    About this property

    • Constructed in 2015, by highly-regarded Cala Homes, 36 Dukes Drive is an executive family home found on the southern fringes of the vibrant and thriving town of Tunbridge Wells. This substantial home offers over 2700 square feet of well-presented accommodation, which is set across three floors with four sizeable, double bedrooms, all of which are en suite.

      The light and spacious family living areas on the ground floor provide flexibility and can be arranged to suit. Our clients have a sun-filled snug to the front of the house, a study, ideal for today's working from home needs and a separate sitting room to the rear, which overlooks and opens onto the paved terrace and garden beyond. To the rear the house enjoys an impressive open plan kitchen/dining/family room, which also overlooks and opens onto the rear garden. The modern fitted kitchen enjoys good storage and preparation space with striking, sleek granite worktops and a range of integrated appliances. A utility room with direct access to the garden and a cloakroom complete the ground floor.

      The first floor comprises three large double bedrooms; the principal bedroom not only offers ample space for freestanding furniture but enjoys a dressing area and a well appointed en suite bathroom. There are two further double bedrooms on this floor, both with bathrooms of their own. The first floor also provides good storage, with three large cupboards on the landing. A further impressive suite is set across the second floor with bedroom with a study/dressing area and en suite.

      Our clients have used the integral garage to create a very useful boot/dog room with large stainless steel sink and shower, which leads to a large store room, but this could of course be reinstated back into a traditional garage if required.

      Outside - To the rear of the house there is a good-sized, level and enclosed town garden, which our clients have lovingly planted and established to provide colour, interest and screening. The house is approached over a brick paved driveway with parking for several vehicles. Residents also benefit from access to and enjoyment of the delightful and well-maintained communal greens and children's playground.
