Description

A Distinguished Five-Bedroom Residence with Expansive Grounds and Exceptional Interiors

A grand solid wood front door opens into a spacious and welcoming entrance hall, setting the tone for the elegant and thoughtfully designed interiors throughout the home. With ceiling spotlights, two radiators, an understairs cupboard, and dual cloak cupboards as well as access to a cloakroom, the hallway is as practical as it is impressive, with stairs rising gracefully to the upper floors.

The ground floor is exceptionally well appointed for both family living and formal entertaining. The sitting room is a stunning focal point of the home, bathed in natural light from a double-glazed bay window to the side and full-height glazed doors to the rear, flanked by tall windows. A granite-surround gas fireplace with wood mantel adds warmth and character, while bespoke built-in TV cabinetry and elegant cornice mouldings enhance the refined ambiance.
The formal dining room is equally refined, with moulded cornices, a decorative ceiling rose, and direct access to the conservatory via double-glazed doors. Rebuilt in 2024, the conservatory blends hardwood finishes with double glazing and a vaulted UPVC ceiling, offering a tranquil year-round space with tiled flooring and panoramic views of the gardens.
To the front of the property, the study offers a quiet, sophisticated workspace, complete with a range of built-in bookcases and cabinetry, a large double-glazed window, radiator, and classic ceiling detailing. The kitchen is a true centrepiece of the home, boasting an extensive array of wall and floor cabinetry, high-spec integrated appliances including two ovens, microwave, dishwasher, fridge/freezer, and a five-ring halogen hob beneath a concealed extractor. A central island with breakfast bar and tiled flooring complements the space, which is illuminated by ceiling spotlights and offers convenient internal access to the garage.
Upstairs, the galleried landing with a double-glazed front window leads to five generously sized bedrooms, each finished to a high standard. The principal bedroom suite enjoys a private balcony overlooking the gardens, a full wall of fitted wardrobes, and a luxurious en-suite bathroom complete with corner bath, thermostatic shower, vanity unit with basin, WC, heated towel rail, and tasteful tiling throughout. A second bedroom also benefits from a well-appointed en-suite, featuring a panel-ended bath with shower, vanity basin, WC, and heated towel rail. Further bedrooms include a mix of front and rear-facing views, built-in wardrobes, and ceiling spotlights. A stylish family shower room serves these rooms, with a large thermostatic walk-in shower, vanity basin, WC, and heated towel rail, all finished in premium tiles.
The second floor reveals a vast loft conversion, currently configured as a substantial bedroom with two dormer windows, extensive built-in furniture, and ample eaves storage. This versatile space could easily serve as a luxurious principal suite or be divided to create additional bedrooms or living areas. A galleried landing with Velux window and loft hatch adds further character to this floor.

Externally, the home is equally impressive. To the front, a brick-paved driveway leads to a double garage with electric roller doors and ample parking. The communal approach includes a turning circle and visitor parking. To the rear, the grounds extend across several acres, enjoying a desirable south-westerly aspect. Mature trees, well-tended flowerbeds, expansive lawns, and a striking ancient oak pergola add grandeur and serenity, while a large pond and charming summerhouse complete the idyllic garden setting.
This is an exceptional property that effortlessly combines refined architectural details, generous proportions, and modern convenience in an enviable location-ideal for the discerning buyer seeking both luxury and lifestyle.

About Wood & Pilcher, Southborough

124 London Road, Southborough, Tunbridge Wells, TN4 0PL
Industry affiliations:
Wood & Pilcher Southborough

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.
