplace inviting the fire to be lit to transform a cold night into a warm and inviting one. The back wall of sliding glazed doors open onto the terrace at the rear, letting you enjoy restful views of the garden.

Down the stairs to the ground floor hallway, with access into the integral garage, is the dining room. It has ample space for a dining table and chairs and is conveniently placed next to the kitchen.

The bright kitchen/breakfast room has plenty of wooden effect cabinetry, counter space and a fitted Neff oven with electric hob and pull out extractor hood above. A large window cleverly placed above the sink brightens the room and there is space for a table and chairs to enjoy your morning coffee.
At the rear is a utility room with space and plumbing for appliances, a door for garden access and a sink for muddy boots and paws.

Returning to the raised ground entrance hall and climbing the carpeted stairs, you reach four good sized bedrooms.

The master bedroom is a very generous space with three sets of double wardrobes and an en-suite shower room. The three other bedrooms are all spacious and light, two with fitted double wardrobes, while a family bathroom completes the floor.

Outside the landscaped garden is laid mainly to lawn with a large paved terrace perfect for alfresco dining at the rear of the house. It is fully enclosed offering a safe sanctuary for kids and dogs and a shed together with the integral double garage and store room delivers great storage space for cars, bikes and garden equipment.
