About this property

A characterful Grade II-listed former farmhouse, surrounded by stunning countryside with landscaped gardens, cottage, swimming pool and paddock.

A truly unique country home that has been lovingly extended and refurbished by the current owners, set in an outstanding location with excellent schools nearby and easy connections to London, Gatwick and Brighton.

Great Coopers Corner Farm ticks a plethora of boxes for the discerning buyer: a fabulous setting just outside the village of Balcombe, beautiful gardens including a swimming pool, additional paddocks with stables – for the keen equestrian, and flexible accommodation across the main house with a stunning separate fully contained cottage. Elegant and packed with historic charm, the main house has 15th and 17th-century origins which can be seen in its timber-framed external elevations and array of character features. From the house and its grounds there are beautiful views over the surrounding Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. Privacy is paramount, with a long, sweeping drive – gated by the house – affording a secluded position. While distinctly rural, there is excellent access to surrounding towns and villages A23 and M23.

Outside
Expansive gardens enjoy far-reaching views to the south over the mature, wooded hills; to the north, the house looks out over its own paddock which includes a stable block sheltered by a stand of trees – the latter in need of some repairs. There is excellent potential for equestrian use or as a smallholding. The area has plenty of quiet lanes and a network of bridleways, providing excellent hacking from the doorstep.

To the south, lawns extend to a boundary of mature hedging while an expansive terrace wraps around the outside of the house, creating a great area for alfresco entertaining. Tucked away unobtrusively behind the garage, a swimming pool sits within a generous terrace with its own pool house, leading to walled gardens including landscaped seating areas and a kitchen garden with raised beds. Electric gates open to a gated gravel parking area in between the house and its outbuildings, with space for a good number of cars and access to the detached triple garage.

Situation
Great Coopers Corner Farm enjoys an idyllic setting just outside the village of Balcombe. Balcombe is just under a mile to the east and is a sought-after village with a wide range of amenities, coffee shop, hairdresser, florist, gift shop, convenience store and a popular pub, village hall, tennis and cricket club. Haywards Heath mainline railway station offers an alternative London link. The surrounding countryside offers superb leisure facilities and a variety of footpaths and quiet lanes for dog walking, hiking, trail running or biking for miles around, within both the High Weald National Landscape and the South Downs National Park.
