Summary -
Forge House,Swansbrook Lane,HEATHFIELD,TN21 0LD
TN21 0LD
3 bed 1 bath Detached
Half-acre level gardens, woodland and golf-course views with extension potential.
No onward chain — offers invited
Set in half an acre of level, mature gardens, this detached Victorian cottage sits on a quiet country lane backing onto fields and woodland. Two reception rooms, a kitchen and utility cloakroom provide practical family living on the ground floor, while three bedrooms and a generous bathroom occupy the first floor. The property faces the rear of a golf course and benefits from direct access to nearby public footpaths – a rare, protected-feeling setting.
The house offers clear scope for enlargement: the larger reception room was a former extension and there is obvious potential to add a fourth bedroom and second bathroom above (subject to planning permission). Detached garage, rear workshop and multiple timber outbuildings give substantial storage and hobby space, while level lawns, vegetable beds and a greenhouse suit gardening or small-scale amenity occupations.
Practical considerations: the home is served by mains water and electricity but uses a septic tank for drainage and oil-fired heating (Aga provides some heating and hot water). The property is sold freehold with no onward chain, but the tax band is F and any major changes or extensions will require planning approval and likely further investment. The setting is quiet and affluent, about eight miles from the nearest mainline stations, making it suited to those seeking country living with commuter links.
