Somerville Gardens, Tunbridge Wells, Kent, TN4

Newly renovated five bedroom apartment close to the centre of Tunbridge Wells.

Description

Built circa 1890, 2 Somerville Gardens is a fine example of period charm meeting contemporary style. The property has undergone an impressive refurbishment in recent months, to provide three spacious and luxurious apartments. The impressive room proportions are typical of the period and this apartment is no exception, with a spacious reception hall, high ceilings, large sash windows and accommodation arranged across 2,815sq ft. Many of the original features are still intact, including decorative cornicing and coving, deep skirting boards, and decorative feature fireplaces.

The central hallway, with contemporary herringbone flooring, gives access to each of the ground floor bedrooms and reception room. There are two good sized bedrooms both with bay windows and lovely feature fireplaces. The spacious reception room, also with a fireplace, has a beautiful, large bay window allowing a bright outlook onto the gardens. At the far end of the hallway, and a few steps down, is the generously proportioned kitchen/breakfast room, benefiting from an abundance of light. The impressive kitchen is centred around a large island with striking quartz worktop providing plenty of preparation space. Bespoke base and wall cabinetry provide good storage and a range of integrated appliances, including Belfast style sink, and free-standing range oven. There is plenty of room for informal dining at the breakfast bar. The ground floor also benefits from a further bedroom with ensuite, a study/fourth bedroom and a beautifully styled bathroom with separate shower.

On the lower ground floor is an impressive guest bedroom suite with a lovely en-suite shower room. The additional two reception rooms are ideally placed for a gym/playroom/TV room. The lower ground floor benefits from a further shower room.

The property is accessed via a private main door entrance to the front of the building. The private garden, located at the rear of the property, has also undergone a renovation with modern paving tiles and a circular patio area.

Parking – There are three allocated parking spaces and further visitor parking on a first-come, first-serve basis.
