Battle Road, DALLINGTON, TN21

Occupying a wonderful position within the High Weald this attractive Grade II listed 17th Century farmhouse enjoys a southerly aspect and lovely views.  The property offers a combination of period features with later additions and the benefit of improved levels of insulation.  The farmhouse has been sympathetically extended over the years with a wealth of exposed timbers and surprisingly good ceiling height.  The two principle reception rooms enjoy views across the gardens and each is centred around an inglenook fireplace with a wood burning stove.  The kitchen has a traditional farmhouse feel with bespoke cabinets, a Rayburn and a range of freestanding units that are available via separate negotiation.  The first floor accommodation is particularly versatile with two separate staircases, the principle bedroom is vaulted and enjoys an en-suite bathroom together with attractive views.  There are three further bedrooms as well as a useful mezzanine/attic space.  The bathrooms have been finished to a high standard with marble tiling.  The formal gardens are private providing attractive paved entertaining areas that look over the landscaped garden that includes a small orchard and children's play area.  At the front of the house is a double Heritage car barn which has an attached utility/boot room which is adjacent to the back door.  Beyond the formal gardens and, registered under a separate title, is a further area of approximately 2.46 acres of pasture grazing that incorporates a stunning re-constructed insulated barn.  Adjacent to the barn is a converted granary that stands elevated on traditional Statnol stones ideal as a home office.  It is thought these buildings may offer further potential subject to any necessary consent.
