Description

This substantial detached family residence, crafted by the reputable H & E Waters, presents a unique opportunity for refurbishment just a stone's throw from the village and Ashdown Forest. The property boasts a welcoming hall that leads into three generous reception rooms, each featuring fireplaces, with one offering access to a charming veranda. The kitchen currently lacks units but is complemented by a separate breakfast room, while practical spaces include a utility room, larder, and two cloakrooms on the ground level. On the first floor, there is a landing with storage for the gas boiler and hot water tank alongside six bedrooms—most equipped with fireplaces—two bathrooms, and a separate WC. Additionally, the second floor hosts an independent flat complete with its own bedroom, bathroom, and kitchen/living area. Set on approximately 1.65 acres of land, this property features a sizable garden primarily laid to lawn adorned with mature trees and rhododendrons. A gravel driveway offers ample parking in front of the house and leads to a garage needing some repairs. At the rear, residents can enjoy a veranda and previously cultivated vegetable garden complete with greenhouse. With all main services in place including gas heating and situated within reach of local amenities in Forest Row as well as easy access to transport links including East Grinstead railway station for quick commutes to London, this property holds considerable investment potential for those looking to restore it to its former glory while enjoying scenic views of Ashdown Forest.
