About this property

  • A striking penthouse apartment in this modern purpose-built block of just six units, built in 2007.

    14 Bredbury House enjoys a wonderful private aspect being the only apartment on this level and features a balcony which runs around the periphery providing outdoor space and views to three sides. The property is nicely presented with a neutral colour tone and benefits from large windows for appreciation of the views and for maximising the natural light.

    The property is located in a very convenient position being just yards away from the open spaces of the Tunbridge Wells Common which lies on the other side of Mount Ephraim, enabling a walk of approximately 0.4 miles to the town centre and 0.6 miles to the mainline station.

    The generously proportioned open plan kitchen/dining/sitting room spans the eastern side of the apartment, with doors out to the widest part of the balcony providing a lovely outlook over the Common and space for outdoor furniture. The contemporary-style kitchen is well-fitted with appliances including a fridge/freezer, microwave oven, electric oven, washing machine and a gas hob.

    There are two good-sized bedrooms (one en suite), both with doors out to the balcony, and a family bathroom.

    14 Bredbury is accessed via a lift directly up to the top floor, with an alternative staircase, and would be ideal for downsizers needing a very convenient Tunbridge Wells base, or as a 'lock up and leave' or investment opportunity.

    The allocated parking space in the forecourt can accommodate two cars, and there is further visitors' parking.

    View payable Stamp Duty for this property

A smart approach, allocated parking, three private terraces and a location that is easy for the town and road links Bredbury House offers ease of living and longevity. This apartment would be a lovely permanent home in Tunbridge Wells, an ideal lock up and leave, or investment property.
