This very attractive 2-bedroom maisonette is situated in the heart of Tunbridge Wells. Set over 2 floors with lovely private garden, it incorporates a spacious kitchen diner, good sized accommodation throughout, and is set in a private no-through road with residents’ parking.
This maisonette is accessed on ground level and also has a lower ground floor. On the ground level, the good size reception room overlooks the front with its beautiful sash windows that have been professionally draughtproofed, lovely wooden flooring, fitted shelving, column radiator and a wonderful working fireplace, making it very cosy and snug in the winter. The current owners have made this such a great and contemporary space and even moved the door to make it more usable.
The main bedroom is adjacent and overlooks the rear garden, so is quiet and peaceful. It has a lovely, fitted carpet, new radiator and again beautifully styled. The second bedroom is smaller and ideal as a nursery or home office and has a French door leading to the upper level of the private courtyard garden.
The courtyard garden of this property is very special and thanks to its raised situation enjoys a very secluded aspect. It’s south west facing, so catches the sun all day, and has been professionally remodelled and landscaped, with Siberian larch slatted fencing, dark composite deck boards and lovely glass balustrades around a recess to the level below. Waterfall planters extend down and there are wall planters and brick steps down to the lower level and the kitchen where there is some useful outdoor storage.
The lower ground floor consists of the kitchen-diner, bathroom, useful understairs storage and a great dressing room that has been specially built, providing plentiful hanging space and space for drawers. The bathroom is very well appointed and finished with a beautiful rolltop bath and separate shower.
A few steps down and we’re in the super kitchen diner that stretches across the back of the property. One side has good space for a dining table as well as the door out to the lower terrace with steps to the higher level. The whole area has been beautifully finished with engineered wood floor throughout. The kitchen has many good-sized white shaker-style units and drawers with Corian worktops and integrated appliances, including a Rangemaster cooker, as well as a breakfast bar and a freestanding fridge freezer. The perfect room for dining, working relaxing and entertaining.
We absolutely love the location of this house, right in the heart of Tunbridge Wells with the High Street and Grove Park both just a stone’s throw away. And this property retains a real feel of peacefulness and calm with its wonderful environment.
The outdoor space is superb for this location, south west facing and so well finished and maintained. We love how private and secluded it feels: the perfect space to watch the magnificent sun sets that it enjoys.
We love the Edwardian charm and features of this property, which have been very successfully combined with contemporary styling. This is a home that you could move into and enjoy from day one.
The accommodation proportions are first class, with each room feeling spacious. The maisonette nature of this property also makes you feel like you are in a house.
The private resident’s parking for 2 cars is also a real bonus. Parking in this area is normally scarce, but thanks to the private nature of this road, there is always ample parking available.
This is such a fabulous property and one we’re really pleased to be able to show you. Please do call us to arrange a physical viewing.

One of the real highlights of Grove Avenue is its fabulous location. Situated in the heart of the vibrant spa town of Royal Tunbridge Wells, there are restaurants, cafes, shops and beautiful parks on its doorstep. The mainline station is a few steps away, as is the wonderful High Street and its variety of well-regarded restaurants and independent outlets. The historic Pantiles is also easily accessible. Further shopping opportunities are available at Royal Victoria Place and the award-winning Bluewater Shopping Centre is under 30 miles distant. If you want to escape to the coast, then the lovely seaside towns are easily accessible by car or public transport. There are many independent and state schooling options in the area, including those in the much sought-after Kent Grammar system and the mainline station offers a fast and frequent service to Central London.
