**A beautifully refurbished two-bedroom upper ground floor apartment in the heart of Tunbridge Wells, combining elegant period character with high-quality contemporary finishes.**

Since purchasing the property in 2019, the current owners have undertaken an extensive programme of improvements, including partial re-wiring, a new boiler, a bespoke kitchen and bathroom, redecoration throughout and the installation of plumbed underfloor heating, creating a sleek, streamlined finish without intrusive radiators.

A new fire door has also been purchased and fully paid for by the current owners. The freeholder is currently carrying out works to the communal areas in preparation for its installation, with completion expected before a new owner takes occupation, at no additional cost to them.

The welcoming entrance hallway immediately sets the tone, featuring attractive Victorian-style tiled flooring, elegant wall panelling and useful understairs storage. Storage has been thoughtfully maximised throughout, with additional loft space accessed via a fitted loft ladder. A second loft storage area has also been created above the bathroom, following the lowering of the ceiling, making excellent use of the available space.

Both bedrooms are generous doubles, peacefully positioned at the rear of the property, away from the road. Character features are retained throughout, including UPVC sash windows and ceiling roses. Bedroom two further benefits from fitted wardrobes neatly recessed into the alcoves, alongside an attractive cast iron fireplace with decorative surround.

The impressive open-plan reception room forms the heart of the home, providing a versatile space for both everyday living and entertaining. The bespoke Ashton Lewis kitchen is complemented by elegant quartz worktops and a comprehensive range of integrated appliances, including a fridge, freezer, induction hob, extractor hood, dishwasher and washing machine. The dishwasher was replaced in May 2026, while the washing machine was replaced in the fourth quarter of 2025. A breakfast bar creates a natural separation between the kitchen and living areas, while the expansive bay sash window floods the room with natural light. A cast iron fireplace and decorative ceiling rose preserve the property's period charm, complemented by contemporary touches such as app-controlled LED lighting beneath the kitchen cabinetry.

The beautifully appointed bathroom has been designed with a boutique hotel feel, featuring a freestanding bath with an illuminated wine shelf and freestanding tap with shower attachment. A separate walk-in shower incorporates a folding glass screen and waterfall shower, alongside an Aqualisa handheld shower offering four options. Further features include a WC, vanity unit with storage, heated towel rail and LED-lit mirror cabinet.

While the apartment does not have allocated parking, the building benefits from two parking spaces to the front. The rear basement apartment uses parking to the rear, and with just five residences in total, including two households who do not own vehicles, parking to the front is typically straightforward and readily available. The neighbouring office building operates during office hours only, allowing its frontage to be used for additional parking outside these times, between 6pm and 9am. Permit parking is also available locally, along with several nearby roads offering unrestricted, all-day free parking.

The location is a particular highlight, placing the very best of Tunbridge Wells within easy reach. This sought-after spa town offers an appealing combination of historic charm, independent businesses and modern amenities. The renowned Pantiles, with its elegant Georgian promenade, independent boutiques, cafés, bars and regular live events, provides a distinctive setting to enjoy the town's vibrant atmosphere. The wider town centre offers an extensive choice of high street retailers, independent shops, supermarkets and everyday amenities.

For those who enjoy the outdoors, Dunorlan Park and Calverley Grounds provide beautiful landscaped gardens, lakeside walks and open green spaces. Beyond the town, the surrounding Kent countryside offers an abundance of scenic walking routes and opportunities to escape into nature, all just minutes from the centre.

Commuters are well catered for, with regular mainline rail services from Tunbridge Wells to London Bridge, Waterloo East and Charing Cross. The town also benefits from excellent road connections to the M25 and the wider motorway network.

Combining carefully considered modern upgrades, attractive period features and an enviable town-centre location, this is a wonderful opportunity to acquire a distinctive home in the heart of Tunbridge Wells.
