Description

Enjoying a most impressive private entrance and beautiful views across communal gardens and the Common towards Mount Ephraim, a particularly spacious and 'period feature rich' two bedroom grand maisonette with wonderful room sizes, impressive bay windows and fireplaces and a most convenient location - given also its proximity to Tunbridge Wells town centre just a short walk away from the Common. A glance at the attached photographs and floorplan will give an indication as to the size and quality of this proposition being, as it is, created from the most impressive principal reception rooms of this original 1870's period property. Well maintained and forming part of a block that has recently been externally decorated and re-roofed, the property enjoys use of a shared communal garden in the direction of the Common.
