7 Speldhurst Place, Speldhurst Road Southborough: Guide Price £250,000 - £275,000 7 SPELDHURST PLACE, SPELDHURST ROAD SOUTHBOROUGH: GUIDE PRICE £250,000 - £275,000 7 Speldhurst Place, Speldhurst Road Tunbridge Wells, Southborough, TN4 0JA Speldhurst Place is a selection of spacious, well appointed one and two bedroom apartments with allocated parking, centrally situated close to local amenities in Southborough. DESCRIPTION: Number 7 Speldhurst Place is a ground floor, two bedroom apartment that is situated within the central wing of this converted Georgian-style property. There are no other apartments on the ground floor of the central wing, which makes this a desirable position within this sought- after development. This imposing building is within an enviable location that provides a tranquil setting and yet is only a few minutes away from the shops, amenities and facilities in nearby Southborough. The apartment has been cleverly designed to make the best use of the space and this well-proportioned layout will suit an array of buyers. The living area is dual aspect with windows to the front and rear, which allows light to filter through this section of the apartment. The specification and finish in this apartment, and throughout the development, has attracted huge interest from an array of buyers who appreciate the small detail as well as the unique features, which include the 'secret garden'. The 'secret garden' is screened from view and is well-stocked with beautiful plants and shrubs. In addition to the garden, the borders within this walled development are a delight to behold and one can see that substantial time and expense has gone into making sure the 'first impression' counts. Abode Homes are selling the apartments with the benefi t of a 999 year lease and most importantly a Share of the Freehold. This means that no Ground Rent is due, and the owners have control over the decisions made regarding the ongoing running of the building. To conclude, this beautiful apartment, which comes with an insurance- backed build warranty, brings to the table a high-level of specification, in a desirable location and has additional benefits such as the garden and a Share of the Freehold. We highly recommend that this apartment is added to your viewing list and whilst at the development you will be able to look at other 2 bedroom and 1 bedroom apartments that are for sale. SITUATION: Speldhurst Place is situated in a prime residential location in the heart of Southborough, being close to local shops , bus services and a wide range of amenities including pubs, restaurants and recreation facilities at Fusion Lifestyle offering gym, swimming pool and tennis courts and Knights Park which includes a bowling complex, cinema and private health club. The nearest train service is located at High Brooms mainline Station being 0.9 miles away and offers fast and frequent services to London and the South Coast in under an hour. The property is also situated for access onto the A21 which provides a direct link onto the M25. The highly anticipated Southborough Hub is in the process of being developed which will offer a theatre, coffee shop, medical centre and library upon completion.
