2 bed flat for sale

Ferndale, Hetton Lodge TN2

Set back from the road and accessed via a gravelled drive, this beautiful apartment forms the entire ground floor of a large and attractive Victorian property, comprising of just 4 flats. The two-bedroom property has been beautifully renovated by the current owner and accordingly is presented in first class condition. The accommodation is extremely spacious and well-proportioned, with many period features retained throughout, which have been very successfully combined with contemporary styling. It also benefits from a thoughtfully landscaped private garden, allocated parking for 2 cars, further use of the communal grounds, and no onward chain.

The flat has the advantage of being accessed via the main and original front door to the building, which really sets the tone for the elegant accommodation within. A convenient inner porch is laid to original encaustic tiles and provides the perfect space for coats and boots, with a handy fitted cupboard keeping everything hidden from view. Original double doors lead to the beautifully styled kitchen, fitted with an extensive range of deep blue Shaker cupboards, marble worktops, and quality integrated appliances which include a fitted oven, hob, dishwasher and fridge / freezer. A door leads to a small utility area, with plumbing for a dishwasher, shelves and cupboards for storage, and a back door provides useful access to the side of the property and the private garden.

The adjacent reception room is a beautiful space, flooded with light thanks to the double aspect with a huge bay window overlooking the gardens, and a further window above the stunning fireplace. This room has ample space for seating and more formal dining. The master bedroom is a peaceful and elegant space, extremely generous in size, incorporating a large bay window to the private garden, extensive wardrobes and an original fireplace. The current owner has set up a homeworking area in one of the alcoves, which the room certainly has space for. The second bedroom is another excellent double, with large bay windows overlooking the communal gardens and a further original fireplace. The family bathroom is equally as appealing, being generous in proportions and with ample room for a free-standing bath and separate shower cubicle.

The owner has equally invested in the outside space, creating a beautifully paved private garden, with mature planting, a small children’s play area and a shed, all securely gated and providing the perfect space for relaxing and entertaining. This garden has direct, gated access to the driveway and allocated parking, and further access to the communal gardens, which the owners of the building have invested in to include a larger children’s play area.

The flat is superbly located within walking distance of Tunbridge Wells town centre, with its range of shops, restaurants and cafes. There are excellent local school options close at hand, including St James cep Primary School and the coveted grammar schools. The mainline station at High Brooms is just a short walk away. Dunorlan Park is within easy distance, with its excellent playground, café and extensive walks.

The flat is offered on a share of freehold basis, and with a current service charge of £150 pcm.
