The south coast is easily accessible by car with sandy beaches at Camber and popular coastal towns including Rye, Hastings and Eastbourne.
Description
Originally used as an agricultural barn by the neighbouring King Johns Lodge, this very attractive building has been successfully converted by the current owners into a fine, up-to-date character home.
The property cleverly combines the best of old and new, with generously proportioned light-filled open-plan living accommodation, along with character features including an abundance of exposed beams and the impressive reception/dining hall with its vaulted ceiling, bespoke staircase and galleried landing.
Nice touches include the oak and tiled floors downstairs, the wood burning stove, the Rako lighting system and the stylish kitchen and bathrooms.
Outside, there are mature grounds, with a private drive, lawned gardens, trees, plants and shrubs, a rear terrace and two outbuildings, one being the old peacock house and the other being near the house and set-up as an additional room, potentially ideal as a separate home office.
Square Footage: 2963 sq ft
Acreage: 0.95 Acres
Directions
From Tunbridge Wells head south out of the town on Frant Road (A267), then through Frant and take the next road on the left towards Wadhurst (B2099). Continue through Wadhurst and Wallcrouch into the centre of Ticehurst village and turn right opposite The Bell pub into Church Road. Follow this road, passing the church on your left, out of the village and down into the valley. As the road starts to ascend again, turn left into Sheepstreet Lane, continue for about a mile and the entrance to The Granary Barn will be seen on the right. If you reach King John's Lodge you have gone too far.
