luxury contemporary houses for sale Royal Tunbridge Wells, United Kingdom
House Royal Tunbridge Wells (United Kingdom)
What the owners say: We love this beautiful house as it is in such a special location so close to the station, the Pantiles and excellent local schools including the popular Claremont primary which can be seen from the house and is the only location that is ‘definitely’ in the catchment area. It is also quiet and peaceful with no road noise, it being situated on the bend of Poona Road, away from main arterial routes and, because it is a private road, it is very secure for both children and pets. The verge outside the house is partially owned by the property and represents a fun gathering place for the road’s community to gather and have a bonfire of for the children to play safely. We have designed the interior to be luxurious and individual but still practical including the underfloor heating system that can be controlled from your phone and thermostatically control each room independently. Even the two Velux windows in the kitchen can be controlled from your phone and include rain sensors so they automatically shut. As the house was originally built in 1837 we felt strongly that it should be restored to its former glory and have paid attention to every single detail with no expense spared. As a result it has been given the highest accolade by the town’s ‘Civic Society,’ which looks out for excellence in development and conversion and was awarded by the Mayor. This house has been a wonderful place to live with a real community feel but also being detached with its own off road parking area has also been a godsend, giving us the best of both worlds. We have poured our heart and soul into every part of the design and, while we have loved living here, it’s now ready for someone new to enjoy it and the close-knit local community where we have made many friends. Tunbridge Wells or, more formally Royal Tunbridge Wells, became a famous spa town in Regency times when it was frequented by the aristocracy who came to take the waters and enjoy the entertainment organised by Beau Nash. Much of this historic town was developed during that time including the famous Pantiles that now offers a delightful mix of independent shops, bars and restaurants, including the number one rated ‘Boutique’ in the UK, while the rest of the town also includes high street stores, a variety of excellent eateries, individual shops, hair and beauty salons and a number of luxury and boutique hotels as well as retail parks and a station with trains that will get you to London within an hour. With regard to education there are a number of primary and secondary schools rated Outstanding by Ofsted including St Peters’ C of E primary and the Bennett Memorial Diocesan School, the St Gregory’s Catholic School and Tunbridge Wells Girls Grammar School. You will also find excellent private schools in the area including Rosehill, The Mead, Holmewood House and Beechwood prep and secondary school as well as the famous Tonbridge School founded in 1553. Additional entertainment facilities include a nine-screen Odeon cinema, the Trinity theatre, the wellrespected Assembly Theatre and exhibitions in the Amelia Scott cultural centre. For sports enthusiasts there are a variety of sports facilities available including the Neville golf club, cricket, football and rugby clubs as well as the indoor sports and a swimming pool while the tennis club is one of the oldest in the country with 21 courts including 8 grass courts. Sprint and summer brings plenty of festivals for adults and children alike. One not to be missed is the ‘Jazz on the Pantiles’ where people can enjoy al fresco dining while listening to some of the best live music in the Southeast while eating a range of wonderful food at the same time.

Nestling in 12.96 acres of delightful grounds within the High Weald National Landscape (formerly an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty) is this impressive early Edwardian residence with far-reaching views over the surrounding countryside. As you sweep onto the forecourt with its ornate circular central flower bed you can begin to appreciate the appeal of this lovely family home with its imposing chimneystacks, variable roof lines and bargeboards as well as bay and casement windows. The covered porch leads to the stunning reception hall that sets the tone for this charming home with a log burning stove that heats the downstairs and immediately surrounds you with a warm and welcoming atmosphere that continues as you move throughout the house. Although the property has been sensitively modernised to create a contemporary environment it still retains superb period features including wood flooring, the original oak staircase, coved ceilings, dado rails, panelled doors and original fireplaces in many of the rooms. No where is this better illustrated than in the almost 36ft lounge/dining room with its angled box bay window and stone fireplace with a second log burner and is ideal for entertaining. This elegant room has a glazed door to the large, wood framed conservatory that has slate tiled flooring, lovely views over the swimming pool and the garden and is big enough room to provide additional seating and dining areas. There is also a large reception room with a curved glass extension that is currently in use as a ‘snug’ and is ideal for the kids to have their own space. The excellent dual aspect kitchen/breakfast room is more than 29ft long with sufficient room for a large breakfast table and chairs for informal family meals. It includes a range cooker, a store cupboard and charming white units housing an upmarket American fridge freezer and stand-alone appliances. There is a fascinating fitted cloakroom just inside the front door and a secondary hallway where you will find an additional cloakroom, the plant machine room and a utility area/boot room as well as French doors to a small patio area. A second staircase leads up to a 30ft bedroom with an ensuite shower and a balcony overlooking the grounds that is currently in use as a well-equipped gym. It is over the two double garages and this whole area could be converted into a large separate annex, subject to the necessary permissions. The other five double bedrooms are accessed via the main staircase that leads to a spacious galleried landing with skylights and an airing cupboard as well as to the modern family bathroom with a stand-alone oval bath, a walk-in shower and a vanity basin. Adjacent to the family bathroom is a large dual aspect double bedroom with far reaching views and direct access to another double bedroom with a wall of fitted cupboards and a basin so could become an excellent dressing room or a pair of bedrooms for kids.

This calm and peaceful space includes glass fronted fitted cupboards, lovely views over the woodland and a trendy ensuite with a walk-in shower and a pair of contemporary vanity basins. A separate driveway leads to the two garages, one of which is also used as a games room. A high curved wall discreetly separates the forecourt from the swimming pool complex and is bordered by a terrace, providing an ideal space for lounging in the sunshine. Beyond the conservatory there is a large workshop/garden shed and steps down to another spacious terrace creating a charming area for outdoor entertaining. It leads to well-manicured level lawns and to the rest of the grounds that features an orchard with about 30 fruit trees, a vegetable garden and a greenhouse surrounded by six acres of woodland where children can play hide and seek, make camp or enjoy the charming tree house. For anyone with equestrian interests there is a wild meadow that could accommodate horses and it also includes a large barn that could be converted to stables or it would also make an excellent workshop/studio or office complex for anyone working from home who needs a quiet and peaceful working environment. What the owners say: As soon as we saw the house we fell in love with the spacious rooms, the warm and friendly atmosphere and the grounds as well as the far-reaching views. While we are surrounded by more than 12 acres of grounds and woodland we are not far from the main road for very easy access to Tunbridge Wells and East Grinstead, but we hardly notice any noise and when we are in the garden and the swimming pool, we just enjoy the sound of the birds and the sight of the deer wandering through the grounds. We shall be very sad to leave our wonderful family home but a change in circumstances mean we have to pass the baton on to new owners. The village of Ashurst is only a couple of minutes away and includes a mainline station with commuter access to London, a church and a village hall with a sports ground while it is just over a mile to the good Fordcombe primary school or a little further afield is Speldhurst primary school, rated Outstanding by Ofsted. It is only about four miles to the historic spa town of Tunbridge Wells which became famous in Regency times when frequented by the aristocracy who came to take the waters and enjoy the entertainment organised by Beau Nash. It developed during that time to include the famous colonnaded Pantiles that now offers a delightful mix of independent shops, bars and restaurants.

The handmade kitchen pairs sleek handleless cabinetry with warm timber detailing and a large central island, crowned by a Gaggenau gas hob and a statement ceiling extractor. Integrated Gaggenau ovens and high-specification appliances complete the picture. The room flows effortlessly to a glazed dining area and on to the rear terrace, framing green views across the garden.

From the moment you step inside, the scale and elegance are unmistakable. The stately entrance and inner halls form the heart of the home, rising dramatically to a double-height gallery above. Limestone floors, intricate cornicing and domed ceilings create a sense of occasion, while original parquet flooring and open fireplaces add warmth and authenticity. Technology has been discreetly integrated, with underfloor heating to the ground floor and first-floor bathrooms, alongside Sonos audio and a Crestron home management system controlling lighting, climate, curtains and entertainment at the touch of a tablet or smartphone. The house occupies an elevated position on Holwood Hill, commanding far reaching southerly views across rolling countryside. Two areas of woodland frame the property, creating a natural avenue and a picturesque vista. Ground Floor: - The principal reception rooms flow beautifully from the central halls, each designed to make the most of the breathtaking southerly views across the estate. The music hall is a particular highlight, with its elegant proportions and panoramic outlook over rolling parkland. The drawing room, dining room, games room and kitchen/breakfast room all enjoy generous sash windows and French doors, bathing the interiors in natural light and creating a wonderful connection to the grounds beyond. At the centre of family life sits the magnificent Clive Christian kitchen. With a dramatic double-height ceiling and expansive roof lights, it is both striking and supremely practical. A library mezzanine overlooks part of the breakfast area, creating a relaxed yet refined space for reading or quiet work. From here, the house opens effortlessly into the family room, which in turn leads directly into the newly refurbished swimming pool complex and annexe, perfect for year-round entertaining. Beneath the house, the substantial cellar offers yet more lifestyle flexibility. A large central entertaining space, referred to as the Shisha Lounge, is complemented by two gyms and newly installed communications, boiler and heating systems as well as a generous laundry room. The ground floor is completed by a private study, Champagne bar/Snooker room, four car garage, cloakroom, powder room and a fully insulated cinema room with surround sound for evenings at home.

To the east, a newly constructed machinery store, also suitable as a helicopter hangar, adds a discreet yet highly practical modern touch. History - Few houses can claim a history as rich or as influential as Holwood, and fewer still combine such pedigree with effortless modern living. The site itself is recorded as an Iron Age fort, Caesar's Camp, and has long been recognised for its strategic and scenic importance. In the late 18th century, Holwood became the cherished retreat of William Pitt the Younger, Britain's youngest ever Prime Minister, who commissioned Sir John Soane to remodel the house and transform the surrounding landscape. It was here, beneath a great oak tree in 1787, that Pitt famously encouraged William Wilberforce to begin the parliamentary campaign to abolish the slave trade. The house was later rebuilt in its current classical Georgian form by the celebrated architect Decimus Burton in 1827. Over the centuries, Holwood has welcomed an extraordinary roll call of visitors and residents, including Charles Darwin, who conducted experiments in the grounds, and Winston Churchill, who dined here regularly during the Second World War. Today, the house and grounds are Grade I listed, reflecting their exceptional historical significance. Location And Lifestyle - Holwood House enjoys an elevated, private position just east of the charming village of Keston, which offers a village hall, pub and post office. More extensive shopping can be found in Bromley, with Sevenoaks under 14 miles away. The area is renowned for its excellent schooling, with a wide selection of highly regarded independent and state schools within easy reach. Fast rail services from Orpington and Bromley South provide swift access into central London, while the M25 is readily accessible. Golfers are well served by nearby courses including Chelsfield Lakes, West Kent and Lullingstone Park. Biggin Hill Airport is just 1.7 miles away, with Gatwick and London City also within comfortable reach. Holwood House is not simply a home; it is a private estate of rare beauty and historical importance, offering a lifestyle defined by space, privacy, elegance and connection to both countryside and city.
