This charming four-bedroom home sits on leafy Sunnyside Road in Royal Tunbridge Wells. Designed with an impeccable eye for detail, the home has been extended and renovated throughout to include a bespoke kitchen, playful interiors and Crittall doors that flood the interiors with natural light. Interiors span some 2,077 sq ft, while outside, a landscaped garden unfolds with established flower beds, fragrant hyacinths and beautiful Lawson's cypress trees. Quiet Sunnyside Road is just outside of the centre of Tunbridge Wells, from which trains run into London in under an hour. Setting the Scene Contemporary interventions to the house have been done with great sensitivity; the original building dates back to the early 20th century and in form remains very much the same. A pristine white stucco facade conceals what lies within, where interiors have been meticulously planned with great consideration. There is an easy flow from the ground floor spaces to the garden beyond, achieved by Crittall doors that create a seamless and cohesive open-plan space. Additional touches, like a bespoke brass staircase, add to the playfulness of the decorative scheme, which combines an Edwardian shell with mid-century and contemporary flourishes. For more information, please see the History section below. The Grand Tour The house and its garden are concealed from the road by a high brick wall. Entry to the home is via a striking glossy red double door, which is flanked by brass external lights by KES lighting. Ahead lies the ground floor reception room and kitchen, a vast space divided by a floating central staircase by SBG Architectural. Light floods the interiors via windows on three of the floor walls, including a set of floor-to-ceiling Crittall doors leading to the garden. The sense of light and space is further enhanced by a sumptuous, gloss ceiling finished in Farrow and Ball's 'Wimbourne White' paint. The kitchen is grounded by a striking quartzite marble island. Topping bespoke units, the stone is rich with emerald green veining and has been finished in a reflective polish. Floating glass shelving sits above a bank of cabinets opposite, with a brass sink and mixer taps by deVOL. Appliances have been cleverly hidden away, and a large pantry is a useful spot for storing kitchen essentials. Adjacent is a handy boot room and WC, with a separate entranceway and bank of bespoke storage units. Past the brass staircase are the formal reception spaces. Currently divided into a dining room, with a sitting area at the rear, the room has decorative moulding and a deep dental cornicing which continues from the kitchen. A wood-burning stove sits in an open fireplace, and the room is lit by windows overlooking the front and rear of the house. A handy utility room sits just off the reception room, with space for white goods and linen storage, as well as a butler sink. Beyond here is the cosy informal sitting room. Added as part of the recent extension works of the house, the space has a large picture skylight above, and solid oak flooring underfoot, which covers the ground floor. The room, which overlooks the peaceful garden, has been finished with the blush pink 'Potted Shrimp' by Farrow and Ball. Across the first floor, there are four bedrooms and three baths. The primary suite occupies the front corner of the plan and has dual-aspect views over the garden. Finished in a calming white, the bedroom has a deep pile carpet and a large walk-in wardrobe with bespoke brass ironmongery in the shape of a radial sun. A primary en suite lined with Mandarin Stone tiles sits adjacent and has a wonderful oblong sink by Tom Dixon, a shower and a WC. There are three further bedrooms on the first floor; all with bespoke cabinetry and impeccable finishes; one also has an en suite, with pastel pink sanitaryware by West One Bathrooms. A large family bathroom completes the floor, with a freestanding copper bath and fixtures also by West One Bathrooms. The Great Outdoors Externally, the landscaped garden unfolds to the front of the house, bordered by pine, beech and cypress trees. A flagged terrace abuts the house and is perfect for dining during warmer months, while well-established perennials intermingle with fragrant magnolia stellata, lily of the valley and wisteria plants in a mixture of flat and raised beds. A decked area at the rear of the walled garden is home to a shiplap-clad studio space, lined internally with reclaimed wood; with an internal log burner and electricity, it is currently used as a cosy snug and TV room. The decking is partially shaded by a cypress tree and is used by the current owners as a hot tub space with an additional dining area. Rounding up the external grounds is a large garage building with a mezzanine floor above. The block has been recently added during current renovations and sits adjacent to the main house.

At the foot of Winchelsea Beach and within an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty is Morlais Ridge, an unmade road that borders Rye Harbour Nature Reserve. It is also the setting for The Shell House, a four-bedroom house beautifully reimagined by designer Pearl Lowe in recent years. Outside, an acre of gardens encompasses a two-bedroom cabin, a heated swimming pool and plenty of parking space. The house is well-placed for easy access to Rye, and to the sandy beaches of Camber just beyond. The Tour The house is set back from the lane behind gravel parking areas and a large front terrace, to which a bedroom and the kitchen open. To the left is the main entrance, opening through double doors to a large Victorian-tiled, deVOL-designed boot room and utility which serves as the main entrance. From here, a further set of double doors open to a music room, where a spiral staircase with Roger Oates-carpeted treads twists to the first-floor bedrooms. Beyond a bathroom and guest WC are the two ground-floor bedrooms, one of which is en suite; fixtures here are by Burlington. White-painted wooden floors extend throughout and blend with timber-clad walls and gentle off-white plaster. Each of the ground-level rooms opens up to outside space. The kitchen, breakfast room and rear reception are arranged in a sweeping open plan, with natural light pouring in from many directions including a roof light in the vaulted pitched ceiling. The kitchen is also by deVOL and is arranged around a huge copper-topped island. Light shaker cabinets are wonderfully paired with brass fixtures and a ceramic butler sink. As part of the renovation, the heating system and plumbing have been completely updated, and vintage cast-iron radiators have been added to contrast with the gentle wood aesthetics. The slatted ceiling of the kitchen turns to painted beams in the vaulted reception, and double doors open to the rear decked terrace. The timber cabin within the garden is a superb addition to the house, with two bedrooms arranged around an open-plan kitchen and reception with a wood-burning stove. It offers excellent independent guest accommodation or the option of holiday rental; both houses have been in great demand for the latter over the past year. Outdoor Space The garden of The Shell House is unusually large for the area, extending to around an acre. Borders of mature trees and shrubs around lawns and long-grass meadow sections merge to create a private, intimate setting and a haven for wildlife. Along Morlais Ridge, quiet paths offer tranquil walks through fields of pebbles to arrive at Winchelsea Beach. The Area Winchelsea Beach is a quiet seaside village and shingle beach, superbly positioned for easy access to the many highlights of the East Sussex coastline. Morlais Ridge itself backs onto the Rye Harbour Nature Reserve, composed of varying habitats: scrub, woodland and lagoons, and home to thousands of species of native wildlife. A fantastic backyard expanse for walking and cycling routes, or days on the beach. The popular town of Rye is less than three miles away and offers great restaurants the Globe Inn Marsh, The Fig and Standard Inn are particularly notable and there is also an independent cinema alongside a growing number of independent boutiques. The Old Town in Hastings is around 20 minutes by car and is home to the Hastings Contemporary, as well as a wide variety of shops and restaurants. Nearby Pett Level marks the end of the Royal Military Canal, a defensive structure that runs for 28 miles to Hythe in Kent, built in preparation for a possible invasion by Napoleon. The shallow lakes and reed beds of Pett Pools attract an enormous variety of both breeding and over-wintering wildfowl and waterbirds. The Saxon Shore Way footpath (running from Gravesend in Kent to Hastings) is easily accessed and there are spectacular walks along the Jurassic Coast across the Rye Harbour Nature Reserve. Pett Level Beach is also nearby and great for swimming, with a sandy cove which stretches all the way towards Winchelsea and Rye Harbour. There is a wide choice of state and private schools in the area, including Claremont School, Battle Abbey School, Buckswood at Guestling, Eastbourne College, Vinehall at Robertsbridge and Marlborough House in Hawkhurst. Rail connections from Rye are excellent, with branch-line train services to Brighton and Ashford offering high-speed connections to London St Pancras.

The house earnt its moniker from the various shell installations by the artist, depicting a variety of seaside themes such as fisherman on the front facade. Today, a close community of permanent residences and weekend retreats pepper the rustic lanes, from which the stunning coastal scenery unfolds.
