Description

 The Property

The house comprises a Grade II Listed farmhouse believed to be of Tudor origin. The Farmhouse presents mellow brick lower elevations and tile hung upper elevations beneath a pitched tiled roof and repairs have been carried out to a high standard. The brick, terracotta tiled and oak floors compliment the waxed pale oak timbers throughout and high quality oak fitments have been teamed with granite and marble to give an overall impression of restrained opulence. The versatile outbuildings might be used as home office space, for a variety of activity or storage uses or as stabling. The attractive detached barn converted to a games room opens onto an area of lawn with ornamental pond. The property sits within approx. 4 acres of gardens and grounds with a cordoned off area of paddock. The property enjoys delightful far-reaching views towards Beachy Head and farmland.

Seller’s Comments

“This has been a fantastic home, with space for the family to grow & enjoy. It’s a peaceful environment with far reaching views of the countryside. We will be reluctant to leave this family home; however we feel that it’s too big for two, now that the children have moved on.”
