Semi-detached house for sale in Langton Road, Langton Green, Tunbridge Wells, Kent TN3

Once the home of Princess Louise, daughter of Queen Victoria, this historically important house is now divided into three large individual homes. Dornden forms the west wing of this substantial Grade II Listed brick and stone mansion, understood to have been altered and largely rebuilt in 1925 to the designs of Compton Hall.

The property is beautifully presented throughout, having been updated by the current owners, retaining many classical period features including original panelling and mouldings, polished oak floors, stone mullion windows and decorative fireplaces.

The property is approached via a gravelled driveway, terminating in a large parking and turning area.

The well established gardens are a particular highlight, with extensive ornamental box and yew hedging, a large York stone terrace adjacent to the house along with two sizable areas of lawn to the front and the rear, interspersed with mature shrubs and specimen trees.

The property occupies a convenient position on the eastern edge of Langton Green, about half a mile from the village centre with a good range of local shops.

Tunbridge Wells town centre offers a wide range of shopping and leisure facilities as well as mainline station serving London Charing Cross and Cannon Street in under an hour.
