Description

Set on the periphery of the highly sought-after village of Penshurst, this beautifully presented and thoughtfully renovated four-bedroom semi-detached home occupies an exceptional position within a private development of just 12 properties, enjoying seven acres of glorious communal grounds. Coming to the market for the first time in 16 years, this much-loved family home has been carefully enhanced by the current owners to create a stylish home, ideal for modern family living.

The entrance hall sets the tone for the accommodation, with a generous boot room and downstairs cloakroom. Beyond, this opens into an impressive 28ft open-plan kitchen, dining and reception room, a wonderfully light and sociable space with beautiful garden views from every window. The Howdens kitchen is fitted with elegant shaker-style cabinetry and has ample preparation space along with a range cooker and other appliances. A central island provides an informal place for breakfast and entertaining, while also creating a subtle divide between the kitchen and living areas.

To one side is a relaxed seating area centred around a woodburner, complemented by bespoke cabinetry either side, while the other side offers space for a large dining table, making this an ideal setting for both everyday meals and larger gatherings. At the far end, French doors and extensive glazing flood the room with natural light and providing direct access to the private decking and beautiful gardens beyond.

The first floor hosts three well-proportioned double bedrooms, which are served by a spacious family bathroom featuring a separate bath and shower.

The top floor is dedicated to the beautiful principal suite. Exceptionally spacious and filled with natural light, it benefits from a dressing area with built-in wardrobes and an elegant en-suite bathroom, again with both a separate bath and shower. There is also a conveniently located utility room just off the en-suite. 

Outside, the property benefits from a private decked terrace with electric awning and a wonderful south-westerly aspect, perfectly positioned to capture the afternoon and evening sun, but beyond this lies the real jewel of this unique setting - approximately seven acres of beautifully maintained communal grounds, which includes a formal lawned area and less formal meadow area beyond. There's also a children's play area, football pitch and table tennis, all within this idyllic and peaceful setting on the edge of Penshurst village. 

A substantial double garage and additional off-street parking for two or three vehicles completes this exceptional family home.

When Deborah Richards founded Maddisons Residential in 2013 she wanted to build an estate agency based on truly exceptional service, proactive and honest advice and an utter passion to sell a client's property for the best price, to the best buyer, in line with their timescales. She combined her many years of working in wealth management with renovating and selling numerous properties, to deliver the ultimate estate agency experience. Now, with an established team and a dominance in family properties in all core Tunbridge Wells' postcodes, this aspiration has become a reality. Maddisons Residential receive over 90% of their business from client referrals, have been voted to be an "Exceptional Agent" in 2025 in the Best Estate Agency Guide, have countless 5 star ratings on Google and consistently exceed industry averages in terms of % of asking price achieved and time to secure a sale. They also have a fierce reputation for holding a deal together once an offer is received, with an envied fall through rate of just 7%. In 2017, Maddisons branched into lettings, where this overriding objective to deliver truly exceptional service continued. Many landlords cite that Maddisons are their "trusted advisor" on their investment property portfolio. Maddisons' strapline that excellence is not a skillset, it's an attitude, are words that they live and breathe by, and they cannot wait to show you how.
