Semi-detached house for sale in Pembury Road, Tunbridge Wells TN2

Gorsebrook is a charming, Victorian attached house set on a private drive off Pembury Road. This much loved home has retained beautiful period features, with elegant proportions, offering incredibly light and bright accommodation with views over the adjoining gardens and surrounding treetops from all rooms. Having been in the same ownership for 25 years, the property is beautifully presented and well maintained inside and out and offers potential, for further improvement such as replacement bathrooms and further enlargement if desired, subject to the necessary consents.

The entrance hall offers a glimpse out into the garden, with plenty of space for coats and boots as well as a cloakroom beneath the stairs. The triple aspect sitting room features an open fire and the sliding doors leading to the garden room allows you to have one large open space for entertaining or create cosier rooms. The dining room to the front and adjacent kitchen/breakfast room at the rear provide ample space for family meals and entertaining with a large dual-fuel range cooker and useful larder cupboard for additional storage. There is also an excellent basement which provides a utility area with additional sink and space for a washing machine and tumble dryer and plenty of storage for everything you might usually store in an attic or garage.

The first floor includes a dual aspect master bedroom with Juliet balcony to the front and far reaching views, together with fitted wardrobes and an en-suite, as well as a dual aspect guest bedroom with a balcony to the west, overlooking the garden, a further dual aspect double bedroom, and a family bathroom. The second floor offers two additional bedrooms below the eaves and a study area, providing flexible living space for a growing family or home office needs. One of the rooms at the top of the house is currently used for storage as the owners prepare for their move and the other as a playroom for grandchildren, but both have previously been used as double bedrooms.

To the front of the property, the driveway provides parking for up to 4 cars, with an additional parking space behind the hedge to the side. Doors from the hallway and garden room lead out into beautifully landscaped gardens of approximately 3/4 acre (tbv), offering an exceptionally private and sunny setting. With a gently sloping lawn bordered by mature, evergreen hedging, the garden has been thoughtfully planted to ensure colour and interest throughout the year and arranged in several “rooms”. This is an excellent garden for children to play in or keen gardeners to enjoy. There is a more formal garden to the side featuring a patio beneath a shaded pergola, perfect for al-fresco dining and relaxation. The current owners have enjoyed many garden parties and celebrations in this beautiful space.

The location is quite unique, feeling almost rural in its setting yet also incredibly convenient. Just a short walk to Dunorlan Park and a 10-15 minute walk to the town centre and mainline station. This prime location offers easy access to local amenities, schools, and transport links, making it a desirable place to call home.
