SOLD BY FLYING FISH PROPERTIES TUNBRIDGE WELLS This fantastic apartment sits on the first floor of its grand Victorian house which has been sensitively converted into six flats, keeping the gracious proportions of the rooms.

Its own front door opens into a wide hallway with a deep cupboard and access to the loft area providing plenty of storage options to keep the space clutter free.

First on your left is the living/dining room which is flooded with light from its beautiful bay window overlooking the quiet residential street below. It is plenty big enough for large comfortable sofas to relax in or to entertain and dine at a dining table.

The kitchen which is open plan to the living room is nicely separated by being set back behind an arched opening. It is finished to a modern standard with natural light from its own large front aspect window and there is ample counter top space with cabinets top and bottom separating appliances that will be included.

Returning to the hallway past the generously sized bathroom is the bedroom. It has a very bright feeling with light flooding in through its large rear aspect window overlooking the lush green communal gardens below.

The apartment benefits greatly from its own off-road parking space to the rear of the house beyond the communal gardens which are laid mainly to lawn with mature leafy borders and trees affording great privacy.

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 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. Garlinge Road is also within the catchment areas for the 5 highly regarded and sought after Tunbridge Wells and Tonbridge Grammar Schools.
