Screened by hedging and set back from the road by a sweeping carriage driveway, this wonderful detached 1920s property stands proud in its prestigious central location.
Royal Chase is a stone's throw from the bustling town centre's restaurants, shops, and cafes with the green open spaces of Tunbridge Wells Common nearby, making it a very enviable location.
The house enjoys pretty gardens to the rear but as the proud owner of this fantastic home you will also have the chance to gain membership to a private park which is exclusively reserved for you and your near neighbours.
A canopied entrance welcomes you into an enclosed porch and the spectacular wooden panelled entrance hall behind, which seamlessly links the rooms opening off it at all angles.
On the right is the sophisticated sitting room which enjoys views across the driveway through its large window. A fireplace with a pretty blue tiled surround offers timeless elegance and warmth in the colder months, and there is plenty of room for seating.
Opposite, the elegant drawing room has an impressive Inglenook fireplace as its focal point and given its generous space it currently doubles as a home office. It is a very social space with ample room for large family sofas for relaxing and entertaining and there is access into a shower room too.
Behind, the conservatory's wrap around windows draw in light and views of the beautiful garden. It is the perfect space for summer dining or relaxing in the sun and a set of French doors open onto the terrace and garden beyond.
Returning to the hallway to the rear, past a useful guest cloakroom, is the country style kitchen/dining room. Double aspect windows flood the room with light, with a part glazed door giving garden access. Warm wooden cabinetry provides storage and housing for appliances with a walk-in larder and space for a dining table and chairs for family meals.
The wide staircase takes you to the first floor, there are five double bedrooms, all brimming with character and brightened by large windows. A bathroom and separate modern shower room complete the floor.
The integral annex which can be accessed via its private entrance door or through the main house on both floors, is a fantastic addition. With generous living, eating and sleeping accommodation on two floors it is a very versatile space that can either be used for elderly family, visiting guests, a rental opportunity or alternatively can be easily reconfigured to afford you more rooms in the main house.
Outside the garden is a visual delight delivering picturesque views from the house. Next to the house is a paved terrace, with a further enclosed decked terrace behind the annex, perfect for summer dining. The lawns are well tended and there is a beautiful variety of trees, mature stocked beds and perimeter hedging and shrubbery. It is safely enclosed for children and pets and in addition to the detached garage, there is a wooden shed for storage.
This substantial, beautifully proportioned family home is in an enviable location. It also offers a dream project to create your own vision and add value in the future. A must see!
