House For Sale £735,000
The property sits on a substantial private, gated plot which allows plenty of room for a pleasant garden, ample parking and two separate outbuildings. And it's these two buildings which turn this from an attractive family home into something unique and special.
The ground floor of the main house has a choice of rooms where you can get together as a family.
There's a modern & well equipped kitchen / diner along with two reception rooms.
Both the lounge and dining room tick all the required period charm boxes, including gorgeous sash windows, traditional fireplaces and rustic wood flooring.
But if you're a budding artist, musician or you just work from home, the self contained studio will be a the perfect peaceful haven where you can slip out and relax.
In addition the beautiful log cabin provides everything required to become a home within a home including its own outdoor space.
There's a cinema room or a study/office, a shower room and a living area which includes a kitchenette. It could be perfect for a teenager looking for a little independence or if you have an older relative living with you but also if you need the space to work from then it could be ideal as a salon or an alternative therapy studio - it has the flexibility to suit your needs.
Back in the main house the first floor has three double bedrooms and a modern shower room.
The property is just off the Lewes Road, on a secluded private plot.
If you don't fancy cooking, the historic Roebuck Hotel is just a stone's-throw away or the tea rooms at the nearby Coolings Garden Centre is a lovely place to meet friends for a chat.
If you love exploring the countryside, well this is perfect - located within The Ashdown Forest you are just moments from some glorious walks amongst the magical woodland that inspired some of the world's best loved children's stories, the adventures of Winnie-the-Pooh
Just under 1 mile away is the luxurious Ashdown Park Hotel & Country Club where you can take advantage of the spa facilities along with the tennis club and an 18 hole golf course.
All your day-to-day needs can be met at Forest Row. The village is only a 5 minute drive away and has a range of local shops, pubs and cafés along with a Tesco Express as well as Plaw Hatch Biodynamic Farm just up the road for all your meat, eggs and vegetable needs plus more.
The nearest primary school is also in the village. Forest Row CofE Primary School is rated "Good" by Ofsted and is only a 6 minute drive away.
Older kids have a little further to go to reach Sackville School (another "Good" school) on the outskirts of East Grinstead but it's still only 10 minutes in the car or a 25 minute bike ride.
Alternatively, if you prefer fee paying schools, Greenfields is a respected independent boarding and day school for both boys and girls - and it's only five minutes away, Michael Hall is located in Forest Row and further afield but only a 10 minute drive Cumnor House in Danehill.
You can catch the train from East Grinstead to London or the coast. It will take around 10 minutes to drive to the station, with regular services to Victoria taking around an hour. Alternative stations with great links are Uckfield & Haywards Heath. You can reach Gatwick Airport within a 20 minute ride in the car also.
If this was just a spacious Victorian family home it would be incredibly popular. When you add in the versatility that the studio and wooden cabin bring, it's transformed into a class of its own.
Given its unique appeal, this property is likely to get plenty of interest.
Make sure you don't miss out - call Daniel Barnes today to arrange a viewing.

About Daniel Barnes:
Hi, i'm Daniel Barnes, partner of Amy and Father to Haydn & Blake, and I am your local, bespoke estate agent.
What's a bespoke estate agent? One who wants to improve your property sale experience by delivering exactly the service you need to sell your home on your terms.
I offer a truly unique service, tailored to the particular needs of each seller.
And I can do this as I only take on a limited number of properties at any one time.
This means I can give my clients direct access, service & contactability levels previously unheard of in the industry.
How do I know that? Because before setting up on my own in 2021 I had many years working at a senior level in the property industry.
So you won't ever be passed from pillar to post, or bounced between faceless agents with no knowledge of your property or position.
I am with with you every step of the way.
From the initial enquiry, to the valuation, showing potential buyers around your home, negotiating the very best price and then all the way to handing over keys to your new buyer.
Like the sound of that? If you're thinking of selling, please give me a call to see if I have availability to take on your home.
