Bedford Terrace, Tunbridge Wells, Kent, TN1

A timeless period gem within this iconic Grade II Listed terrace, ideally placed for the High Street, Pantiles and station.


Description

Instantly recognisable as one of Tunbridge Wells' most handsome Georgian terraces, this private pedestrian walk is a much admired feature of the original town. Each property in the row has its own character and configuration and No.4 is presented beautifully with its elegant styling complementing the classic period features.

High ceilings on all floors accommodate tall sash windows throughout, that flood the house with light and enable its delightful outlook across Tunbridge Wells’ historic ‘Village’ area with glimpses of The Common beyond.

This three bedroom home offers class and comfort in equal measure and has been configured with a front-to-back kitchen/dining room on the ground floor with the sitting room across the front of the house on the first floor, as was Georgian practice. A double bedroom on the lower ground floor has the benefit of an adjacent bathroom and its own outside access via stairs to the front.

A further surprise, and great asset, is the wonderful south facing, well screened, paved terrace garden, ideal for outdoor entertaining.

Parking: Bedford Terrace is in Zone A. Residents are able to apply for two permits per household and visitors vouchers via TWBC.
