We've tightened what earns a Pursue. A home now needs a published valuation, a strategy that still makes money after real running costs and lender stress tests, and no listing problems that would stop a mortgage. You'll see fewer Pursues, and each one has been checked harder.

About
This beautifully presented 3/4 bedroom period property is situated on the centrally located Lime Hill Road within the heart of Tunbridge Wells.
The current owner has completely refurbished the property inside and out whilst maintaining many period features, resulting in a home that is both beautifully presented and in move-in condition.
The accommodation is exquisitely presented throughout, combining elegance with period charm.
The entrance hall is welcoming and wide, with its original Victorian archway and exposed timber floorboards, which are a feature of much of the accommodation.
To the left are the two generous reception rooms, both with charming period features including original fireplaces, high ceilings, cornicing, and sash windows.
Bi-folding wooden doors separate the two rooms, and one could certainly serve as a fourth bedroom if required.
To the rear of the entrance hall is access to the rear garden: very generous for the town centre, well secluded thanks to mature shrubs and ornamental trees and laid predominately to lawn.
On the lower ground floor there is a generous open plan kitchen / diner. The kitchen area is very practical, with a range of elegant units with wooden tops and quality integrated appliances.
The front section of the kitchen has ample space for a large dining table, with attractive shelving fitted to the fireplace recesses.
The utility room houses a washing machine and tumble dryer, and a pantry to the front.
There is also a downstairs WC and access to the rear garden, which in turn provides convenient access to the outside storage cupboard.
On the upper floors there are 3 double bedrooms and 2 bathrooms: all beautifully presented and providing lovely roof top views over the town that sits on the doorstep.
The bathroom on the first floor has a bath with shower over, and the top floor ensuite is a shower room. The mid-way landing is spacious, and could easily house a home-working space if required.
There is generous eves storage accessed from the bedroom on the top floor.
This house has an impressive exterior, with a few steps up to the smartly painted entrance door, and black wrought iron railings to the front. On road residents’ permit parking is also available.
