About
Enjoying an especially central Tunbridge Wells location but on a pleasingly peaceful street, an extremely well presented three bedroom mid terrace house.
The property is arranged over three levels and comes with the real advantages of both an en-suite and walk-in wardrobe to the upper floor, two bedrooms and a further bathroom to the first floor, and both spacious and separate lounge and dining room on the ground floor.
The property has an excellent flow and has been a beneficiary of considerable improvements in the owner's time of occupation.
A glance at the attached photographs and floorplan will give an indication as to the quality of this proposition.
There are lower maintenance gardens to both front and rear with the former being something of a suntrap and the latter giving a peaceful space in a most central location.
