Rustwick, Rusthall, Tunbridge Wells

GUIDE PRICE £525,000 - £550,000. An absolute gem of an 'Arts & Crafts' style attached property on Rustwick, a private road in Rusthall immediately adjacent to open areas of Wealden countryside. A glance at the attached photographs and floorplan will give an indication as to both the quality of the property itself and indeed the number of period flourishes therein, as well as the sheer amount of space available - most particularly for entertaining and for enjoying both the gardens and the views beyond. As currently arranged, the property has an attractive principal entrance area with a ground floor shower room/WC/wet room and two large reception rooms, one of which has been set up to take advantage of the aforementioned views. The property also has a large kitchen/breakfast room and further utility cupboard. There are two double bedrooms to the first floor, one with an en-suite shower room. Externally, the house has generous parking to the front for two/three vehicles and a most attractive rear garden set over two levels with a large, paved entertaining area and a detached garden room (sub divided with a general storage and workspace and further arts space) and a further lower lawn area with deep shrub beds, further patio space and a gate leading to the meadows beyond. Properties with this style, space and location are rarely available and always extremely popular. To this end we would encourage all interested parties to make an immediate appointment to view to avoid disappointment.
