Chieveley Drive, Tunbridge Wells

A well cared for three bedroom detached property in this most impressive location, ripe for further extension and development, subject to the necessary permissions being obtainable. When offered a choice of any home on the newly built estate, it should not come as a surprise that a previous owner chose this particular house in this particular plot. A glance at the attached photographs and floorplan will give a good indication as to the accommodation currently available, but what may not be so readily obvious is the size and aspect of the gardens and the attractive woodland views beyond. In line with contemporary taste, there are ripe opportunities to further extend the property to the rear with the introduction of good levels of glass to take advantage of this pleasingly semi rural vista, and also to the side over the garage, STPP.

As currently arranged, the property has a principal entrance hallway, a downstairs wc with both a shower and sauna, a good sized double aspect principal lounge and further separate dining room with an additional kitchen and conservatory. There are three good sized bedrooms to the first floor and a further family bathroom.

We expect this property to generate immediate and considerable interest, to this end please do not delay in contacting Wood & Pilcher so as to avoid disappointment.
