4 bed detached house for sale

The Drive, Tonbridge, Kent TN9

If you want to live in a location with first-class educational facilities, close to a mainline station and easy access to supermarkets and shops, this beautifully extended and refurbished detached family home could be the answer. Situated along a wide avenue in Tonbridge, it is close to good primary schools and Outstanding secondary and private schools and just a short stroll from the station where trains to London Bridge only take about half an hour.

This characterful property is set far back from the road with a spacious block paved forecourt providing off road parking for numerous vehicles and leads to the garage with internal access. The front door opens into a long hallway with mirrored storage cupboards and wood effect Amtico flooring that flows throughout the ground floor. There is a shower room, a utility room and a door to the ‘star of the show' – the 35ft kitchen/dining and family space. This awe-inspiring hub of the household includes underfloor heating and eight bi-fold doors to the terrace.

A large seating area adjacent to five of the bi fold doors offers lovely views over the garden, while family and friends can sit round the dining table enjoying a meal prepared in the impressive kitchen. This includes flat fronted units with quartz worktops housing various upmarket appliances and a large central island with a gas hob. There is a door to the playroom/study that can also be accessed from the garage and a charming 24ft sitting room with an angled fireplace.

Off the galleried landing on the first floor you will find a single bedroom and three doubles including the large dual aspect principal with an ensuite bathroom. Another double has fitted cupboards and an ensuite bathroom while the guest room has an ensuite shower.

The superb terrace spans the width of the property while the rest of the large and attractive garden includes a spacious lawn bordered by shrub beds and trees. There are steps up to a covered loggia with a patio and a charming pathway to another seating area, so you can follow the sun all day and the whole garden is surrounded by high hedging and close board fencing.
