This handsome five-bedroom wing of a Georgian rectory sits in a picturesque village setting next to the church, offering generous rooms and far-reaching countryside views. The principal reception and main bedroom enjoy large sash-style windows and high ceilings, while character features include fireplaces, exposed beams and an attractive balustraded staircase.
Externally the property occupies a large, secluded garden with terraces, ponds, a greenhouse and summerhouse, plus an integral garage formed from a converted outbuilding. There is useful cellar storage and off-street parking. The location is strong for families: a well-regarded village primary school, local amenities, easy access to Ashdown Forest and direct rail connections from nearby stations to central London.
Buyers should note this is a Grade II listed building, which will restrict alterations and may complicate refurbishment works. The EPC rating is E. The house has solid brick walls (likely uninsulated) and secondary glazing; the property uses oil-fired central heating and private drainage (septic tank), so consider running and maintenance costs alongside an expensive local council tax band. Overall, the home is ideal for those seeking a sizable period family house with character and views, but it requires respect for listed-building constraints and some energy-efficiency limitations.
