The Ridgeway, Tonbridge, Kent

Located in one of the most prestigious areas of Tonbridge is this impressive detached five bedroom family home accessed via a spacious in-and-out driveway. The front door opens into a good sized vestibule with a contemporary cloakroom and a door to the entrance hall. This has fitted book shelves and a fascinating staircase incorporating a patterned wrought iron and wood bannister. There is a large room that could be used as another bedroom, playroom or office as it is just inside the house with easy access to the downstairs cloakroom.

The kitchen has a larder and shaker style wood units housing built in and stand-alone appliances plus a door to a covered porch and the boiler room. The kitchen also has open access to the attractive dining room that, in turn, has a wide archway to the impressive Victorian style conservatory providing a light and bright open plan feel and views across the garden. The elegant sitting room has a large bay window and an attractive fireplace with a gas fire as a focal point as well as double doors to a charming study.

On the first floor galleried landing there is an airing cupboard and access to a family bathroom and five bedrooms with fitted cupboards including three doubles and two singles. The master also has an en suite bathroom and views over the garden.

Outside there is a very spacious rear terrace, a large lawn surrounded by impressive shrub beds and high hedge borders providing security and privacy. There is also a garden storage shed and a potting shed.

What the owners say: We moved here 22 years ago as we wanted somewhere with plenty of space to provide a wonderful family home for our four children while they were growing up. It is conveniently located as we are easily accessible to the M20/M25 and A26/A21 but at the same time we are not far from the countryside and the river for walks with the dog. There is a mainline station that is a junction for two railway lines with trains to London Bridge taking about half an hour while two bus routes go to schools in Tonbridge and the surrounding towns.

Tonbridge includes a plethora of independent shops, salons, bars, restaurants and cafes plus retail outlets on the outskirts of the town. There are excellent educational facilities with a number of primary schools, several Outstanding grammar schools and private schools including Tonbridge.

What the Owner says:

We moved here some 22 years ago as we wanted somewhere with plenty of space to provide a wonderful family home for our four children but out circumstances have changed so we feel it is now time to pass the baton on to new owners. The house is very conveniently located as we are easily accessible to the M20/M25 and A26/A21 but at the same time we are not far from the countryside and the river for walks with the dog.
We are equally close to the historic Tonbridge town centre with its Norman castle built in the 13th century on the banks of the River Medway. This adjoins Tonbridge Park with its swimming pool, tennis courts, miniature railway, putting green and children's play area as well as pitches for football, baseball and cricket. There is a mainline station that is a junction for two railway lines so it is easy to take a train to places in Sussex, Kent and London where trains to London Bridge take about half an hour or 42 minutes to Charing Cross while the house sits centrally between two bus routes which go to schools in Tunbridge Wells, Sevenoaks and Hadlow as well as Tonbridge so children can safely go to school independently.
The vibrant town includes a plethora of independent shops, hair and beauty salons together with numerous bars, restaurants and cafes plus retail outlets on the outskirts of the town. There are excellent educational facilities with a number of primary schools, several Outstanding grammar schools with specialist status including performing arts, m
