Description

This impressive double-fronted detached residence from the 1920s occupies a generous double-width plot in the desirable St James' area of Tunbridge Wells. With only one owner for over thirty years, the property has been a reliable family home and now presents an exciting opportunity for renovation. It is strategically located adjacent to Grosvenor & Hilbert Park, offering not only picturesque green views but also direct access to parks and regional transport links, enhancing both its charm and practicality. The accommodation spans three levels, featuring traditional characteristics that create a sense of space and flow. The ground floor comprises a well-proportioned living room that benefits from dual aspects, along with a kitchen/dining area that opens to the garage and workshop. Upstairs, four bedrooms are complemented by a sizable family bathroom, while the top floor provides additional potential with another bedroom and eaves access, allowing for further expansion or modernisation. Externally, the property's large plot includes ample parking options and a spacious garage. Situated less than a mile from Tunbridge Wells town centre and close to many reputable schools, this home offers an excellent foundation for both immediate enjoyment and future development opportunities subject to relevant approvals.
