Externally, the large gardens encircling the property offer diverse landscaping opportunities with established shrubs and plants adding color throughout the seasons. There is also a summerhouse split into two rooms that could serve various purposes or be transformed further. Parking is abundant with a spacious timber double garage featuring loft storage above, alongside driveway space accessed via a five-bar gate. With its unique features and prime location just 2.5 miles from Forest Row—where you can enjoy local shops, cafes, restaurants, and health services—and within four miles of East Grinstead for broader amenities and rail links to London, this property holds remarkable investment potential for those looking to enhance its charm and value over time.
