Description

Set in an elevated position within Ashdown Forest, this property enjoys uninterrupted rural views across the South Downs, stretching from Birling Gap in the east to Chanctonbury Ring in the west. Offering 1,856 sq ft of deceptively spacious accommodation, the house provides excellent versatility and scope, with potential for refurbishment or remodelling.

The ground floor features an entrance porch opening into a generous kitchen/breakfast room fitted with matching units. Double doors lead through to an impressive, double-aspect open-plan sitting/dining room with direct access to the garden. An inner hallway connects to a ground floor bedroom/reception room, a nearby shower room, a large utility room, and an integral garage/workshop, which could be adapted to create self-contained living space if desired.

On the first floor, a spacious landing leads to a double-aspect principal bedroom with built-in wardrobes, two further double bedrooms, a dressing room/study, and a family bathroom.

Approached via an unmade track, the property sits behind a gated front driveway with parking for several vehicles. The gardens wrap around all sides, predominantly laid to lawn, while to the rear a flagstone patio offers a south-west facing aspect and outstanding 180-degree views.

The property lies just off New Road at the entrance to Crest Farm, in a truly rural position within Ashdown Forest. The nearby village of Fairwarp offers a church, popular pub, and tearoom. Maresfield provides a post office, village store, hotel/restaurant, church, recreation ground, village hall, and an excellent primary school, along with sports facilities including bowls, tennis and gymnastics.

For wider amenities, Crowborough (3.3 miles) and Uckfield (6 miles) both offer shopping, leisure and schooling, together with rail services to London. Haywards Heath (13.7 miles) provides fast links to London Victoria in around 47 minutes. The A22 gives easy access to Lewes and Eastbourne, while Tunbridge Wells (11.3 miles) offers further shopping, dining, and rail connections.
