Little Friendly Green is a substantial period home set in almost an acre of mainly south-facing gardens, located in a peaceful rural hamlet between Tunbridge Wells and East Grinstead. The house offers flexible living with three reception rooms arranged off a welcoming hall, a practical kitchen with utility and larder, and five double bedrooms across two floors — well-suited to family life and home working.
The gardens are a standout feature: a long sunny rear lawn approaching 300ft, mature trees and hedgerows, a large wildlife pond, a walled garden, greenhouse and a detached barn/garage with a separate studio. Off-street parking is available on the block-paved driveway and there is shared single-track access. Cowden station is within easy reach for commuting, while the property sits inside the High Weald Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.
Practical points to note: heating is oil-fired via boiler and radiators, the building dates from the early 20th century and walls are assumed to be solid brick with no cavity insulation. These factors may mean higher running costs and potential upgrading work (insulation, modern heating alternatives). The plot and pond offer scope for landscaping or garden projects but will require ongoing maintenance.
This home will appeal to buyers seeking character, privacy and generous outdoor space in a rural setting — families who value good commuting links and access to countryside amenities, or buyers looking for a country base with scope to personalise and improve energy performance.
