The property

Approximate Gross Internal Area: 861 Sq Ft / 80 Sq M

Tucked away in a peaceful cul-de-sac yet moments from the town centre, this generous second-floor apartment delivers space, convenience and modern comfort in equal measure. A lift serves all floors and brings you directly to the front door, where a welcoming hallway with multiple built-in cupboards sets the tone for the home’s outstanding storage. From here the layout flows into an exceptionally large open-plan living/kitchen/dining space-ideal for everyday life and effortless entertaining. There’s ample room to zone a comfortable lounge and a full-size dining table, while the kitchen area is fitted with a full suite of integrated appliances and plentiful worktop and cupboard space to keep the look clean and uncluttered.

Both bedrooms are genuine doubles and each benefits from its own en-suite, creating superb privacy for sharers, visiting guests or a home-office/guest arrangement. The principal bedroom has fitted wardrobes with sliding doors, and the second double is also well served by built-in storage, helping everything stay neatly out of sight. The en-suites are smart and practical, each designed for day-to-day comfort without compromising on style. Throughout the apartment, thoughtful storage continues into the living area with additional sliding-door cupboards-an uncommon advantage in modern apartments and a real lifestyle win.

Practical touches are everywhere: Gas central heating and double glazing for year-round comfort and efficiency; level access via the lift for easy coming and going with shopping or luggage; and a well-planned open-plan core that makes the most of the footprint. The overall impression is of a turnkey home that you can move straight into and enjoy from day one.

Outside, residents benefit from two communal green areas to the side and rear-quiet spots for a morning coffee or a breath of fresh air-and there’s an allocated parking space to the rear of the building, with additional open visitors’ parking for guests. The location completes the picture: Approximately 0.5 miles from Tonbridge mainline station for fast London connections, and a short stroll to the High Street’s shops, cafés and restaurants. Whether you’re a commuter seeking central convenience, a downsizer wanting lift access and easy living, or an investor looking for a strong, en-suite-led layout, this spacious apartment stands out for its blend of scale, storage and superb accessibility.
