3 Bedroom Flat, St. Johns Road, Tunbridge Wells, TN4

GUIDE PRICE £600,000 - £625,000 Kings Estates are pleased to present this exceptional and rarely available three-bedroom ground floor conversion apartment, occupying the entire ground floor of an attractive detached period residence in the highly sought-after St Johns quarter of Tunbridge Wells. Perfectly positioned within easy reach of the town centre, mainline stations and a range of well-regarded schools, the property offers an ideal blend of lifestyle, convenience and character. Set back from the road and screened by a brick wall and mature hedging, the home enjoys a wonderful sense of privacy, with a gravel driveway providing parking for two vehicles and a welcoming approach.

Upon entering, either via the private side entrance or by the main front communal door, you are immediately struck by the scale and elegance of the accommodation. A wide and inviting entrance hall sets the tone, enhanced by warm wooden flooring that flows seamlessly throughout, complemented by high ceilings, large sash-style windows and an abundance of natural light. Beautiful period detailing is evident in every room, including deep skirtings, picture rails and ornate cornicing, all combining to create a home of both charm and substance.

The accommodation is thoughtfully arranged and highly versatile, with three generous double bedrooms leading off the hallway. The principal bedroom is particularly impressive, featuring a large bay window that floods the space with light, built-in wardrobes and a well-appointed en-suite shower room with a spacious walk-in drench shower, contemporary fittings and tiled finishes. The remaining bedrooms are equally well-proportioned, offering flexibility for family living, guest accommodation or home working, all served by a recently refurbished main bathroom. This stylish space is fitted with a bath with shower and screen over, including a drench head and handheld attachment, alongside a bath filler. Finished with tiled flooring, a side aspect window with plantation shutters, a chrome heated ladder-style towel rail and a large unit-mounted wash hand basin with mixer tap and matching tiled splashback, it combines practicality with a high-quality finish.

To the rear of the property lies the true heart of the home; a substantial open plan sitting and dining room that provides a wonderful space for both relaxing and entertaining. A feature fireplace with log burner creates a cosy focal point, while the large bay window and French doors frame attractive views over the garden and provide direct access outside. This seamless connection between indoor and outdoor living enhances the overall sense of space and makes it an ideal setting for hosting or simply unwinding.

The living space flows effortlessly into the adjoining kitchen, which has been stylishly fitted with classic shaker-style cabinetry, granite worktops and matching splashbacks. A butler sink with mixer tap sits beneath a well-placed window, while integrated appliances, including a fridge/freezer, dishwasher, a range cooker and dual aspect windows ensure both practicality and natural light. A part-glazed door to the side offers convenient access to the garden and driveway, and a useful storage cupboard houses the boiler and additional space for appliances.

Externally, the property continues to impress with a truly outstanding west-facing private garden, measuring approximately 80ft by 47ft. This expansive outdoor space is predominantly laid to lawn and bordered by mature shrubs and planting, creating a peaceful and private environment. A sandstone terrace provides the perfect spot for al fresco dining, enjoying the afternoon and evening sun, while additional features include raised sleeper beds, a gravelled herb garden area and a useful storage shed. Fully enclosed by fencing, the garden offers a safe and secure space for both children and pets, and is rarely found with properties of this type.

Further benefits include a private side entrance, a share of freehold and a long lease, along with the potential to extend (subject to the necessary planning consents), offering scope to further enhance both the space and value. Combining generous proportions, period elegance and exceptional outdoor space in a prime location, this is a home that delivers on every level and must be viewed to be fully appreciated.
