Description
On the ground floor, the dining room is to the front house with the staircase rising to the first floor and an impressive inglenook fireplace. A door leads through to an inner hallway where the study is found and to the rear, a lovely sitting room with box-bay window looks out to the garden. The drawing room is a very well proportioned, almost square room with heavily beamed ceiling, part panelled walls and two feature bay windows to the front which would originally have served as a shop front. To the rear of the house, with door opening directly to the garden, is a fitted kitchen/breakfast room with a large adjacent utility room.
The bedrooms are all arranged over the two upper floors of the house with the principal having a lovely brick built fireplace and adjacent room that would make an ideal dressing room or perhaps nursery. There are three further bedrooms on this floor, although one does have a low ceiling, and the family bathroom. A narrow staircase behind a door leads to the second floor where there is an additional bedroom and a large loft space which, with the relevant permissions, has excellent potential to create further accommodation.
Outside
The gardens to the rear are fabulous; being mainly laid to the lawn with a selection of established plants, shrubs and trees and with a brick-laid terrace adjoining the house providing a lovely spot in which to sit, dine and entertain. A driveway, shared with the neighbour, leads past an extensive single storey outbuilding which, subject to the necessary consents, has tremendous potential for either conversion or to be used to run a small business, studio etc.
There is a detached single garage along with a double garage, double carport and further building which until recently was used as stabling for ponies. A timber five-bar gate opens to a small yard area and provides access to the land, which whilst a little untidy, is made up of three excellent fields with some fine mature trees. In all the gardens and ground extend to just over 5 acres.
Situation
Occupying a privileged position at the very heart of this picturesque Sussex village, Hartfield holds a special place in literary history as the beloved home of the renowned A.A. Milne, the creator of Winnie the Pooh and Christopher Robin. The village offers a vibrant community atmosphere, complete with thriving local shop, welcoming pubs, a charming church and primary school. Additionally, Ashdown Forest is close-by, with endless stretches of beautiful open heathland, interlaced with enchanting footpaths and bridal paths.
For a more comprehensive shopping experience, the historic spa town of Tunbridge Wells lies approximately 9 miles away, boasting excellent retail facilities whereas the nearby towns of Crowborough and East Grinstead are approximately 6 miles away and the village of Forest Row is about 3.5 miles.
