Set within ten acres of landscaped gardens, paddocks and woodland, this Grade II listed country house combines centuries of history with modern-day comfort. Parts of the house date back to the 15th century, when it stood as a timber-framed hall house; later Victorian additions brought scale and grandeur, and more recently the home has been sensitively updated and enhanced including the addition of a light-filled orangery. The result is a home of rare character and charm, offering the best of heritage and contemporary living within easy reach of Haywards Heath and London. Inside, the house extends to more than 4,400 sq ft. At its heart is a bespoke kitchen, centred around a four-oven Aga with granite worktops and integrated appliances, which flows into the orangery via French doors. Elegant dining and drawing rooms showcase period detailing including a cosy inglenook fireplace, while a study with direct garden access and an adjoining shower room provides flexibility for guests or multigenerational living. Across the upper floors there are six bedrooms and four well equipped bathrooms , three of which are ensuite . The grounds are equally impressive. A heated outdoor pool with retractable cover allows for year-round use, while an all-weather tennis court and a boating pond enhance the sense of a private country retreat. A timber outbuilding accommodates two stables, a tack room and machinery store, with post-and-rail paddocks stretching beyond. Separate garaging and storage add to the property's practical appeal and take the overall square footage to an impressive 5750 sq ft The setting is idyllic yet well connected.
