Culverden Park, Tunbridge Wells

An Exceptional Five-Bedroom Family Home in a Prime Tunbridge Wells Location

Set along one of Tunbridge Wells' most prestigious residential roads, just a short stroll from the town centre, highly regarded schools, and the mainline station, this superb detached residence combines elegant proportions with contemporary flair to create an outstanding family home. Extensively renovated and thoughtfully enhanced by the current owners, the property now offers over 2,200 sq ft of beautifully appointed and versatile accommodation, perfectly suited for both relaxed family living and stylish entertaining.

From the moment you arrive, the house impresses with its commanding presence and immaculate kerb appeal. A deep paved driveway framed by manicured hedging and mature planting leads to an integrated garage and the handsome Mediterranean-style iron columned entrance porch. Beyond the solid oak front door, a striking double-height entrance hall with galleried landing and handmade oak staircase sets the tone for the quality and scale found throughout the home.

The ground floor presents a flowing and adaptable layout, beginning with a spacious dual-aspect reception room featuring a bay window to the front and full-width bi-fold doors opening to the rear terrace and gardens. A further sitting room or study enjoys garden access via French doors, offering an ideal retreat or playroom. The heart of the home is undoubtedly the expansive open-plan kitchen/dining room - a light-filled and sophisticated space boasting sleek white gloss cabinetry, premium AEG appliances, a central island with induction hob and breakfast bar, and bi-fold doors that seamlessly connect indoors to the sun-drenched patio beyond. A stylish cloakroom completes the ground floor.

Upstairs, the principal bedroom suite is a haven of calm, with views to front and rear, fitted wardrobes, and a luxurious en suite shower room with high-end finishes. A second bedroom also benefits from en suite facilities, while three further bedrooms are served by a well-appointed family bathroom. Throughout, the home features quality materials such as solid oak flooring, contemporary tiling, underfloor heating in key areas, and thoughtfully placed lighting.

Outside, the rear garden offers a private and tranquil escape. Designed across a series of landscaped tiers, the garden comprises a large entertaining terrace, an upper lawned area, and beautifully stocked borders rich with Mediterranean planting. The easterly aspect ensures morning sun, while high hedging and mature trees provide seclusion and serenity. Side access is available on both sides, and there's an outside tap for convenience.

Situated on Culverden Park in the sought-after St. Johns area, the property is ideally placed for a host of local amenities, including independent shops, cafés, and supermarkets. St. John's Recreation Ground is moments away, and the home is well located for many of Tunbridge Wells' outstanding primary, secondary, and grammar schools - including TWGGS. For commuters, the mainline station provides regular and fast services to London, while the town's cultural and retail offerings - from the Royal Victoria Place to the iconic Pantiles - are all within easy reach.

This is a rare opportunity to acquire a refined and substantial home in a truly coveted setting - early viewing is highly recommended.
