Description

GUIDE PRICE £650,000 - £675,000. Located on one of St. James most popular residential roads and offering excellent potential for further extension and development - subject to the necessary permissions being obtainable - a three bedroom detached period property offered to a good standard with an especially large open plan kitchen/dining area, ground floor cloakroom, recently installed garden room/office and pleasingly large, south westerly facing rear gardens. A glance at the attached photographs and floorplan will give an indication as to the nature and quality of the proposition. What will be less readily apparent is the ambience in the immediate vicinity, buffered as it is by its immediate proximity to Grosvenor & Hilbert Park and on a street bypassed by larger busier roads in the area. To this end, it is an extremely attractive proposition in a peaceful and pleasant location but one still enjoying ready access to Tunbridge Wells town centre, both mainline stations and its facilities. Properties in this location and with potential to further advance, STPP, are rarely available for long and to this end we would encourage all interested parties to make an immediate appointment to view.

About Wood & Pilcher, Tunbridge Wells

23 High Street Tunbridge Wells TN1 1UT
Industry affiliations:

We are a proud independent Estate Agency chain, fuelled with an unrivalled passion for property, covering Kent & Sussex from prominent High Street offices. We have been in full control of our business since 1981 as we believe our local market and valued clients should dictate how our agency runs, not a corporate structure located miles away.

An Agent Where You Live:

We continue to support the High Street, with prominent offices in Southborough, Tunbridge Wells, Crowborough and Heathfield, allowing us to cover some of Kent and Sussex's best loved towns and villages. We are based in the community in order to maintain an intimate knowledge of local markets and housing stock, as well as affording us the pleasure of forming lasting relationships with many of our business neighbours. Repeat custom is a large part of our agency, and many of our clients return to buy and sell through Wood & Pilcher throughout their property journey.

Trust & Confidence:

Each Wood & Pilcher branch is staffed by loyal employees who have been hand- picked for their experience and ability to deliver exceptional customer care, with a resident Partner or Director close at hand. Standards are important to us and in addition to recruiting only the finest property professionals, many of our staff are licensed members of Propertymark (NAEA & ARLA). Wood & Pilcher also benefits from an exclusive membership to The Guild of Property Professionals - a network of over 800 carefully selected experienced agents.

The Wood & Pilcher way is to put clients first, so we tailor our services on an entirely exclusive and individual basis. Our advice is delivered with dedication, enthusiasm and a level of integrity that underpins our longevity in the local area.

Although we are proud to uphold and monitor our own standards, there is no better judge of our services than our customers. It is their feedback that has won us service awards from Feefo and now with superb ratings on the ESTAS platform.

Looking After You & Your Property:

We are a local, approachable estate agency with genuine compassion for those who use our services and respect everyone's individual circumstances. Our network of branches is strategically positioned to cover areas that buyers, sellers and tenants traditionally move within.

As your agent, we are readily available during the moving process as we know there are times when you may need advice or urgent assistance. Our High Street branches mean clients can drop in for personal reassurance, as well as reach us by phone or email.

Buying, selling, renting and investing in property requires a pro-active estate agent - the onus shouldn't be on the client to chase and enquire. Therefore Wood & Pilcher has developed a sales progression service that keeps everyone informed at key milestones. This includes updating other estate agents and associated solicitors in any chain to ensure everything is always moving in the right direction.

Marketing Your Property:

Every property is unique and that's why Wood & Pilcher create a personal marketing plan for every seller or landlord. Our aim is always to deliver as many purchasers or tenants as possible for a property, and we use a wide range of professional and innovative marketing tools to achieve this.

We look forward to being of assistance.
