Semi-detached house for sale in Frant Road, Tunbridge Wells TN2

Set well back and situated in the popular southern part of town within easy reach of The Pantiles and historic High Street, Castleton House is a handsome, attached Victorian villa, which has been skilfully extended and refurbished by the present owners. Ensuring the preservation of the marvellous proportions and architectural features, the transformation of this exceptional residence has been brought about by harnessing the abundance of natural light with colour and texture whilst at the same time upgrading the infrastructure. With elegant external elevations of mellow brick and extending to just over three thousand, six hundred square feet, the accommodation is laid out over four floors. Period features include tall ceilings, ornate coving, picture rails, ceiling roses and some exposed timber flooring, which combine with twenty-first century requirements such as double glazed sash windows, some with shutters and the seamless extensions in to the second floor and lower ground levels. Reception rooms are gracious, in particular within the drawing room with its large and elegant bay window and stone fireplace, whilst the media room on the lower ground level is the perfect space for home entertainment. The kitchen/dining room is a wonderful space with its vaulted ceiling, floor to ceiling windows with French doors, flagstone flooring and hand painted cabinets. Bedrooms are arranged over the upper two levels with two on the first floor together with a dressing room as well as two bathrooms each with separate shower cabinets and three on the second supported by a shower room.

Outside
