The Gables is a simply stunning Edwardian family home situated on Goldsmid Road, one of the most sought-after roads in South Tonbridge. This remarkable property boasts a south-facing garden and has recently undergone extensive refurbishment, making it an exquisite blend of modern elegance and classic charm. With its prime location just 0.4 miles away from the mainline station and 0.5 miles from the high street, The Gables offers both convenience and period charm in abundance.

As you enter the property through the front door, you are greeted by a highly impressive reception hall adorned with herringbone flooring. A staircase rises to the first floor, while doors lead to the various rooms on the ground floor. The sitting room, family room, and kitchen/dining room are all accessed from this entrance hall, creating a seamless flow throughout the house.

The sitting room, located at the front of the house, is bathed in natural light from its dual-aspect windows and features a charming bay window that overlooks the front garden. A focal point of the room is the fireplace, which houses a wood-burning stove and adds warmth and character to the space. Period features and cornice coving further enhance the room's elegance. Doors also lead out directly to the patio area of the south-facing garden.
On the opposite side of the hallway is a separate cosy family room, complete with its own feature fireplace and bay window. This versatile space offers a peaceful retreat for relaxation or can serve as a playroom or study.

Spanning the rear of the property is a contemporary kitchen/dining room, featuring a bespoke handmade kitchen from Boffe Designs. This stunning space seamlessly combines style and functionality, featuring high ceilings, a large range of sleek wall units with contrasting Corian worktops, appliances such as Fisher and Paykel eye-level ovens, a Quooker hot water tap, induction hob, and a dishwasher. The herringbone-style flooring continues through from the hallway and there is ample room for a dining table and chairs. Sash windows and a door leading out to the rear garden fill the room with natural light, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere. There is also a large adjoining utility room and a convenient downstairs w/c shower room.

Upstairs, a naturally lit landing provides access to the five bedrooms. The bedrooms are well-proportioned and offer comfortable living spaces for the whole family. Additionally, there is a modernized family bathroom that exudes period-style elegance, featuring a roll-top ball and claw foot bath and a matching bathroom suite.

Outside, The Gables boasts off-road parking for several vehicles and a single detached garage with power, light, and additional storage space above. Situated centrally within the plot, the property benefits from beautifully landscaped gardens on three sides. The main rear garden has been meticulously designed to offer a large brick-paved patio area adjacent to the house, which can be accessed through double doors from the sitting room as well as from the kitchen/dining room. The remaining garden is laid to lawn and surrounded by established trees and shrubs, creating a private and tranquil oasis.
