It is ideal for entertaining, and the centrally-located large kitchen is a dream for cooking making it the heart of the home.

Externally, the well maintained south facing garden provides a private oasis for relaxing and outdoor entertainment, featuring a lovely patio by the large and well stocked koi and fish pond with a stream trickling into it. There is a manicured walled rose garden with established rose bushes offering a perfect spot for quite reflection or some yoga, along with terraced lawns for playing sports with the children, or hosting events in the summer time. There are many formal flowerbeds featuring a variety of well-established trees and shrubs.

The grounds provide significant potential to craft it to suit your lifestyle, such as for equestrian use, by adding stables or paddocks, or for developing leisure features such as a swimming pool or tennis court (previously granted). There are two generously sized outbuildings, as well as active permission for a triple bay garage with a one-bedroom apartment above which could provide an income stream if desired.

Situated within its own 2 acres and backing onto open farmland whilst enjoying fabulous far-reaching views, this country residence is only a short drive away from Battle with its mainline train station for London, making it ideal for London commuters.

The towns of Tunbridge Wells, Hastings, Eastbourne and Brighton are also within convenient driving distance. Depending upon education requirements, there are numerous reputable schools to choose from, including Battle Abbey, Bede’s, Vinehall and Eastbourne College to name but a few locally. There are numerous golf courses, as well as bridleways, rural walks, and sailing on the coast for leisure pursuits.

This property is full of further possibilities. Whether it’s enhancing the existing structure, adding luxury features, utilising the expansive grounds, or setting up a home business such as a B&B, there are endless opportunities to add value and personalise the space. The size and layout also make it suitable for multi-generational living, with the flexibility to adapt to various family needs.
