A 3 double bedroom period property in the St. Johns quarter of Tunbridge Wells offering with double glazed sash windows, a wood burner to the lounge and views across St. Johns Park.
A particularly impressive three double bedroom mid terraced property in a popular and attractive St. Johns location which has been extensively remodelled and refurbished by the owner who originally bought the property as two separate apartments. The property benefits tremendously from a number of attractive period features and decorative flourishes, including original floorboards and doors throughout the property that have been stripped, sanded and finished, the installation of double glazed sash windows and Plantation shutters as well as bi fold doors to the rear garden. There is also a wood burner in the lounge. The front of the property looks directly over St. Johns Park and offers excellent access to a number of highly regarded schools, some metro style supermarkets and further well regarded public houses and restaurants.
Subject to the necessary permissions being obtainable we consider there is good potential for further development to the property in the form of a loft conversion to take it to a four bedroom (and possibly two bathroom) home. Properties of this standard and with this location and outlook are rarely available and to this end we would encourage all interested parties to make an immediate appointment to view.
