This substantial Edwardian detached house blends striking period character with modern family living across three floors. High ceilings, original fireplaces, bay windows and stained glass retain authentic charm, while an open-plan farmhouse kitchen, integrated appliances and contemporary bathrooms provide comfortable, practical day-to-day living. The house is best suited to an established family seeking generous living and entertaining space close to Tunbridge Wells town centre.
The plot is large and private, with two driveways offering off-street parking for several vehicles, a separate garage, store and useful outbuildings. The rear garden has a large patio, lawn and established beds — a sheltered, versatile outdoor space for children and adults. The property sits about 0.7 miles from the station, offering straightforward commuting and easy access to local shops, restaurants and highly regarded schools including Rose Hill and local grammar schools.
Buyers should note material cost considerations: council tax is described as quite expensive, and the immediate neighbourhood records above-average crime levels. The house has been updated to a high standard, but its size and many period features mean maintenance and running costs are higher than for a smaller modern home. Freehold tenure, fast broadband and excellent mobile signal are practical positives for home workers and families.
Overall this is a rare, large family home in a convenient, sought-after location. It offers strong potential for multi-generational living or flexible home/office arrangements, but buyers should factor in higher running costs and local crime statistics when considering the purchase.
