About this property

Set in mature landscaped gardens of 0.85 acres, a quintessential Arts and Crafts property of considerable character, upgraded to a high standard providing a marvellous balance of period features and modern convenience.

Tucked away on a country lane with easy access to the historic village of Mayfield, this beautifully reimagined 1920s property has been sympathetically updated while retaining its original charm with an abundance of period features including decorative brick facades and exposed beams. Upgraded with Swedish double-glazed windows and bespoke Chalon kitchen cabinetry, it is the perfect balance of period and modern.

The generous sitting/dining room centres around an open fire and opens directly onto the garden through French doors, while a dedicated study provides an ideal work-from-home space. A stylish ground-floor shower room adds convenience.

The kitchen and adjoining utility room span the rear of the house and combine practicality with considerable charm. The Chalon bespoke cabinetry balances natural wood with heritage-hued paint colours and compliments the traditional Aga, granite worktops, premium appliances and a substantial island. Sliding doors connect the terrace and gardens beyond, offering wonderful outlooks.

On the first floor, the bedrooms spur off the central landing with the principal suite featuring exposed beams, a dressing room and a luxurious en suite with twin basins and a freestanding bath. The further three bedrooms are all served by a charming family bathroom with claw-foot bath.

Sweeping lawns, ancient oak trees, colourful borders and mature planting create a landscape rich in wildlife and seasonal interest while the delightful Scandinavian-style Grill Hut with central fire pit provides a unique and novel entertaining area.

An orchard, pond and wildflower areas enhance the sense of tranquillity and there are several versatile outbuildings which offer further potential if required. There is additional pasture and woodland of 5.35 acres available by separate negotiation.
