Palehouse Common, Framfield, TN22 5RB

REF MG1259

Some homes are designed to suit a particular way of life. Eason Stables is a home that makes you stop and think about not just the internal space, but the lifestyle you want when you step outside your front door. And pulling back the curtains and saying good morning to the cows is a good start.

Converted by the current owners, this detached barn enjoys a favoured south-westerly aspect, with its garden and paddock extending to around two acres in total. It offers a wonderful combination of character, space and that increasingly rare feeling of being surrounded by open countryside.

Inside, the barn provides the perfect open plan setting. Vaulted ceilings, exposed beams, traditional brickwork and stripped floors combine with the kitchen and sitting room to create a space that feels both characterful and practical; and a perfect spot to host friends and family.

The kitchen has ample work surface and preparation space, along with plenty of storage and appliances, whilst a third double bedroom is positioned directly off the open plan living area. Two further double bedrooms are accessed from the hallway, with bedroom one benefitting from a generous en suite. There is also a family bathroom, complete with a rolled top bath, enhancing that relaxed rural feel.

Outside, the two acres really come into their own. The garden provides plenty of space to enjoy the setting, whilst the paddock to the front adds to the smallholding feel and gives you that wonderful sense of space and privacy.

For those who may wish to work from home, the summerhouse provides a great dedicated space with both power and heating, whilst to the front of the property is a large workshop/triple garage, also with power. There is extensive off road parking, making this a particularly practical home for those with multiple vehicles, hobbies or simply a need for plenty of space.

The substantial workshop/triple garage also offers scope for a variety of uses, whether that be storage, a home business, hobbies or, subject to the necessary planning consents, potentially further accommodation.

Eason Stables is a home that offers something a little different. A characterful barn conversion, around two acres of outside space and a peaceful rural setting — yet with the convenience of being close to Framfield and the surrounding villages. It is a home where the outside space is every bit as important as what is inside, and one that offers a lifestyle that is becoming increasingly difficult to find.

Life around Eason Stables

Located less than 2 miles to the north of Palehouse Common is the picturesque village of Framfield. The sort of Sussex village where life moves at a slightly different pace. Surrounded by open countryside, it has a real village feel, with a traditional church, village school, recreation ground and local pub, whilst the surrounding lanes and bridleways provide plenty of opportunity to get out and enjoy the countryside. When you need a little more, Uckfield is within around three miles and provides all the everyday essentials, from supermarkets and independent shops to cafés, restaurants, a cinema, leisure facilities and a railway station.

And then there is Lewes, around eight miles away. A town with considerably more than just shops, Lewes brings independent businesses, restaurants, cafés, culture and history, as well as giving you easy access to some of the best countryside and coast that Sussex has to offer.  So whilst Eason Stables feels wonderfully tucked away when you are at home, you are not isolated. You have a proper village nearby, a good-sized town for everyday life and one of Sussex’s most characterful towns within easy reach.
