Summary - CHESTNUT LODGE MAIN STREET BECKLEY RYE TN31 6RS
3 bed 4 bath Semi-Detached
Spacious family home with light-filled orangery and extensive landscaped gardens.
Grade II-listed Regency house with striking period details
Chestnut Lodge is a striking Grade II-listed Regency house set on a large, carefully landscaped plot in the High Weald, moments from Rye. The house blends early 19th-century character—original fireplaces, shutters and floorboards—with a dramatic orangery kitchen extension that fills the home with light. Three double bedrooms all have en suite bathrooms, making this layout especially convenient for family life or for hosting guests.
The garden and outdoor spaces are a standout: south-facing decking, a summer house, pergola with productive vines and sheltered seating areas create private spots for children to play and for year-round entertaining. Practical features include a recently built double garage with EV charging point, a wine cellar and parking accessed from a shared driveway. There is no flood risk for the site.
Important practical points to note: the property’s Grade II listing brings restrictions and likely additional costs for alterations or repairs; any changes will require appropriate consents. Council Tax is in an expensive band. The nearest train stations are around 10 miles away, so daily commuting by rail will add travel time.
Overall, this home will suit families seeking a characterful, well-proportioned house with generous outdoor space and strong period detail, who accept the commitments of owning a listed building and the travel trade-offs of a rural location.
