Spacious renovated period family home with annexe, garage conversion potential and forest views.
Stunning 4/5 bedroom period house over 2,600 sq ft
This handsome period cottage blends historic character with generous modern living across 2,600+ sq ft. Original beams, an inglenook fireplace with woodburner and flagstone flooring give the main house strong period appeal, while a fully fitted 21ft x 20ft kitchen/dining space and recent renovation provide comfortable, usable family rooms.
The plot benefits from a private south‑east facing garden with Indian sandstone terraces and decking that capture sun and provide uninterrupted views over Ashdown Forest. A detached 263 sq ft former coach house offers guest or annexe use, while a large two‑storey 20ft x 18ft garage—with planning permission to convert the loft—adds flexible scope for ancillary accommodation or a home studio.
Practical points to note: heating is oil‑fired via boiler and radiators, the property sits on solid brick walls (assumed uninsulated), and broadband speeds are slow. Council tax is above average. These factors should be considered alongside the home's size, rural location and recent upgrades.
Set at the end of a quiet, tree‑lined no‑through lane and just 300 yards from Nutley high street, the house suits a family seeking space, countryside access and village community life, with commuter links within a 20–30 minute drive to mainline stations.
