Property description
An impressive four bedroom period house in a sought after location with access to Calverley Park
Description
This impressive and beautifully presented period townhouse occupies an enviable position on the highly sought-after Mountfield Gardens, just a short walk (approximately 0.2 miles) from Tunbridge Wells mainline station and the entrance to Calverley Grounds. Combining elegant period character with versatile accommodation suited to modern living, the property retains a wealth of original features, including moulded cornicing, period fireplaces, sash windows and attractive stained-glass detailing.
The property is entered via original double doors with leaded-light panes and a decorative fanlight, leading into an entrance vestibule and welcoming hallway. An impressive staircase rises through all three floors of the home. To the ground floor, the elegant front reception room enjoys a square bay window with delightful views towards Calverley Grounds, complemented by a marble fireplace, high ceilings and ornate cornicing. A second reception room, currently arranged as a dining room/snug, features a sash window overlooking the rear garden, an attractive marble fireplace and original exposed floorboards.
The spacious kitchen/breakfast room benefits from a dual aspect and direct access to the garden. Fitted with a range of painted wooden cabinetry, quartz worktops, a deep Butler sink with Devol brass taps, floor-to-ceiling pantry cupboard, Rangemaster electric oven with Britannia extractor hood, and space for a dishwasher, it provides an ideal space for family living and entertaining. Stairs lead down to a generous family room or home office, together with a cloakroom, separate utility room with fitted work surfaces, stainless steel sink, plumbing for a washing machine and space for a tumble dryer. A substantial storage room with fitted cupboards and drawers completes the lower ground floor accommodation.
On the first floor, a spacious landing leads to a magnificent drawing room, which could also serve as an additional bedroom. This elegant room enjoys views towards Calverley Grounds from its bay window and features a marble fireplace and decorative cornicing. Also on this floor is a double bedroom with built-in wardrobe and period fireplace surround, alongside a stylish shower room fitted with a drench-head shower, pedestal wash basin and limestone tiling. An adjacent bathroom features a charming claw-foot freestanding bath, Savoy wash basin, low-level WC and airing cupboard housing a large unvented hot water cylinder.
The second floor provides two further double bedrooms. The principal front-facing bedroom enjoys views over Calverley Grounds, twin sash windows, a period cast-iron fireplace and extensive fitted wardrobes. The rear bedroom benefits from elevated views across the town, fitted storage and an original fireplace.
Externally, the property is set back from the road behind a brick boundary wall with a small front garden creating an attractive first impression. The landscaped rear garden features mature planting, contemporary fencing and a sunny courtyard area that enjoys the afternoon sun. A useful pathway provides access through to Grove Hill Road.
