Court Road, Tunbridge Wells, Kent, TN4

A substantial four bedroom period house with off-road parking and a pretty west facing garden situated in a quiet residential road within the Molyneux Park conservation area
close to the centre of the town.



A substantial detached house built circa 1900 conveniently located near Mount Ephraim on the northwest side of the town within the attractive Molyneux Park Conservation area which boasts very attractive period property set in wide, leafy roads with easy access to the centre of the town which provides an impressive variety of shops, restaurants, cafes and other services.

The accommodation is arranged over two floors and the house retains many of its original features from when it was built in the late Victorian/Edwardian period – this includes original cornicing, fireplaces and wood block flooring. On the ground floor there are two reception rooms with high ceilings and attractive fireplaces, a kitchen/breakfast room with a pantry, an office, cloakroom and a large conservatory which opens onto the garden and a large utility room - both of which were more recent additions. On the first floor there are four bedrooms – one with a dressing room and another with an en suite shower room and a further family bathroom. There is a very large attic space which may be suitable for conversion, subject to the usual consents.

Outside and to the front of the house there is off road parking space for two or three cars (the original integral garage was converted into the office). The rear garden is delightful, a patio area running along the back of the house provides a practical area for sitting out and entertaining, this in turn leads onto a good length of lawn flanked by mature plants and shrubs with a separate area at the bottom with a sizable workshop and a further storage shed & green house. A side gate gives access to the front of the house & there is external lighting & a water tap.
