What the owners say: We moved here 24 years ago because it was near good schools and on a bus route and has been a great place to bring up our children. However they have flown the nest and we want to move nearer our family. We have loved creating the garden, installing the cedar buildings and creating the extension. Tunbridge Wells offers a delightful mix of high street stores, independent shops, bars and restaurants, hair and beauty salons and a number of luxury and boutique hotels as well as retail parks and a station with trains that will get you to London within an hour. There are a number of primary and secondary schools rated Outstanding and delightful places to enjoy a walk. Additional entertainment facilities include a nine-screen Odeon cinema, the Trinity cinema and the Assembly Theatre while the various sports clubs include the Neville Golf Club.

What the Owner says:

We moved here some 24 years ago and we have thoroughly enjoyed everything about this home and it has been a great place to bring up our family however they have flown the next and we now want to move nearer our children and grandchildren. We have loved creating the garden, installing the cedar buildings and are very proud of the lovely extension where we can sit and enjoy the views. We bought the house originally because of the location. Not only is it easy to get into the centre of town or go for a country walk but it is also near good schools, we are on a bus route and there are two pubs nearby.
