Situation: The property is situated on the outskirts of the much sought after village of Wadhurst within 1½ miles of the High Street.

For the commuter, Wadhurst mainline station is also about 1½ miles distant and provides a regular service to London Charing Cross/ Cannon Street in about an hour. There is a regular bus service and the A21 is also within easy reach providing a direct link to the M25 (junction 5) and the coast. Gatwick Airport is about 40 miles to the west, the Eurotunnel terminal at Folkestone is about 46 miles to the east and central London is about 50 miles away. The regional centre of Tunbridge Wells is about 7 miles distant and provides a comprehensive range of amenities including the Royal Victoria Shopping centre, cinema complex and theatres.
The beautiful surrounding countryside is a designated Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and includes Bewl Water Reservoir, reputedly the largest area of inland water in the South East, where a wide range of water sports can be enjoyed.
Description: Hill Lodge is a substantial semi-detached Victorian family house with brick external elevations beneath a tiled roof. The property has been very well maintained by the current owners and is immaculately presented, providing spacious and flexible accommodation, which includes three reception rooms, four/five bedrooms, three bathroom/shower rooms and comprises a living space of 2130 square feet / 198 square metres. The house also benefits from offering excellent scope for remodelling the kitchen to create a larger open plan kitchen/dining room, if required, and there are good-sized gardens and a garage.
The accommodation is arranged over two floors and includes: A spacious entrance hall leading to a dining room; a well proportioned sitting room with a bay window to the front and two fireplaces – one being an attractive stone open fireplace and the other being fitted with a wood burner. A door from the sitting room leads to a further reception room (currently used as breakfast room), which has a door to a utility room, cloakroom and to the kitchen, which has an extensive range of wall and base units, breakfast bar and door leading out to the garden. On the first floor there are four double bedrooms, with the main bedroom having a dressing room and two of the other bedrooms having walk-in wardrobe cupboards, two en-suite shower rooms and a family bathroom.
Outside, the house has off road parking for several cars (with plenty of parking also available on the lane) and a garage with power connected an up and over door. A gate leads to the front and side gardens and there is access to the landscaped rear gardens, which are mainly laid to lawn and planted with an abundance of mature shrubs, plants and trees, including a wonderful mature beech. There are decked and terraced areas, ideal for outdoor entertaining, and a summerhouse.
