Mount Ephraim, Tunbridge Wells

GUIDE PRICE £375,000 - £400,000. Enjoying extremely attractive views across central Tunbridge Wells from St. James to the Village, a beautifully presented top floor period apartment with a share of freehold, use of communal gardens and both residents parking and a private garage. The light and spacious property has excellent room sizes throughout including two double bedrooms - one with an en-suite shower - and an especially large lounge, again with views. It also enjoys freshly fitted carpets, a roll top bath and is offered as top of chain. The property enjoys use of pretty communal gardens to the rear, has sole use of a garage en bloc and the right to further parking at the front of the building (on a first-come-first-served basis.) A glance at the attached floorplan and photographs will give an indication as to both the size and quality of this proposition. Unsurprisingly, we would suggest making an immediate appointment to view.

SITUATION: The property enjoys a most central and convenient location on Mount Ephraim. Whilst seemingly 'removed' from the town because of its top floor position and views, the property is very much part of Tunbridge Wells and enjoys great proximity to both the Common and to the bars and restaurants at the nearby junction of Mount Ephraim and London Road. The town centre is only a short downhill walk away. There is a comprehensive range of shopping facilities at both the Royal Victoria Place Shopping Mall and the Calverley Road pedestrianised precinct. The Pantiles and old High Street too, are accessed via the Common. The town has main line stations offering fast and frequent service to both London and the south coast. Tunbridge Wells is justifiably famous for its independent retailers and restaurants, for the Pantiles, the Common and for its architecture - much of which is clearly visible from the apartment.
