Yew Tree Road, Southborough, Tunbridge Wells (no chain), TN4 0BG

This beautiful 1920s house, loved by the same family for over five decades, delivers plenty of kerb appeal with its decorative part timbered exterior and distinctive angled windows.

It is screened from the road by a low fence with hedging behind, a paved off street driveway to the side fronting the integral garage. A pretty front garden with neat areas of lawn and stocked flower beds edge the pathway that winds up to the house.

The handsome oak entrance door opens into a part glazed porch and the entrance hallway beyond, with a deep under stair cupboard to keep the space clutter free.

To the left light pours into the spacious living/dining room through its front bay window. It is a welcoming space with wooden flooring and a fireplace that adds character and warmth in the colder months. There is ample space for family sofas to the front and a dining table to the rear, beside the French windows which can lie open in the summer months bringing views of the garden in and extending your living space onto the terrace.

Returning to the hallway to the front is the family room. It is currently used as a second reception room but is a versatile space and could easily double as a home office or children`s playroom.

Behind is the kitchen/breakfast room which is brightened by dual aspect light. There are plenty of cupboards, top and bottom, countertops and space for an oven and additional appliances. Double sinks sit under the side window and there is room for a table and chairs for informal dining at the rear. A lobby to the side provides access to an outside bin store area and front garden beyond, a storage cupboard housing the boiler, a useful guest cloakroom and the utility room.

The spacious utility room with access into the rear garden, has fitted cabinetry and space for appliances.

Climbing the stairs to the first floor with a mid height window delivering wonderful views, the wide landing has rooms running off it at all angles.

There are five bedrooms on this floor, two of which are generous doubles, all with fitted storage and washing facilities.

The bathroom has a window that brings in natural light and a shower over the bath.

Outside the beautiful garden is wonderfully large and private with a paved terrace, perfect for summer dining, at the rear of the house. The areas of lawn are edged by specimen trees, mature planting, and stocked flower beds making it a gardeners dream and a beautiful outlook from the house. A paved pathway winds around the main area of garden, giving easy access and a pond sits centrally to the rear. A further section of lawned garden sits to the side offering an ideal space for children to play on or to grow a kitchen garden. Mature trees provide leafy privacy and beautiful creative planting make it a garden for all seasons. It is fully enclosed by fencing providing a safe sanctuary for children and pets and there is access into the garden storage room and garage, which meet all your family`s storage needs.
