Description:
Upper Broyle Farm is an outstanding property offering capacious, well-planned accommodation in a stunning setting. Exquisite architecture, rewarding eco-credentials, sweeping views over formal gardens to the field and the East Sussex countryside beyond, make this former dairy farm a beautiful, stylish home of considerable charm and character.
With origins dating back to the late 1800s, this property was sympathetically converted in the 1990s to create a well planned family home that is ideal for modern family living across ground floor level. The large Kitchen which is tastefully presented and beautifully fitted, is book-ended by a well-planned Utility Room and the formal Dining Room. The generously proportioned Sitting Room with feature wood burning stove and vaulted ceiling is particularly welcoming. Leading from the Reception Hall is a generous corridor that provides access to the 4/5 Bedroom suites.
Glazed doors and windows throughout are pine with maintenance free powder-coated aluminium external cladding, and argon filled triple glazing with windowsills in polished Jura stone. Mains water and electricity are connected to the property. Found above the carport is a solar panel installation in the roof, nominally of 4kw. This generates a tax-free income currently estimated at £2,000 per year which e understand is index linked. Heating and domestic hot water are supplied by a state-of-the-art air source heat pump, and together with cooking, lighting etc, the annual electricity bill is circa £1,500. There is a security alarm system, maintained on an annual contract. Sewage is treated by a Klargester located in the field and maintained annually. The roof has 270mm of mineral wood insulation, walls are dry lined with insulation between.
Outside:
Upper Broyle Farm is approached via a gated gravel driveway which provides access to the garaging and turning area under the impressive canopy of an established Oak tree. Importantly there are supplementary gated access points via shared entrance to the outbuildings and one to the south into the field.
The gardens and grounds are a true and rewarding feature. There is a formal garden with meadow grasses and garden pond frequented by the occasional Kingfisher, and a small orchard with three variants of plum, damson, mulberry, walnut trees, apple trees, and mistletoe. There is a south facing paved patio in front of both wings of the property where lavender and various herbs grow in abundance. The adjoining field slopes gently down to a stream-fed pond of almost half an acre (tbv), stocked with fish and home to resident mallards, coots, moorhens, and snipe, occasionally visiting herons and egrets. Truly a bird watchers haven.
Set in approximately 20 acres (tbv), the property boasts a number of outbuildings including a vast detached Barn of block construction with a double skinned insulated roof, electricity and re-enforced concrete floor, ideal for a vintage car collection or indeed a multitude of recreational purposes. The stable block, by Lavarde, comprises two stables and a tack/store room, again with double skinned insulated roof. There is also a large shed/small warehouse constructed of double skinned insulated steel, with double glazed windows and comprehensively fitted out with heavy duty steel racking.
Location:
A short conveyance away is the thriving and bustling village of Ringmer, with a strong sense of tradition and its own 13th century parish church, Church of St Mary the Virgin, situated adjacent to the large village green. Ringmer offers a local butcher's, farm shops, brewery and lively pubs, plus a weekly country market at the village hall. There is an active and friendly community of social clubs and societies including cycling, rambling, drama, bridge, history, art, croquet, cricket, football and more. The famous Glyndebourne Opera House is situated on the outskirts of the village.
The county town of Lewes (5 miles to the south/west) is fondly described as a small town with a big heart. Historians believe the name derives from the Old English ‘hlaews’ (‘hills’ or ‘mounds’) as Lewes is built into the slopes either side of the Ouse Valley. It was here that Simon de Montfort fought the Battle of Lewes against the King and where Tom Paine, author of ‘The Rights of Man’ once lived. Lewes has long been known for its spirit of independence and the inhabitants are proud of its significant history stretching back to Saxon times. Lewes is a great place to shop with so many independent, antique and quirky shops and also the perfect place to stop for a bite to eat or a drink in one of the eclectic number of pubs. There is also a working brewery situated in the heart of the community on the banks of the Ouse. Commuters abound with a mainline railway station (London/Victoria just over the hour) found at the bottom of Station Street, which in turn leads off the High Street. There are three supermarkets, the acclaimed independent Depot cinema, leisure centre, tertiary college, along with well attended primary and senior schools. The universities of Sussex and Brighton and the coast at Brighton are found 6 and 9 miles away respectively. Lewes is situated just off the South Downs way and within the magnificent South Downs National Park and is a paradise for walkers, cyclists and nature lovers.
