A striking & impressive duplex apartment within this imposing period conversion & smart gated development, well placed for schools, road & rail links and the amenities of Tunbridge Wells.
The Manor is a substantial period villa, located in a private gated park tucked away on the north-eastern rural fringe of Tunbridge Wells. This character property enjoys a convenient position just 1.4 miles from the town centre and within easy access of the A21. The building, which benefits from the high ceilings and generous proportions typical of properties of this period, was originally constructed for the Siemens family in the late 19th Century and converted into apartments at the end of the 20th Century.
The property boasts many period features including large sash windows and high ceilings. The large and impressive reception room has parquet flooring and feature fireplace with marble hearth, a large bay window with French doors onto the terrace.
The fitted kitchen has base and wall units providing good storage, with a range of integrated appliances, space for a free-standing American-style fridge freezer and French doors to the communal gardens. A good-sized study, ideal for today's working from home needs and a downstairs cloakroom complete this floor.
On the first floor are two very generous double bedrooms, both with built in wardrobes, en suite bath/shower rooms and both enjoying access to the private first floor balcony with views over the communal gardens and grounds
Outside - Badgers Holt is approached via electrically-operated wrought iron gates from Blackhurst Lane. The brick-paved private road serving the estate provides vehicular access to the garage at lower ground floor level, to the rear of The Manor, and leads round to the front of the building where visitor parking is available adjacent to the main entrance.
Above the garage, 2 The Manor enjoys a private area of terrace with further communal space for enjoyment of the wooded surroundings and a lawned garden, which is also private to The Manor, lies to the southwest of here. A further expanse of meadow interspersed with specimen trees and with mature shrubs and trees to the boundaries lies beyond, occasional benches offering opportunities for enjoyment of the verdant surroundings and for moments of quiet contemplation. An enclosed children’s play area lies towards the south-eastern periphery of the gardens.
