Description

Freeman Forman presents a substantial period semi-detached house arranged over three levels, with four or five bedrooms and a large rear garden. The ground floor has a porch and entrance hall, a bay-fronted living room with a wood burner, a kitchen/breakfast room, utility room, dining room and garden/play room. Upstairs are a main bedroom with en-suite shower room, further bedrooms and a family bathroom; two additional bedrooms occupy the second floor, alongside attic storage. A larger rear loft area may offer scope for further accommodation, subject to the necessary consents. The property has planning permission for a single-storey rear extension under reference 24/00535/FULL. Outside, a private driveway provides parking for two cars, with gated side access to the rear garden, described as approximately 150 feet long. The garden includes a patio, fruit trees, a vegetable-growing area, lawn and two sheds with power and lighting. The house is close to Tunbridge Wells town centre, Royal Victoria Place, the Pantiles and High Street. The listing also notes nearby schools and access to Tunbridge Wells and High Brooms railway stations. Buyers should note that the agent charges a non-refundable identity and anti-money-laundering check fee after an offer is accepted.

WHOTS analysis

Our WHOTS verdict

An internal assessment of the opportunity to acquire, improve and create value.

66out of 100
Grade CPotential opportunity

Confidence: MEDIUM

At £825,000, this substantial period semi-detached home is priced below the local average per square foot, making the asking price a clear acquisition opportunity. The five-bedroom layout, period details and generous living spaces provide a strong base, while the older kitchen and bathroom finishes offer scope for a light cosmetic update rather than a major overhaul.

The large garden, driveway parking and stated permission for a single-storey rear extension add to the appeal; verify the consent and its conditions before relying on it. The lawn is patchy, and the full roof and concealed elements cannot be assessed from the photographs.

Key opportunities

  • Refresh the older kitchen and bathroom finishes while retaining their currently usable fittings where appropriate.
  • Make the most of the generous garden, including recovering or reseeding the patchy lawn and improving the outdoor areas.
  • Explore the stated single-storey rear extension consent, verifying its status and conditions before proceeding.
