Limes Lane, Buxted, TN22

A handsome double-fronted Victorian home, thoughtfully restored to an exceptional standard while retaining its classic character. The property presents an elegant façade with sash windows, a central front door, and landscaped gardens, offering a wonderful balance of period charm and modern comfort.

The interiors have been beautifully reimagined, blending period proportions with refined contemporary detailing. A welcoming entrance hall with decorative tiled flooring and a traditional staircase sets the tone for the home’s craftsmanship and charm.

The ground floor flows through a series of elegant reception rooms, including a bright drawing room and sitting room, each with bay windows and restored fireplaces. Oak flooring runs throughout, complemented by soft neutral tones, bespoke joinery, and brushed brass lighting.

At the heart of the home, the kitchen and breakfast room features shaker-style cabinetry in soft sage, solid wood worktops, and integrated AEG appliances. A butler sink, Miele induction hob, subtle pink tile splashback, and adjoining utility area add warmth and practicality. A cloakroom and downstairs W/C complete the ground floor.

Upstairs, the principal suite includes a dressing area with built-in wardrobes and a luxurious bathroom with freestanding bath, walk-in shower, and double vanity. Additional double bedrooms share a beautifully appointed family bathroom finished in marble-effect tiling with brushed gold fittings. The top floor offers a further bedroom suite with charming eaves and a stylish shower room illuminated by a skylight.

Throughout, traditional radiators, modern fixtures, and thoughtful detailing enhance the home’s refined yet comfortable aesthetic.

Outside

The property is approached via a gravel driveway providing ample parking and access to the garage. The front garden is attractively bordered with box hedging and brickwork, while the rear garden offers a generous lawn, mature trees, and well-tended planting providing privacy and seclusion.

A particularly charming feature is the original Bake House within the garden — currently unconverted but offering tremendous potential as a studio, annexe, or home office.

Situation

The property enjoys a peaceful position along Limes Lane, close to the heart of Buxted — a sought-after East Sussex village surrounded by beautiful countryside.

Buxted offers a welcoming community atmosphere, with local amenities including a traditional pub, village store, and well-regarded primary school, while the mainline station provides direct services to London Bridge, making it ideal for commuters.
