Description
What the owners say: We have lived in this lovely and unusual home for the past 20 years but it is time to start a new chapter in our lives. During our time here we have installed new bathrooms, updated the kitchen and installed a new gas fired central heating boiler. We loved the fact that we are in a quiet area that is also safe for children and pets and we can enjoy walks in the nearby woods. But we can also be in the centre of Tunbridge Wells in a matter of minutes. We are also close to a bus stop and it is only half a mile to the Beacon Hotel and restaurant if you fancy a meal out without having to drive.
Tunbridge Wells or, more formally Royal Tunbridge Wells, became a famous spa town in Regency times when it was frequented by the aristocracy who came to take the waters and enjoy the entertainment organised by Beau Nash. Much of this historic town was developed during that time including the famous Pantiles that now offers a delightful mix of independent shops, bars and restaurants.
The rest of the town features high street stores, a variety of eateries, individual shops, hair and beauty salons and a number of luxury and boutique hotels as well as retail parks. Entertainment facilities include a nine-screen Odeon cinema, the Trinity theatre, the well-respected Assembly Hall Theatre and exhibitions in the Amelia Scott cultural centre. For sporting enthusiasts there is the Neville Golf Club and Tunbridge Wells rugby, tennis and cricket clubs, an indoor sports and tennis centre as well as a swimming pool.
With regard to education there are a number of primary and secondary schools rated Outstanding by Ofsted including St James and St Peters’ C of E primary schools and secondary schools including Bennett Memorial Diocesan School, the St Gregory’s Catholic School as well as Tunbridge Wells Girls Grammar School and Skinners Grammar School. Claremont primary has also been judged Outstanding in various categories. You will also find excellent private schools in the area including Rosehill, The Mead, Kent College, Holmewood House and Beechwood prep and secondary school.
