3 Bedroom Detached House

A beautifully refurbished three/four-bedroom period home, set on a quiet private road in the heart of St James’, offering flexible living space, high-end finishes, off-street parking and an exceptional eco garden studio.

Perfectly suited to families seeking a peaceful yet central location, this charming period home blends original character with thoughtful, high-specification modern upgrades throughout. The property has been lovingly and comprehensively refurbished by the current owners, both internally and externally, resulting in a home that is as practical as it is stylish.

The welcoming entrance hall immediately sets the tone, leading through to a bay-fronted sitting room rich in period charm. Beautifully restored original wooden floors, a wood-burning stove, and elegant sash windows combine to create a warm, light-filled space ideal for cosy evenings or entertaining. To the rear, a stunning dining area provides a generous and sociable setting for family life, seamlessly connecting to the kitchen.

The kitchen is a true standout feature, designed and handcrafted by Johnson Bespoke, a master craftsman. Thoughtfully created to complement the character of the house, it offers excellent storage and functionality while remaining entirely in keeping with the home’s heritage. A ground-floor W.C. adds further everyday convenience.

The first floor is dedicated entirely to an impressive master bedroom, offering a peaceful retreat. The spacious double bedroom is complemented by fitted sash windows, a contemporary en-suite with underfloor heating and a steam room, as well as a beautifully appointed dressing room. The sense of space and quality throughout this level is exceptional.

On the top floor are two further generous double bedrooms, each benefitting from its own en-suite bathroom, both with underfloor heating. This arrangement offers excellent flexibility, making it ideal for older children, guests or multi-generational living.

Outside, the rear garden has been professionally landscaped by Chelsea Flower Show gold medallist Alison Weir, creating a low-maintenance yet elegant space perfect for both relaxation and entertaining. A superb eco garden studio sits to the rear, which can be used as a guest suite and is complete with a kitchenette and bathroom. This versatile space would also make an ideal home office, studio or accommodation for older children. The garden further benefits from an external kitchen area, constructed using recycled bricks and finished with a stone worktop

To the front, a newly laid cobbled driveway provides off-street parking for up to three vehicles, a valuable asset in this highly sought-after location. Subject to the usual planning permissions, the property also offers scope for further extension or development, adding exciting long-term potential.

From a technical perspective, the home has been fully re-rendered externally, completely re-wired, and fitted with a new zoned heating system, offering peace of mind alongside its aesthetic appeal. The overall specification throughout is of a notably high standard.

The location is equally compelling. Set within the popular St James’ area, the property is within easy reach of excellent state and independent schools, including St James’ Primary and Skinners Grammar School for Boys. Tunbridge Wells mainline station is close by, providing regular and convenient services into London. Local shops, cafés and green spaces are all within walking distance, while the town centre’s wide range of restaurants, amenities and retail is just a short stroll away.

Offering period charm, modern comfort, flexible accommodation and a superb garden studio, this is a standout family home in one of Tunbridge Wells’ most desirable locations.
