A spacious five-bedroom detached house set on a large plot on the desirable south side of Tunbridge Wells. With no onward chain and immediate occupancy possible, the property suits a growing family seeking space close to good schools, parks and transport links. The house benefits from a new heating system (2023) and a recent EICR (2024), giving confidence while you plan updates.
The layout includes separate sitting and dining rooms, a kitchen with adjacent breakfast room, and ground-floor shower room with separate WC. Upstairs are five well-proportioned bedrooms, a family bathroom and loft access, plus far-reaching town views from the first floor. Established gardens, driveway parking and a double garage add practical family convenience.
The house does require renovation and modernisation to realise its full potential; improvements and any extensions would need the usual consents. The walls are original cavity construction without added insulation (assumed), and council tax is described as quite expensive. EPC rated C — reasonable efficiency but scope to improve further.
Located about 1.7 miles from Tunbridge Wells town centre, the property is well placed for the Pantiles, shops, theatres and rail services to London. There is a strong choice of nearby state and independent schools, parks and countryside walks, making this a solid long-term family purchase with redevelopment upside.
