Set within a peaceful rural hamlet near Rye, Orchard House is a substantially extended and newly renovated six-bedroom detached home arranged over three floors. The property combines period charm with contemporary fittings: a striking 37ft open-plan kitchen/diner with central island, walk-in pantry, lit well and bifold doors that open onto the rear lawn and woodland. Two principal reception rooms, a utility/boot room and ground-floor shower room support family living and entertaining.
The principal suite is arranged over the first floor with a dressing room and en-suite shower, linked by an attractive spiral staircase; two further double bedrooms sit on the first floor with a family bathroom. The second floor provides a flexible central room and two additional bedrooms, ideal for teenagers, guests or a home office. Overall the accommodation totals six bedrooms, three bathrooms and three reception areas across about 2,562 sq ft.
Outside occupies about one acre of level garden flowing into native woodland, with a newly built garage, large driveway and four sizeable outbuildings. The plot offers scope for hobbies, storage or further development subject to consents, but the grounds will need ongoing maintenance and some landscaping to reach their full potential. Practical points: freehold tenure, mains gas heating with boiler and radiators, double glazing, no flood risk and an EPC rating of D.
This house will suit families seeking space and rural privacy, or buyers wanting a characterful home with modern living areas and significant external land. Note the property sits in an ageing rural neighbourhood with average local crime, council tax described as expensive, and some upkeep required on extensive grounds despite the recent internal renovation.
