House For Sale £1,350,000
A highly stylish and striking family house in a sought-after residential area, ideally placed for local amenities and nearby towns of Tunbridge Wells and Tonbridge
Description
Having undergone an extensive program of updating, extension and reconfiguration under our clients' ownership, 16 Great Bounds Drive is now an eye-catching, individual and substantial family home found in this highly convenient location.
The house provides highly stylish and immaculately presented accommodation throughout which has been configured to cater to the demands and style of modern family living with a cohesive and very high standard of finish both inside and out.
Of particular note is the rear extension which has created a large and stunning open-plan area, incorporating the kitchen, dining area and informal seating area with bi-fold doors overlooking and opening onto the garden beyond.
The generous kitchen area has attractive fitted units providing good storage and preparation space, with a range of integrated appliances and breakfast bar ideal for more informal dining. There is an adjoining utility room with direct access to the garden which also leads to the garage.
There is also a cosy yet sizeable sitting/cinema room to the front of the house offering further reception space, and a modest study area and a separate, ground floor wc.
The first floor is home to the impressive principal bedroom with part-vaulted ceiling and feature window and beautifully appointed en suite shower room. The three further bedrooms (one of which is currently used as a dressing room) are serviced by the family bathroom.
Outside: 16 Great Bounds Drive enjoys a well-screened, simply landscaped garden, with easy maintenance in mind. There is a raised decked terrace that spans the rear of the house for easy outdoor entertaining that adjoins the house, and a generous expanse of level lawn for child's play.
To the rear boundary there is a further and enticing entertaining area with paved terrace and swimming pool.
The house provides the very notable asset of a separate, detached garden studio of a further 518 sq ft, ideal for entertaining by the pool with a very useful kitchenette, and is also a very luxurious base for working from home with power, light, internet and heating, with bi-fold doors to bring the outside inside.
16 Great Bounds Drive enjoys a smart gated approach with driveway parking to the front of the property and an integral garage which provides further useful storage space.
Location
Great Bounds Drive is a part of a popular residential area nestled between Southborough and Bidborough. This attractive and compact neighbourhood is situated to the west of the A26, affording convenient access to both the A21 and City rail connections at Tonbridge.
Surrounded by countryside, with footpaths and bridleways leading to the nearby village of Bidborough and giving access to Southborough Common, Great Bounds Drive is also within just three miles of the commercial centres of both Tunbridge Wells and Tonbridge, and Southborough itself offers very good local amenities, with a number of "mini-supermarkets" available, cafés, bars and restaurants, hairdressers, dentist, doctor surgery, Library and a good variety of further local shops.
The Tonbridge and Tunbridge Wells area is very well-served by an extensive choice of highly regarded schools including Academies, Kent Grammars and Public Schools: Southborough C of E Primary, Bidborough C of E Primary, St Gregory’s Catholic School (1.4 miles) Tunbridge Wells Boys Grammar (about 1.5 miles), Skinners and Tunbridge Wells Girls’ Grammar (approximately 2 miles), further independent schools in Tonbridge and Sevenoaks (approximately 3 and 8.8 miles respectively).
Communications: The A26 joins the A21 just North of the town, linking through to the M25 (junction 5) London orbital motorway, and thereby to the national motorway network, and to the South coast. Gatwick Airport is about 23 miles to the West, accessible via the motorway or via the A264.
A comprehensive bus service operates along the A26 London Road serving Tunbridge Wells and the schools along the St. Johns Road. The Centaur Commuter Coach service also stops along A26, which can be accessed via a short footpath directly leading from Great Bounds Drive.
Mainline rail: Tonbridge mainline station is about 2.5 miles away offering fast and frequent commuter services to London Charing Cross/Cannon Street.
