Set on just under an acre at the edge of Ashdown Forest, this detached sandstone home blends period character with modern living. Large oak floors and doors, bay windows and fireplaces preserve 19th‑century charm while a bespoke kitchen with bi-fold doors, granite worktops and Miele appliances creates a bright, social heart. The house offers flexible living across multiple floors, including a snug/music room and generous principal suite with en‑suite.
Outside there is a substantial kitchen garden, a feature pond, mature planting and two versatile outbuildings — one structurally ready to be finished as a self‑contained annex, the other subdivided with water and drainage. A newly installed wood‑burner sauna and direct access onto the Ashdown Forest add notable lifestyle appeal for families who value outdoor living and privacy.
Practical considerations are important: the home is oil‑heated with a boiler and radiators, glazing install dates are unknown, and the original sandstone walls are assumed uninsulated. The annex requires completion to provide independent living or rental income. Overall, this is a rare, characterful rural property suited to buyers seeking substantial indoor space, extensive gardens and countryside access, with scope for modernisation and energy improvements.
