Sheriffs Lane, Rotherfield, TN6

Built in 2015 to a high specification, this beautiful character “Heritage Potton” home occupies a truly exceptional setting, being set at the end of long private drive which serves just this house and one other, with a stunning outlook over a beautiful lake. The house itself was thoughtfully designed to embrace open plan family living and benefits from a plethora of features including a lake stocked with various species of fish including large carp, landscaped parkland grounds, all modern high specification conveniences, 4 car garage and a former stable block, currently used as storage but with potential for development. 

The house, which has been meticulously designed and beautifully constructed, features a wealth of natural oak partnered with glass to create a stunning contemporary family home. The accommodation is set over two floors and on the ground floor features an open plan kitchen/sitting room/dining room, study, utility room, games room and cloakroom. The open-plan kitchen/dining/reception room is the heart of this home and the perfect space for family living and entertaining, with a wonderful double-sided inglenook fireplace which serves both the kitchen and adjacent sitting room. The fully fitted modern kitchen itself has twin ovens, a large central island with inset hob and extensive cabinetry and quartz worktops and leads on to the spacious dining room. All three rooms have double French doors leading to the rear garden, which has been designed to incorporate two secluded paved areas, perfect for al fresco dining and relaxing. The study and sitting room enjoy views across the lake. 

On the second floor you find four double bedrooms, two ensuite bathrooms and a family bathroom. The beautiful principal bedroom suite overlooks the lake and features a vaulted ceiling and large ensuite bathroom with heated floor, walk in shower, twin sinks and a double-ended bath. The incline of the roof makes each room an interesting space. Every room has a wonderful aspect to either the lake at the front or the mature trees that surround the house. 

The house is highly energy efficient, heated by an air-source heat pump and with underfloor heating on the ground floor. 

The approach to the property is via a long tree-lined private drive which serves just this house and one other, which leads to a large parking area with room for several cars to the front of the property. Outside, the property features approx. 2.5 acres of park-like grounds and woodland, including a lake (stocked with various species of fish, including large carp,) a paved courtyard and built-in seating area at the rear of the house, and another overlooking the lake, both of which benefit from complete privacy. There is also a former stable block, which now serves as a useful storage area. 

The property is situated in an idyllic and secluded setting, yet close to 4 mainline stations to London, with good grammar and independent schools within easy reach. Royal Tunbridge Wells is only 15 minutes away and local amenities and shops are within a 5-10 minute drive.
