A detached home found in the heart of the highly sought-after village of Speldhurst, ideally placed for the village amenities, and nearby Tunbridge Wells.
Set within this highly regarded village, the property occupies an elevated position with far-reaching views across the surrounding countryside. Offering well-balanced and adaptable accommodation, the house is further enhanced by the inclusion of the former village shop, presenting a range of possibilities for ancillary accommodation, a studio, home office or business use, subject to any necessary consents.
The heart of the home is an impressive open-plan kitchen, dining and living space, designed to suit both day-to-day family life and entertaining. The kitchen is fitted with an extensive range of cabinetry, integrated Neff appliances and a zinc-topped island with breakfast bar, with further space for a dining table.
The sitting room is subtly separated from the kitchen and dining area by a glazed partition and benefits from an elevated position within the house. A vaulted ceiling, Juliet balcony and remote-controlled rooflights combine to create a bright and airy room with a pleasant outlook over the surrounding countryside.
The principal bedroom suite is accessed through an impressive pair of 16th-century Indian doors. Featuring a vaulted ceiling, the room enjoys a peaceful aspect and benefits from a Juliet balcony and an en suite shower room. Two further double bedrooms, both with fitted wardrobes, are served by a well-appointed family bathroom.
On the lower ground floor, a versatile fourth bedroom or garden room opens directly onto the terrace through bi-fold doors and benefits from its own en suite shower room. This flexible space could provide guest accommodation, independent living or a useful work-from-home environment.
Adjoining the house, the former village shop is currently arranged as a self-contained space and presents an exciting opportunity for a variety of uses, subject to any necessary consents.
The property is approached via a driveway providing ample off-road parking and access to the double garage. The gardens are a particular feature, extending to about 0.24 acres. Predominantly laid to lawn, they are complemented by mature borders, established planting and two impressive oak trees, creating a private and well-established setting. A generous paved terrace provides an ideal space for outdoor dining and entertaining, while the open countryside beyond forms an attractive backdrop.

Speldhurst offers a genuinely thriving, and welcoming, village community that you can become completely immersed in, with beautiful surrounding countryside on the door stop and easy access to nearby towns, I think it is a location that is hard to beat.
