This fantastic family home is deceptively spacious, light and airy with a wonderful contemporary feel.
Set back from the road by a wooden fence, its gate opening onto a smart block brick terrace, this home's red brick exterior delivers plenty of kerb appeal.
The part glazed entrance door to the side of the house welcomes you into a wide hallway, its wooden effect flooring seamlessly linking it with the kitchen/dining room behind. A useful guest cloakroom, fitted under stair cupboards and a fitted shoe bench with storage above and below, with wall coat hooks make it a very practical family space.
On your left is the stylish living room flooded with light from its shuttered window. It is an exceptionally welcoming space with an open fireplace, bespoke fitted bookshelves and mid height cupboards and plenty of room for family sofas.
Across the hallway is the heart of the home, the incredible kitchen/dining room, its open plan layout making it a fantastic space for both family living and entertaining. The stylish and streamlined kitchen is well designed with cream cabinetry topped with Silestone quartz counter tops. The room is flooded with light from the bi-folding doors at the rear which can lie open to extend the living space into the garden in the warmer months. It has an integrated Neff dishwasher and space for a large range oven with a stainless steel extractor above making it a cook's dream. There is a breakfast bar overhang for your morning coffee and ample space for a dining table and chairs at the rear to enjoy the garden views.
Climbing the stairs to the first floor you reach two graceful double bedrooms and a modern family bathroom with a double ended bath and separate shower cubicle.
A further flight of stairs takes you up to the third luxurious principal bedroom which benefits from a dressing area with fitted cabinetry and a contemporary en-suite making it a romantic and restful retreat.
Outside at the rear its garden is laid mainly to lawn with a paved terrace next to the house, ideal for summer dining. It is fully enclosed making it a safe sanctuary for children and pets and there is a wooden shed for storage and a gate for street access too.
Set on a popular residential street only a short walk from local shops, sought after schools and excellent transport links this cleverly modernised home delivers 21st Century living in a fantastic location. A must see!

Area Information: Southborough, Tunbridge Wells
Southborough lies just a couple of miles north outside the historic spa town of Tunbridge Wells with its big retail names and its Georgian colonnade, the Pantiles, offering a vibrant café culture.
It also sits just south of Tonbridge, with the A26 passing through it offering easy access to the A21 which leads to the M25.
Southborough Hub with its new medical centre, library, theatre/hall, coffee shop, community rooms, and town council offices, together with retail space is within walking distance of the property. The Yew Tree and Ridgewaye Playing Fields are also close by, with open green spaces for walking and recreational sport. There are also allotments either side of the fields allowing you to grow your own fruit and vegetables on your doorstep.
Southborough Common, situated north of the village, is a conservation area where cricket has been played for more than 200 years.
If you're a runner, dog owner or casual walker, the woodland area of the Southborough Common, nestled behind St. Peters Church, is a very beautiful space. Ancient and young trees slope down to a stream with access to Holden Pond and Bidborough and Speldhurst villages beyond.
Excellent secondary, independent, preparatory, and private schools can be found in both Tunbridge Wells and Tonbridge, while Southborough and Bidborough have their very own primary schools. The property is also within the catchment areas for the 6 highly regarded and sought-after Tunbridge Wells and Tonbridge Grammar Schools.
Southborough enjoys many local independent shops with an award-winning hairdresser, The Gallery, and restaurant Tallow, which has just been named The Good Food Guide's Best UK Local Restaurant 2023 both are a short walk away. With additional convenience stores, a baker, a butcher, and pubs such as The Hand & Sceptre and The Imperial nearby, all your local needs are met.
The nearest mainline station to Southborough is at High Brooms with fast and frequent train services to London Charing Cross, London Bridge, Canon Street and Victoria. There are also mainline stations on the same line at Tonbridge and Tunbridge Wells. Tonbridge Station is 2 miles away and with two lines passing through, it provides on average 34 trains a day from Tonbridge to London Bridge in as little as 40-minute journeys. There is also a luxury coach service, which drops up and collects near to the property, straight to Canary Wharf, the city, Embankment, and other central London destinations. It is half the cost of rail travel enabling you to slumber or work using its Wi-Fi connectivity as you travel.
