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
Open house Saturday 4th April - please call our sales team to book in your appointment.
A substantial and imposing 1920s double-fronted detached home, positioned on a generous double-width plot within one of the most sought-after roads in the highly regarded St James’ area of Tunbridge Wells.
This is a home that immediately conveys presence and permanence, held within the same ownership for over three decades, a clear reflection of how well it has served as a long-term family base.
To the rear, the house enjoys a particularly special setting, backing directly onto the open expanse of Grosvenor & Hilbert Park.
This provides not only a beautiful green outlook but also immediate access to woodland walks, playing fields, a community orchard, and a children’s play area.
There is also a convenient pedestrian route through to High Brooms mainline station, making this location as practical as it is picturesque.
Internally, the accommodation is arranged across three floors, with a natural sense of flow and proportion typical of the era.
The ground floor offers well-balanced living space, including a full-depth through reception room, creating a bright dual-aspect environment ideal for both everyday family life and entertaining.
A kitchen/dining room sits alongside, complemented by a downstairs cloakroom and direct access to the garage and adjoining workshop.
Upstairs, the first floor provides four well-proportioned bedrooms served by a spacious family bathroom with separate shower.
The top floor adds further versatility, with an additional bedroom, cloakroom, and access into the eaves, presenting clear potential to create a larger ensuite if desired.
Externally, the plot is a key feature.
There is ample parking to both sides and the front of the property, in addition to a large garage, offering flexibility for growing families or multi-vehicle households.
With Tunbridge Wells town centre under a mile away, and a selection of well-regarded schools within walking distance, this is a home that combines scale, setting, and long-term potential offering the next owner an opportunity to both enjoy and evolve the space over time, subject to the usual consents.
