Park Corner Lane, Groombridge, Tunbridge Wells, TN3 9NL

This house is a very fine Victorian detached property with two exceptional annexes, located just outside Groombridge and only a seven-minute drive from The Pantiles and Tunbridge Wells station. The property occupies a truly wonderful position, set within beautiful grounds and enjoying exceptional south-westerly views, offering a rare sense of peace and calm throughout the year. The current owner has enhanced the property both internally and externally to an exacting, high-specification standard. The result is an exquisitely presented home, showcasing unparalleled attention to detail across all residences, which now include, in addition to the main house, two self-contained one-bedroom annexes, plus a three-bay garage with an office studio above.

The garden has received the same thoughtful care and has been carefully curated to take full advantage of this property’s exceptional setting, with various seating areas designed to enjoy the views and the day-long sunshine. The current owner has made substantial investments in the property, including a full electrical rewire, a new heating and hot water system, installation of a Control4 Media audio system, new windows and doors, new bathrooms, and a new kitchen. Air conditioning has also been installed in selected areas for maximum comfort.

Additionally, planning permission exists for further downstairs extension to create the ultimate living space.

ROSE COTTAGE

The stylish porch creates a perfect welcome to this home, leading into the lobby, and then the inner entrance hall, featuring a wood-burning stove and stairs to the first floor. The ground floor accommodation includes a generous study, and a cosy reception room currently used by the owners as a formal dining space. Spanning the rear of the house is the generous drawing room, a wonderful room with a large brick fireplace and French doors leading to the rear terrace.

Adjacent is the kitchen/diner, a charming room with newly refitted Shaker-style cabinetry, quartz worktops, a Falcon double oven and grill, and a SMEG fridge. A pantry provides generous storage. The enviable triple aspect and French doors give this space a very connected feel to the rear garden, and its south-facing aspect ensures that it is always light and airy. A utility room to the front of the house and a well-appointed cloakroom complete the ground floor accommodation of this lovely residence.

Upstairs there are four double bedrooms, one of which is the master suite with a stylish bathroom, dressing room, and air conditioning. A family bathroom serves the remaining bedrooms.

LITTLE ROSE

This charming one-bedroom annex was created from a sympathetic conversion of a former outbuilding. The attention to detail and beautiful styling continues throughout the kitchen, sitting room, bedroom, and wet room – all of which have been designed to take full advantage of the stunning setting and meet the same high specification. This annex also features wet underfloor heating throughout.

THE VIEW

This charming dwelling sits at the very foot of the garden, hence its name. It features an open-plan kitchen/diner/reception room, separate bathroom and bedroom, with air conditioning. The private, covered decked area ensures total enjoyment of the views in all seasons.

THE GARAGE & STUDIO

This very attractive oak-framed building features three bays, all of which have separate electric doors. Outside there is a log store and a hot and cold dog wash, and above is a studio with WC and kitchen area, and air conditioning.

OUTSIDE

The landscaped gardens are south-facing, and include paved terraces for al-fresco entertaining, expanses of lawn, mature plantings, a duck pond, a vegetable garden and specimen trees. These lovely, peaceful gardens are fully enclosed and, due to the house’s elevated position, provide the most stunning views across the open countryside on its doorstep. Storage is plentiful in the form of three sheds and a discreetly positioned container: all included within the sale.
