Location

Calverley Park is a private no-through road providing a 'country-like' atmosphere, running between Crescent Road and Grove Hill Road.

The station, with services to London Cannon Street and Charing Cross (via London Bridge and Waterloo East), is approximately 0.4 miles on foot via The Calverley Grounds, where there are tennis and basketball courts, a children’s play area, café, beautiful gardens and an ice skating rink at Christmas.

Hoopers department store is opposite the station, whilst the High Street and the historic Pantiles are further down with interesting restaurants, cafes, pubs, and boutiques. The Common, much loved by dog walkers and families, is on the other side of London Road and there is a Bridge club, (housing the Chess club) on London Road.

The Hotel du Vin, Assembly Halls theatre, Trinity Theatre and Arts Cinema, and The Royal Victoria Place are on the northern side of town. Further out, there is golf at the Nevill, cricket and tennis at Warwick Park and out-of-town shopping at the North Farm Industrial Estate, with a Multiplex Odeon Cinema and bowling.

The town is surrounded by an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty with attractions including water sports at Bewl Water, cycling trails at Bedgebury and the Ashdown Forest.

The area is well-served by schools, with several local primaries, the boys' and girls' Grammars and Judd, a co-educational Grammar at Tonbridge. Preparatories include The Mead, Rosehill, Beechwood, and Holmewood House. At senior level, there is Tonbridge for boys, Mayfield for girls, and co-ed options at Sevenoaks, Eastbourne and Brighton.

Communications: The A21, accessed just north of Tunbridge Wells, links to the M25 London orbital motorway and thereby the national motorway network, Gatwick and Heathrow Airports.

Description

Calverley Park represents the centrepiece to the historic town buildings by the famous architect and builder, Decimus Burton. All listed grade II*, these exclusive Georgian houses are considered to represent some of our finest architecture, both individually and collectively. The location benefits from being both exclusive and very centrally positioned too, linking the fashionable southern side, which has the mainline station and fashionable shopping, cafes and restaurants, to the town’s impressive municipal centre, with areas that feed off from there.

All the houses are different, with number 19 being one of the medium size detached villa’s, heavily influenced by the classical style and some Regency elements.

The principal accommodation benefits from grand proportions and period features, with good ceiling heights and the house is well presented throughout, with modern updating where necessary, while many of the key rooms enjoy the park aspect to the rear.

Outside, there is good parking on the private drive and a garage, with a fine, stone entertaining terrace to the rear, which enjoys the evening sun and overlooks the immaculate mature lawn garden, with the park aspect beyond.
