Oak Oast is a rare, unlisted converted oast set in about 0.39 acres, offering distinctive period character and flexible family accommodation over three floors. The iconic roundel and retained original hop press give the house unique architectural interest; internal spaces mix generous reception rooms with more intimate, lower-ceilinged areas. The kitchen sits in the roundel and connects directly to the garden, while a conservatory and sitting/dining room with wood-burner extend living space for family life and entertaining.
Practical outbuildings add real value: a triple garage with a self-contained one-bedroom annexe above (kitchen/living area, bedroom and shower room) and a large workshop/old forge provide excellent storage, hobby space or income potential. The gardens are well established with patios, lawn, pond, greenhouse and productive beds, enjoying a generally south-westerly aspect and good privacy.
There are five bedrooms (three doubles, two singles) but only two main bathrooms, so families may need to adapt layouts or add facilities. The property is described as in good order overall, though the layout includes variable ceiling heights and some low beamed rooms which may not suit all buyers. Council tax sits in a higher band (F) and is an ongoing cost to factor into running expenses.
Positioned about 0.7 miles from Beckley village in a semi-rural setting within the High Weald National Landscape/AONB, Oak Oast offers quiet country living with good mobile signal and fast broadband. No onward chain makes for a straightforward purchase for buyers seeking a distinctive country home with separate annexe income or multi-generational living potential.
