Description

Nestled within the charming and historic Town of Cranbrook, this captivating Grade II listed mid-terraced cottage offers three bedrooms and beckons for a rejuvenating touch throughout. Situated just a brief stroll away from the vibrant town centre, it provides convenient access to all local amenities.

Previously encountering a ground-floor flood incident stemming from external drainage adjustments by Tunbridge Wells Borough Council, the property has since undergone necessary repairs. The issue, attributed to a misconnection in the drainage system, has been effectively resolved, ensuring a secure and dry environment. Following the incident, NFU Tenterden managed the insurance claim process, which required probate proceedings due to unfortunate circumstances. Comprehensive measures were taken, including the installation of dehumidifiers and a thorough electrical inspection, to restore the property's integrity. Presently, the executors have transitioned to a new insurance provider, primarily driven by competitive pricing factors. Assurance is provided that obtaining insurance coverage posed no challenges, as accountability for the flood incident rested with Tunbridge Wells Borough Council.
