Stunning 4-bedroom family home in Bidborough, recently renovated to create spacious, family friendly accommodation on a large corner plot, with planning permission granted for a two storey extension.
This well-appointed four-bedroom family home, located on the Bidborough borders, has the perfect accommodation for the family market, with a corner plot of a 1/3rd of an acre and a layout arranged to maximise natural light and access to the rear garden. It is the ideal choice for families seeking comfort and practicality.
The house was purchased by the current owners just over 6 years ago, and they have since lovingly completed a programme of renovation, with some rooms reconfigured, and the result is now a spacious home, with the perfect layout of accommodation for the family market. The front porch opens to the spacious entrance hall, laid to original parquet floor, which was discovered beneath the fitted carpets and restored to its former glory. A WC it situated to the right, and straight ahead is the wonderful dine in kitchen, which now enjoys an open connection to the adjacent sitting room, with an attractive brick faced open fire and sliding doors to the rear garden. The kitchen itself is equipped with a generous island, quality integrated appliances, quartz countertops, and pale grey Shaker-style units. French doors lead to the garden and the terrace that flanks this side of the house.
On the other side of the kitchen, the family room features a wonderful picture window, overlooking the garden, and further bifold doors provide easy access, creating a seamless indoor-outdoor flow. This room has been fitted with bespoke shelving and cabinetry, creating excellent storage.
Upstairs there are four bedrooms, the master of which enjoys its own ensuite bathroom and private balcony, and a further family bathroom is fitted with both a bath and shower. All has again been refurbished to a high standard.
The generous corner plot means that this house has a large garden to the rear, plus a further generous garden to the front and a spacious driveway which provides parking for three cars. Further on-road parking is available if needed. The gardens to both the front and rear feature a wealth of mature shrubs, trees and plants, with the rear laid to terrace and lawn. The house has a slightly elevated position, and so is very secluded, whilst also enjoying far-reaching views.
A definite further advantage of this house is that planning permission has been granted for a two-storey side extension, which would add a generous hall with a boot room and utility room, accessed from the drive, as well as two additional bedrooms with an ensuite bathroom. Full details can be seen on the Tunbridge Wells Planning Portal under reference 24/00631/FULL.
The location of this house is first class, being conveniently located close to grammar schools, local amenities, and the mainline station, with easy access to the town centres of Tonbridge and Tunbridge Wells.
All in all, this property provides a perfect balance of beautifully styled, spacious accommodation, with future potential if desired, making it a compelling choice for families wanting to take advantage of the excellent amenities that the area enjoys.
