Langton Road, Tunbridge Wells

Tucked away behind mature foliage and a charming picket fence, this exquisite period cottage offers the perfect blend of timeless character and modern living. Overflowing with original features, the property boasts beamed ceilings, a solid oak staircase, an impressive inglenook fireplace, and beautiful latch doors-each detail a testament to its rich heritage.

A quaint pathway guides you through a secluded front garden, complete with a central patio courtyard and manicured lawn, before arriving at the welcoming original front door. Step inside to a practical porch area, ideal for coats and boots, which opens into the entrance hall. From here, a latch door leads down to a useful cellar, perfect for storage.

The spacious sitting room exudes warmth and charm, featuring a delightful box window and a magnificent inglenook fireplace-an ideal setting for cosy evenings. The kitchen marries classic style with modern convenience, fitted with contemporary shaker-style units, a solid butcher's block worktop, and space for a compact Range cooker, dishwasher, and fridge/freezer. A separate utility room provides additional practicality, with space for a washing machine and access to a sleek, modern shower room.

At the rear, elegant double doors open into a conservatory that enjoys tranquil views across the beautifully landscaped, low-maintenance gardens. Raised beds, defined seating areas, and thoughtful planting create a calm oasis ideal for entertaining or quiet retreat.

Ascend the handcrafted oak staircase-an original Grade II listed feature-to the first floor, where you'll find a generously proportioned double bedroom complete with fitted wardrobes and a stylish ensuite bathroom. The top floor reveals a second double bedroom, equally characterful, with its own private ensuite shower room.

Perfectly positioned, the cottage lies just a short, scenic stroll across the common to the vibrant High Street, the iconic Pantiles, and the mainline station. Despite its central location, the property remains a hidden gem, cocooned in privacy by mature trees and shrubbery.

This is a rare opportunity to own a truly unique and enchanting home in one of the town's most sought-after settings-ideal for those seeking character, charm, and convenience in equal measure.
