Waterworks House, Kiln Lane, Tonbridge, TN11 8RT

What the sellers say: “ Waterworks House is a real hug of a home, the shapes of the towers give a strongly comforting feeling. The thick walls keep the house cool in the summer and warm in the winter.

It is a beautiful space to entertain friends and family. In the winter, the house really comes into its own with a wonderful gothic feel and a beautiful courtyard garden.

Beyond the courtyard lies a truly magical woodland garden. The trees are gently uplit and beautifully outlined by handcrafted festoon lighting. Creating the atmosphere of a secluded, secret garden.

Tucked away, just around the corner from the High Street, the Grade II listed Waterworks House was formerly a waterworks pumping station and part of the neighbouring Hall Place Estate.

This unique property has been lovingly refurbished, with fine attention to detail, to create a luxurious and stylish home.

The well-considered layout, wrap-around garden and courtyard make it ideal for modern family life and entertaining.

The primary reception rooms comprise two octagonal areas within the towers, one is currently used as a cosy sitting room with a feature log burner and the other, a split-level family room/study with a high vaulted ceiling and doors opening to the terrace.

The contemporary open-plan kitchen and breakfast area provide a bespoke range of cabinetry, including a pantry cupboard, integrated appliances, and a central island with a breakfast bar.

The adjacent dining area benefits from dual doors that open directly onto the terrace, creating a seamless connection for indoor/outdoor entertaining.

A discreet pocket door leads to the utility and boot rooms, a dedicated coat cupboard, and a downstairs W.C. With a Japanese toilet, which in turn provides access to the integrated garage.

On the first floor, overlooking the courtyard gardens and tower, the triple-aspect principal bedroom suite with Velux and a feature round window benefits from a chic en-suite bathroom with a standalone bath, walk-in shower, starburst tiles, and dual dressing areas.

There are three further bedrooms, all with modern, starburst-tiled en suite shower rooms, and two also enjoy vaulted ceilings.

Behind the striking open spiral staircase, there is a backlit wine rack and the stairs lead to a tower room with panoramic views over the surrounding cottage gardens.

Waterworks House is approached via a private, paved driveway, which provides generous off-road parking and leads to additional garaging.

To the front, well-stocked flower beds with a path lead to the front door, with an external pedestrian gate leading to the rear.

The charming courtyard rear garden is predominantly paved and provides superb areas for al fresco entertaining.

In addition to the main gardens, a peaceful and private garden area features gravel walkways and a variety of mature specimen trees, with seating areas perfectly placed to appreciate the home's stunning architecture.
