Langton Road, Tunbridge Wells, Kent

This characterful family home is located at the end of a tree-lined drive that only leads to the church and the two schoolhouse properties. It is in a quiet, semi-rural area that backs onto woodland but only about a mile from the famous Pantiles and a six minutes' drive to the station.

Originally part of a Victorian school built in 1854, the property has been beautifully transformed into a stunning modern home. However it still retains wonderful external period features including mellow stonework, fascinating shaped window frames, gable dormers and a charming pitched roof porch. Internally, there are original exposed timber truss beams and plasterwork.

The property includes a level frontage with an EV charging point and leads to the arched front door and a vestibule. This opens into the nearly 32ft living room with a wide archway to the double height dining room/pool table area. It has attractive solid oak flooring, painted ceiling beams, double glazed Crittal windows designed to fit the unique windows and access to the kitchen/breakfast room. A mezzanine balcony on the stairs overlooks the dining room that includes a high vaulted ceiling with an original vaulted stone wall, exposed beams and a fascinating quatrefoil top window.

The superb kitchen/breakfast room has tiled flooring, inset ceiling lights, a wide archway to the charming orangery and French doors to the terrace. There is a central island/breakfast bar and hand crafted wood units with quartz worktops housing upmarket appliances together with an adjacent utility room and cloakroom.

Upstairs you will find a contemporary family bathroom and four bedrooms with vaulted ceilings including a single and three doubles. The principal bedroom offers woodland views and has a modern ensuite shower.

The rear terrace leads to a lawn interspersed with mature trees and shrubs and a second seating area with views over the churchyard and surrounding woodland.

What the owners say: We have lived in this lovely and unusual home for the past 20 years but it is time to start a new chapter in our lives. During our time here we have installed new bathrooms, updated the kitchen and installed a new gas fired c/heating boiler. We loved the fact that we are in a quiet area but we can also be in the centre of Tunbridge Wells in a matter of minutes.

What the owners say: We have lived in this lovely and unusual home for the past 20 years but it is time to start a new chapter in our lives. During our time here we have installed new bathrooms, updated the kitchen and installed a new gas fired central heating boiler. We loved the fact that we are in a quiet area that is also safe for children and pets and we can enjoy walks in the nearby woods. But we can also be in the centre of Tunbridge Wells in a matter of minutes. We are also close to a bus stop and it is only half a mile to the Beacon Hotel and restaurant if you a meal out without having to drive.
Tunbridge Wells or, more formally Royal Tunbridge Wells, became a famous spa town in Regency times when it was frequented by the aristocracy who came to take the waters and enjoy the entertainment organised by Beau Nash. Much of this historic town was developed during that time including the famous Pantiles that now offers a delightful mix of independent shops, bars and restaurants.
