Summary - 47 SOMERHILL ROAD TONBRIDGE TN9 2ED
2 bed 1 bath Semi-Detached
Spacious rear garden, parking and clear scope to improve close to station.
Walking distance to High Street and Tonbridge station
Located in a quiet cul-de-sac within easy walking distance of Tonbridge High Street and station, this two-bedroom semi offers a practical town living base with genuine scope. The house sits on a substantial rear plot of around 90ft with a patio and lawn, plus private off-street parking — a rare find so close to local amenities and good schools.
Internally the layout is straightforward: lounge, kitchen/diner and hallway on the ground floor, with two double bedrooms and a family bathroom upstairs. The property is an average-sized home (approximately 636 sq ft) built c.1930–1949 and retains traditional features such as a fireplace; much of the interior dates to the 1980s and will benefit from updating to modern tastes.
There is clear potential to improve and extend subject to the necessary planning and building consents. Buyers should note material drawbacks: the home shows signs of dated fittings, possible damp, and will need general modernization. Double glazing is present but its installation date is unknown. The local area is described as more deprived with above-average crime rates — factors that may affect some buyers and rental potential.
This property suits a practical buyer: a young family seeking proximity to schools and transport, or an investor ready to refurbish and add value. With fast broadband, local schooling rated Good to Outstanding nearby, and freehold tenure, the house offers a solid basis for improvement and future return, provided the required works and local considerations are accepted.
