Description

This spacious detached bungalow, built in the 1930s and extending over 4,000 square feet, offers a unique opportunity for renovation and investment. Nestled within approximately 3.78 acres of landscaped gardens, grazing paddocks, and mature woodlands, this property is well-equipped for those looking to create their ideal rural retreat or capitalize on its potential for multi-generational living. The property features five bedrooms, including four main double bedrooms each with ensuite facilities. In addition, a thoughtfully converted garage presents a fifth bedroom complete with an ensuite bathroom and dressing room. This space could easily be transformed into a self-contained unit or home office with proper planning permissions. The grounds include existing equestrian facilities such as a stable block and storage barn, which could also be repurposed as ancillary accommodation or an office space. The extensive driveway allows ample parking for multiple vehicles and provides easy access for horse boxes. Inside, the layout comprises large reception areas filled with natural light. A vaulted reception hall leads to an orangery that boasts triple aspect views over the picturesque grounds and beyond to the South Downs National Park. The living spaces are designed with family in mind, featuring generous room sizes including a family room with a feature fireplace and an open-plan kitchen/dining area. Location-wise, this property sits conveniently between Cowbeech and Herstmonceux while remaining within easy reach of both Polegate and Stonegate train stations for direct access to London. Local amenities are accessible in nearby Rushlake Green, Hailsham, and Heathfield. With its adaptable living spaces, existing equestrian facilities, and substantial land area offering various uses—from agricultural to potential development—this property represents an exciting prospect for investors or those looking to renovate a classic country residence into something truly special.
