4 bed terraced house for sale

Lanthorne Mews, Tunbridge Wells TN1

A rare opportunity to acquire an impressive Grade II listed Georgian mews house occupying an exclusive gated setting in the heart of Royal Tunbridge Wells. Forming part of the historic Calverley New Town development and positioned immediately beside Hotel du Vin, the property combines architectural character and exceptionally generous accommodation with private outside space, communal gardens and two allocated off-road parking spaces.

The development presents an attractive first impression, with white-rendered elevations, Georgian-style sash windows and a smart courtyard arrangement. Entrance gates provide privacy and separation from the surrounding town, while the property’s two allocated tandem parking spaces are conveniently positioned immediately outside the gates.

Inside, a broad entrance hall establishes the generous proportions found throughout the house. There is ample room for occasional furniture, together with useful built-in storage and a ground-floor cloakroom. The staircase rises to a naturally illuminated first-floor landing.

The separate kitchen and breakfast room is fitted with a comprehensive range of Shaker-style wall and base cabinetry, complemented by extensive work surfaces and a peninsula with breakfast-bar seating. A sash-style window brings natural light into the room, while the practical layout provides plenty of storage and space for everyday appliances. Its proportions make it equally suitable for informal dining, family breakfasts and entertaining.

The outstanding feature of the ground floor is the exceptional open-plan sitting and dining room. This beautifully proportioned reception space comfortably accommodates substantial seating and a full-size dining table, allowing defined living and entertaining areas to be created without compromising the room’s open character.

A feature fireplace forms an attractive focal point, complemented by fitted display shelving and elegant decorative detailing. Three sets of rear-facing sash-style windows fill the room with natural light and frame views across the gardens towards Calverley Grounds. A glazed door opens directly onto the property’s private paved terrace, creating a natural connection between the house and its outside space.

The terrace offers an inviting setting for outdoor seating, dining and entertaining. Steps lead down into the landscaped communal gardens, which provide a particularly attractive and peaceful backdrop to the house. The property also benefits from a separate enclosed private garden, providing additional space for planting, relaxation or outdoor storage.

The garden arrangement is a significant feature of the property. The combination of a private terrace, separate private garden and access to the established communal grounds is rarely found in such a central town location. Mature trees, shrubs and planted borders contribute to the leafy outlook, while the views towards Calverley Grounds enhance the sense of openness.

The first floor provides four bedrooms, including a spacious principal bedroom with fitted storage and an en suite shower room. The en suite is fitted with a glazed shower enclosure, wash basin and WC, providing welcome privacy from the remaining bedrooms and family bathroom.

The three further bedrooms are all well proportioned and offer considerable flexibility. One is currently arranged as a dedicated dressing room but could readily return to use as a bedroom. Alternatively, it would make an excellent home office, nursery, hobby room or occasional guest room.

The family bathroom is presented in a light and elegant style, with a bath, twin wash basins, vanity storage and a WC. Together with the principal en suite and ground-floor cloakroom, the arrangement is particularly practical for family life and visiting guests.

Throughout the house, generous room sizes, sash-style windows and good natural light combine with a predominantly neutral decorative scheme. The result is a home that retains a strong sense of Georgian character while offering the comfortable and flexible accommodation required for modern living.

Externally, the gated setting provides a welcome degree of privacy, while the two allocated tandem parking spaces immediately outside the gates are an important practical advantage. The private terrace, enclosed garden, communal grounds and outlook towards Calverley Grounds further distinguish this property from many other centrally located homes.

Lanthorne Mews is exceptionally well placed for enjoying Royal Tunbridge Wells on foot. The railway station, town centre, Calverley Grounds, theatres and principal shopping areas are all within convenient reach, as are the High Street and historic Pantiles with their independent shops, cafés, bars and restaurants.

Combining Grade II listed Georgian heritage, substantial accommodation, gated privacy, valuable outside space and allocated parking, this is a genuinely distinctive town-centre home with an exceptional range of attributes.
