Country lane location

This setting is a favourite with a few well-known faces who clearly appreciate the rural surroundings.

Glyndebourne Opera House is a 20-minute drive away for memorable evenings, and Buxted railway station is around 15 minutes away with trains up to London Bridge. Eastbourne and Tunbridge Wells are both reachable in about 30 minutes.


Inside Little Ponds

Step inside and there's an immediate sense of warmth - this is a home with a lovely, relaxed cottage feel. The kitchen is bright with modern units, and there is a stable door leading straight out onto the patio and garden, making it easy to drift in and out on sunny days. Underfloor heating keeps the kitchen toasty in winter. The dining room is a generous space for gathering with friends and family, flowing through into a large, comfortable lounge with double-aspect windows and doors that open onto the garden - so there's always a view of nature surrounding you.

There's also a really handy extra room on the ground floor, currently used as a study and playroom, but equally suited as a fourth bedroom if needed.

Upstairs, you'll find three bedrooms, all with their own character. The master bedroom has built-in wardrobes in a dedicated dressing area and its own en-suite bathroom. This is a calm, private master bedroom to retreat to - and you can have a coffee in bed overlooking the treetops. The two further double bedrooms are both well-sized, one with a feature fireplace and another with built-in storage.

Little Ponds is a three-bedroom house with character that feels welcoming, comfortable and full of natural light.


The garden

The garden at Little Ponds is something special - a space that unfolds as you explore it. It starts with a patio just outside the kitchen, ideal for sunny barbecues with friends and evening drinks. From here, steps lead up to a charming brick-built garden room, giving you space to enjoy the outdoors when it's a little windy or overcast. To the side of this is a decked area - tucked away and currently used for a swing seat.

There are two lawned areas, dotted with water features and a pond, giving the garden a peaceful feel. Follow the path further up and you'll discover another sunny seating area, complete with a log cabin currently home to a sauna and hot tub, with white clematis trailing beautifully over the roof.

At the far end, there's a large shed, two generous greenhouses, and several large raised vegetable patches, offering plenty of space for growing, pottering and making the garden your own. With a private driveway and garage, this is a garden - and a home - that invites you to relax, enjoy and create memories together.
