A bright, first-floor one-bedroom apartment in the heart of Tunbridge Wells, this 413 sq ft home combines period character with contemporary upgrades. High ceilings and a cast-iron fireplace give the main living space charm, while a modern open-plan kitchen with integrated appliances provides everyday convenience. The principal reception faces south, bringing good natural light.
Practical aspects suit first-time buyers, investors or downsizers: a recently renovated shower room, built-in bedroom wardrobes and useful built-in storage. Fast broadband and excellent mobile signal support home working; the location places cafes, restaurants and two mainline stations within walking distance.
Buyers should note this is a leasehold flat (approx. 92 years remaining). Annual service charge and ground rent apply (circa £1,000 and £250 listed). Heating is electric storage radiators and the building has solid brick walls likely without modern cavity insulation — expect higher running costs than a gas-heated property.
Overall this is a compact, well-presented urban apartment with character and easy access to local amenities and transport. It will suit a buyer wanting a low-maintenance city base, a buy-to-let investor, or someone stepping onto the property ladder prepared for leasehold costs and electric heating.
