This stunning Grade II listed family home offers well balanced and beautifully presented accommodation, arranged over three floors, with a wealth of period features throughout.
The front door opens into the spacious dining hall which has a charming inglenook fireplace with bressummer beam above giving a focal point to this. The dining hall gives access to the other reception rooms, the principal one being a charming sitting room with two sets of windows to the front. There is also a snug/study to the rear as well as a shower room.
The double aspect kitchen/breakfast room is situated at the rear of the home with side windows looking out over the pretty village church, and a rear window overlooking the patio and lawned garden beyond.
Stairs rise to a sizeable first floor landing with study area. The principal bedroom offers beautiful views over the church as well as two large fitted wardrobes with shelves and a feature fireplace. There is a further double bedroom and a substantial family bathroom with bath and separate shower on this floor.
On the second floor there is a further guest bedroom and useful integral cupboard space on the landing as well as an access hatch to the loft storage area.
Outside, the back door leads to a large patio terrace area, the bin store, lawn mower store and a large laundry room which is fitted with power and light. A greenhouse to the rear completes the outbuildings.
The garden has been beautifully landscaped and is laid mainly to lawn with a range of flower and shrub borders. Market Cross enjoys a private rear gate which leads onto Horns Road and the village pond.
The property does not have private parking but the current owners park on Horns Road.
The property is located on The Moor side of the popular village of Hawkhurst with lovely views over the church. It is close to the wide range of shopping and leisure facilities available including Tesco and Waitrose supermarkets, a post office, cinema and golf course. Etchingham and Staplehurst both offer mainline services to London, as does Tunbridge Wells together with an extensive range of shopping, commercial and educational facilities. The ancient town of Rye and coastal beaches are within easy travelling distance.
