Foalhurst Close, Tonbridge, Kent

If you are looking for a spacious family home with plenty of potential this L shaped, five bedroom detached property built in the late 1950s could be top of your list. It is on a large corner plot in a quiet cul-de-sac that leads to fields on the outskirts of Tonbridge but is not far from the A26 or Tonbridge station. The house is set back from the road with a front lawn and shrub beds and is approached via a driveway providing off road parking leading to entrance gates and the detached garage. There is a glass fronted lobby and coat cupboard that opens into the spacious hallway with herringbone parquet flooring, stairs to the first floor, an understairs cupboard and a cloakroom.

The large light and bright dual aspect lounge includes a fireplace and a wide archway to the dining room with another open arch to the triple aspect 17ft sitting room/playroom with French doors to the garden. There is a well-proportioned kitchen/breakfast room with a pedestal peninsular breakfast bar, fitted units housing a built in double oven, stand-alone appliances and a door to the garden. Upstairs there is a family bathroom, an airing cupboard and five good sized bedrooms including the dual aspect master with fitted cupboards that leads to an en suite shower room as well as to one of the other bedrooms.

The enclosed garden is on two levels. The lower level is mainly laid to lawn and includes a play area as well as a paved patio and a separate courtyard area. Steps lead to the upper level that includes a lawn, greenhouse, vegetable beds and shrub borders.

What the Owner says:

We bought this house about three years ago as we loved the space, the garden and the potential to make it a stunning family home and a wonderful place to bring up our children. However, our situation has changed so we are passing the baton on to new owners who we are sure will be able to make it their own. The area is delightful with charming neighbors and a great community atmosphere. We even had a street party for the Coronation a few months ago.
It is only a short stroll to the fields at the end of the cul-de-sac but it also not far to the Town Centre with its independent shops, hair and beauty salons along with plenty of bars and restaurants and more retail outlets on the outskirts of the town. There are excellent educational facilities with a number of primary schools including Slade Primary rated Outstanding by Ofsted, several Outstanding grammar schools with specialist status including performing arts, math's and ICT, music and sports. There is also the West Kent College of further education and a small University of Kent campus as well as the famous independent Tonbridge School founded in 1553. This provides a leisure club with extremely good facilities available to external club members including a swimming pool, gymnasium, athletics track and tennis courts while the town itself has golf, football, rugby, tennis and cricket clubs.
