Description

A rare opportunity to acquire an exceptional bespoke Potton home extending to approximately 2,700 sq ft, nestled in the heart of the historic and highly sought after village of Rodmell, enjoying views across neighbouring orchards and open countryside. Rodmell is perhaps best known as the home of Virginia Woolf's Monks House and remains one of Sussex's most desirable village locations.

This beautifully crafted timber framed residence was individually designed and built by renowned bespoke home designers Potton. Offering spacious and versatile accommodation throughout, the property combines character features including exposed timbers, a striking inglenook style fireplace and a log burner with excellent family living space.

The accommodation comprises a spacious sitting room, separate dining room, study, kitchen/breakfast room, utility room, cloakroom and tandem garage. Upstairs are four generous bedrooms, including a principal bedroom with en suite, family bathroom, additional storage room and access to a substantial loft space.

Externally, the property sits within mature gardens featuring extensive lawned areas, terracing and a jacuzzi area, with flint boundary walls adding character to parts of the front, side and rear boundaries. The setting offers a wonderful sense of privacy and tranquillity while remaining at the heart of one of Sussex's most desirable villages.

The sitting room and dining room were originally arranged as one large through room and could potentially be reinstated, creating an impressive open living and entertaining space if desired. The property offers an exciting opportunity for a purchaser to modernise and personalise certain areas while enjoying a substantial family home in an exceptional village setting.

Externally, Merlins enjoys a private, generous and beautifully established rear garden with a large lawn and patio area ideal for al fresco dining, framed by mature trees offering both privacy and tranquillity. A delightful pergola and hot tub area enhance the garden’s appeal.

About Oakfield, Lewes

64 High Street, Lewes, BN7 1XG

Our superb team in Lewes has vast knowledge of lettings and sales, with decades of combined local industry experience. So whether you're renting, letting out, buying or selling, we're ideally placed to help.

Professional yet friendly, our staff's huge expertise makes us much more than just another estate agent.

Excellent advice is underpinned by a deep knowledge of the industry in general, and this part of the world specifically. Our deep-seated local knowledge is partly down to our own love of our neck of the woods; we've all lived and worked in Lewes and around for years. And it's a running gag that we've been into most properties in the area at one time or another over the years.

The welcome is as warm as it is genuine - you'll notice the great atmosphere the second you walk through the door.

We're all about forging long-term relationships with everyone we work with, tailoring our services to suit individual requirements and doing more than perhaps the competition would to be there at every stage with our support, whatever you need us for.
