This striking five-bedroom farmhouse, dating back to the late 17th century, offers considerable renovation and investment potential across nearly 2,600 square feet of living space. The home features a combination of red brick and tile-hung façades, providing a charming exterior that hints at its historical significance.
Internally, the property is arranged mostly over two floors, with an adaptable layout that invites modern updates while still highlighting its period character. The inviting entrance hall leads to several well-proportioned rooms, including a spacious drawing room where original parquet flooring and an inglenook fireplace create a warm atmosphere. Adjacent to this space is a study with expansive French doors that open directly to the garden, allowing for abundant natural light.
The central dining hall enhances the home’s entertaining capabilities, featuring another traditional fireplace and access to a practical utility area with an en suite WC. A cozy sitting room rounds out the ground floor space, showcasing a classic corner fireplace equipped with a wood-burning stove.
The kitchen/breakfast room presents an opportunity for enhancement; while currently functional with quarry-tiled flooring and an Aga, it benefits from modernization to fully realize its potential as a lively gathering space.
Ascending to the first floor reveals a spacious split-level landing leading to four generous bedrooms—including a principal suite with fitted storage—as well as both a family bathroom and shower room. An additional staircase leads to the second floor's charming double bedroom featuring vaulted ceilings and an adjoining dressing room.
Situated on approximately 0.79 acres behind established hedges, the property boasts an in-and-out gravel driveway that provides ample parking and access to a detached double garage. The rear garden is thoughtfully designed across two levels with well-tended flower beds and includes features such as a swimming pool, timber summer house, brick store, greenhouse, and various terraces ideal for outdoor entertaining.
Located in the desirable village of Isfield, this property enjoys proximity to essential amenities including local shops and pubs while being within easy reach of larger towns such as Uckfield and Lewes for more extensive shopping options. The surrounding area offers numerous recreational activities ranging from leisure centers and golf courses to scenic walking routes. Excellent transport links further enhance its appeal; local bus routes connect residents to regional hubs while nearby train stations provide direct services into London.
This farmhouse not only serves as a family home but also represents an enticing investment opportunity for those looking to restore or renovate in this attractive East Sussex locale.
