Description

Accommodation

Dating back to the 1820s and once the Royal Kentish Hotel, Kentish Mansions is one of Tunbridge Wells’ most iconic and recognisable buildings, beautifully positioned between the common and the very heart of the town. This wonderful three double bedroom apartment occupies a peaceful position on the fourth floor and offers generous, well-arranged accommodation of approximately 1,350 sq. ft., full of period character with excellent ceiling heights, cornicing and picture rails throughout.

The Living Accommodation

The communal entrance hall sets the tone for the building, with its grand proportions, wide staircase and the oldest working lift in the country. On the fourth floor, a bright landing beneath a large roof light leads into the apartment, where a wide and welcoming entrance hall, enjoying a borrowed light aspect through to the stairwell beyond, connects the principal rooms.

The kitchen / diner is well laid out with good quality integrated appliances, ample storage and workspace, together with space for casual dining adjacent to lovely rooftop views over the surrounding properties. A door connects through to the generous reception room, a wonderful light-filled space with a feature fireplace, wooden flooring and a pleasant side aspect, offering plenty of room for both comfortable seating and a more formal dining area.

Bedrooms and Bathroom

The three bedrooms are all well-proportioned doubles, arranged off a lovely long hallway. The principal bedroom is the largest, with lovely double windows, a useful dressing area tucked into the corner, engineered oak flooring and a green outlook to the front. The two further double bedrooms enjoy a delightful aspect over the common, with useful fitted storage, feature fireplaces, high ceilings, cornicing and picture rails reflecting the history of the building.

The very spacious bathroom is beautifully appointed with a large shower cubicle, a standalone bath, a heated towel rail and generous storage, with a useful linen cupboard and laundry area conveniently located adjacent.

The Building and Communal Areas

Kentish Mansions is a superb and characterful building, lovingly maintained with handsome communal areas, a grand entrance hall, a wide staircase and the oldest working lift in the country. A secure entry phone system serves both the front and rear entrances of the building.

A particular feature of the building is its rear door, which opens directly onto Chapel Place and Bedford Terrace – a charming row of Georgian properties – placing the independent shops, cafés and restaurants of the town quite literally on the doorstep.
