A handsome Victorian detached home set in about 1.36 acres of professionally landscaped gardens and ancient woodland, offering abundant outdoor space and privacy for family life. The house blends period charm with a recently fitted bespoke kitchen/breakfast room, three reception rooms and flexible accommodation including a ground-floor bedroom and office. The plot includes a swimming pool, gazebo, detached workshop/pump house, gated parking and a detached double garage.
The principal bedroom enjoys south-facing countryside views and an en suite; four further bedrooms and a family bathroom provide comfortable family sleeping quarters. Practical features include a utility room, boot room, cloakroom, mains gas heating (boiler, radiators and some underfloor heating) and double glazing. Planning permission (Ref: WD/2015/2279) allows removal of the existing garage to add a two-storey extension, giving clear scope to enlarge or reconfigure the house further.
Notable positives are the extensive, private grounds, safe gated driveway and excellent mobile signal. Important factual drawbacks: broadband speeds are slow, council tax is described as quite expensive and the detached garage is not integrated with the main house. The property is unlisted but is a period home so ongoing maintenance should be expected.
Located under a mile from Buxted station with direct services to London, local primary schools rated well and easy access to Uckfield and Tunbridge Wells, the setting suits families seeking rural tranquillity with commuter links. Buyers seeking a fully turnkey modern house should note there is scope and planning for expansion rather than complete modernisation already being undertaken.
