Located towards the southerly side of Tunbridge Wells town centre in a plot of approximately 1/3 of an acre (tbv), a four bedroom detached property with excellent entertaining space, generous parking, good bedroom sizes and ripe for further extension and development, subject to the necessary permissions being obtainable. The property is well positioned for access to both Tunbridge Wells town centre itself as well as attractive Areas of Outstanding Natural Beauty just over the East Sussex border nearby. In their time of ownership the current owners have made significant effort to present not only an attractive house but also beautiful, well stocked gardens. As currently arranged, the property has a generous principal reception hallway with a large lounge, front sun room and rear garden room, a further excellent sized dining room with further kitchen/breakfast room, study, cloakroom and utility room to the ground floor.
