A beautifully presented, substantial, family house enjoying a tucked away position whilst ideally placed for the grammar schools and amenities of the town.
Built in the late 1940s, Honnington has been extended and updated over time, to create a sizeable, welcoming, and very attractive family home sat on a surprisingly large plot, found at the end of a private road, in this highly convenient residential area of Tunbridge Wells. Carefully maintained by our clients for the last 25 years, Honnington is light and spacious and immaculately presented throughout providing family-friendly accommodation.
On entering, the reception hall leads to an impressive formal sitting room, with feature fireplace and large picture window from which to admire the garden. There are two further reception rooms, one of which is used by our clients as a study to accommodate today's working from home needs and one which is used as a more formal dining room with a striking vaulted ceiling and glass lantern, with French doors opening directly to the garden; both of these rooms offer flexibility and can be used to suit individual needs.
The stylish kitchen/breakfast room, which is perfect for more informal dining is beautifully fitted with a handmade 'Woodwork' shaker- style kitchen, with attractive base and wall cabinetry providing good storage with some integrated appliances and space for a large Range cooker, with a pantry that offers ample additional storage. The adjoining utility room offers further storage, space for a fridge-freezer and butler sink, with stable door opening to the rear garden. A shower room with W.C. completes the ground floor.
The first-floor comprises four spacious bedrooms, with the addition of a well-appointed family bathroom, and separate wc. There is also access to the large loft space, which offers much scope for conversion subject to all necessary consents.
Outside - The garden to the rear is a notable feature of the property with established raised beds and borders, specimen trees and planting providing much colour and interest. A raised paved terrace with summer house is the perfect spot for outdoor dining and relaxing. The generous expanse of lawn, is perfect for child's play and there is a screened vegetable garden for the green-fingered wishing to be more self-sufficient.
The property is approached over a driveway providing off-street parking for several cars and access to the attached garage.

Not only was I impressed at just how beautifully presented the house is, both inside and out, but I also love the garden at Honnington, it is such a wonderful attribute and very unexpected for a town-based home. Everything for the day-to-day is on the doorstep and you are so well placed for the extensive choice of schools, travel links and facilities in Tunbridge Wells and Tonbridge.
