A distinguished 17th-century Sussex farmhouse sympathetically restored to blend original oak timbers, inglenook fireplaces and high ceilings with contemporary comfort. The house offers generous reception rooms centred on a dramatic double-height dining hall with a wood-burning stove and a bespoke kitchen with granite worktops and an AGA. Practical additions include a utility, study and underfloor heating alongside mains gas boiler provision.
Arranged over three floors, the home provides six bedrooms (two in the attic) and five bathrooms, including a principal suite with an en suite shower room. Large dual-aspect reception rooms and French doors from the drawing room give direct access to established, landscaped gardens and sheltered terraces that suit family life and entertaining. The property sits on a very large plot with ample off-street parking and a detached outbuilding with double carport, workshop and greenhouse — adaptable as a home office, gym or studio.
Set on a private road within moments of Forest Row village and Ashdown Forest, the location delivers rural tranquillity with excellent local amenities, good schools nearby and recreational options including golf and walking. The house is freehold and practical for modern living, but note the property sits in Council Tax Band G which is relatively expensive. Overall, this is a characterful family home offering significant space and flexibility, with some period fabric requiring ongoing sympathetic maintenance.
