1 bed flat for sale

Ashenden Walk, Tunbridge Wells TN2

Set within an intimate development of just four homes, this distinctive split-level apartment offers approximately 492 sq ft of bright, characterful accommodation. It benefits from its own private entrance and a particularly impressive loft-style bedroom overlooking the surrounding woodland.

Purchased by the current owner as their first home in 2022, the apartment has since benefited from a number of practical improvements, including replacement double glazing, a new front door, electric shower and electric water heater.

The standout feature is undoubtedly the spacious upper-floor bedroom. Converted from the original loft space, it is filled with natural light from two large windows and enjoys a peaceful outlook across the leafy woodland behind. It is a wonderfully calm place in which to wake, with birdsong and the occasional sound of woodpeckers creating a genuine connection to the surrounding natural environment.

The split-level arrangement gives the apartment a sense of separation and individuality rarely found in a conventional one-bedroom flat, making it particularly well suited to a first-time buyer, professional or anyone seeking a low-maintenance home with a more distinctive layout.

The property also benefits from one allocated parking space positioned to the front of the building, while unrestricted on-road parking provides convenient additional space for visitors.

Heating is provided by electric room heaters with individual thermostatic controls, while hot water is heated electrically at the point of use through the electric shower and local water heater.

The property is offered with a 999-year lease dating from 1 January 1980. The ground rent is understood to be a peppercorn, with no regular annual service charge currently payable. Instead, leaseholders contribute a fair proportion towards qualifying maintenance or repair works when required.
