The Old School House, Langton Road, Royal Tunbridge Wells, TN3 9SS

Situated in a semi-rural village in an area of outstanding natural beauty, this fantastic home benefits from leafy woodland to the side, a picturesque village green nearby and the popular public house a short walk away.

The village's highly regraded primary school, recreation ground and village hall are also within easy reach.

You have the best of both worlds, as it is also a short distance from local shops, sought after schools and excellent transport links into London.

With an intriguing history as the former school house, this home has been sympathetically converted and extended by the current owners to create a spacious family home, which has retained much of its original charm.

Set back from the road by high hedging and a low wall, iron gates open onto a gravelled driveway, with parking for multiple cars.

The home's striking exterior of stone walls, pitched roofs and handsome windows give a nod to its architectural heritage.

The main entrance, accessed through a useful boot room, leads into a grand reception hallway with a beamed vaulted ceiling and a galleried landing above.

However, the family usually use the left-hand side entrance, which opens into a hallway, with a truly unique built in fish tank giving glimpses of the dining room behind, that leads into the utility room and kitchen beyond.

The kitchen/breakfast room in the extension is flooded with light from its large roof lantern, rear windows and French doors that open into the garden.

It is beautifully finished and fully equipped as you would expect from a house of this quality with bespoke cabinetry separating and housing Neff appliances.

Light bounces off the gleaming countertops which compliment the contrasting paintwork of the Shaker style cabinetry and a large island with a round oak wooden chopping board on top of a curved cupboard, provides a breakfast bar overhang for up to six bar stools.

The hand-crafted bespoke cabinets deliver on every level with pan drawers, larder cupboards, and a hidden coffee pantry.

Next door a charming sitting room, currently set up as a home office, with French doors opening into the garden is a very versatile space, given its proximity to the kitchen.

Beyond, also with access into the garden and a useful guest cloakroom, is the snug. It is a perfect space for an informal tv room for teenagers or a playroom for younger children.

In the middle of the house is the elegant drawing room with its double aspect windows creating lots of natural light.

It is a very generous space with plenty of room for family living and entertaining. A fireplace with a stone mantlepiece and warm wooden flooring add character and charm to the room.

At the front is the dining room brightened by its large front windows and enjoying the playful views of the fitted fish tank.

A spiral staircase adds interest and leads up to a mezzanine first floor space that works wonderfully as a family room but could easily double as a fifth bedroom, depending on your needs.

The first floor, also accessed from the formal reception hallway to a wide galleried landing, has four double bedrooms, two with double aspect light and all with leafy views.

The principal bedroom benefits from an en-suite shower room and bedroom two has an en-suite with cloakroom facilities and a dressing area with fitted storage.

The stylish bathroom completes the floor with a freestanding roll top bath and a separate walk in shower enclosure.

Its rear aspect window reflects light off its white fittings and contemporary tiles for a soothing bathing experience.

Outside, the pretty garden is private with paved terracing beside the house, perfect for summer dining, an area of lawn, trees, and stocked flower beds.

It is fully enclosed by mature hedging and fencing making it a safe sanctuary for children and pets and a brick storage shed set into the rear of the house provides storage.

There is gated driveway access to the side too. This unique property skilfully combines historic charm with contemporary family friendly living in an idyllic semi-rural setting. A must see!
