Mayfield Flat, Heathfield, TN21

The Property
Substantial four-bedroom detached country home offering approximately 2,400 sq ft of internal living accommodation, plus extensive garaging.
Set within approximately 0.6–0.65 acres, providing an unusually generous plot with lawns and established garden areas.
Large double/triple garage complex of approximately 600 sq ft, positioned beneath the terrace, with hot and cold water and provision for a WC — offering excellent potential for workshop, hobby, vehicle or ancillary accommodation use, subject to any necessary consents.
Exceptional parking, comfortably accommodating six or more vehicles.
Impressive elevated terrace approximately 11m × 6m, accessed directly from the main living accommodation and overlooking the grounds.
20-panel solar PV installation, approximately 7.3 kWp, with battery storage and individual Tigo optimisers — a significant modern energy-saving feature.
Burley Bosworth wood-burning stove, providing an attractive and highly effective additional heat source.
Generously proportioned L-shaped layout, providing substantial living and entertaining space and an interesting architectural arrangement.
Four bedrooms with flexible accommodation suitable for family living, working from home or guests.
Large kitchen and principal reception areas with a strong connection to the garden and terrace.
Extensive outdoor space with scope for different seating, entertaining and recreational areas without compromising the main lawn and gardens.
Excellent annexe potential: the approximately 600 sq ft garage beneath the terrace, together with its existing hot and cold water supply and provision for a WC, could lend itself to conversion into self-contained ancillary accommodation — potentially suitable for extended family, guests, a home office or multi-generational living, subject to planning and any other necessary consents.
Further extension potential: positive written planning feedback has previously been received regarding a proposed two-storey extension, enlarging the kitchen and providing an additional bedroom above, subject to a formal planning application.
The L-shaped arrangement also provides additional roof area potentially suitable for solar thermal or other future energy improvements, subject to suitability and any required approvals.
Attractive East Sussex setting, with the surrounding countryside providing excellent opportunities for walking, cycling and enjoying the outdoors.
Located in Cross-in-Hand, a peaceful rural setting without a traditional village shopping centre, while being conveniently close to Mayfield, a charming historic village known for its tea rooms, antique shops and independent character.
Close to Heathfield, which provides a small High Street, supermarkets and a useful range of everyday shops and services.
Well placed for exploring the wider High Weald countryside, with numerous villages, country pubs, woodland and rural attractions within easy reach.
Good access towards Uckfield, Tunbridge Wells, Lewes and the wider East Sussex area, providing a useful balance between country living and access to larger towns.
A distinctive property combining substantial existing accommodation, a large plot, extensive garaging, renewable energy and genuine future flexibility — while already offering an excellent family home in its present form.
