House For Sale £1,450,000
A stunning contemporary family home enjoying far-reaching views and a very convenient location.
Description
Built and converted to a bespoke specification in 2016, The Barn at Summerhill is an impressive light-filled family home offering generously proportioned accommodation, with a good level of privacy.
The property is conveniently located in the village of Five Ashes, between the historic village of Mayfield and the market town of Heathfield and approximately 11.4 miles south of Tunbridge Wells.
The presentation is immaculate throughout. Contemporary fixtures and fittings sit well with the traditional-style barn construction boasting a wealth of green oak joinery, vaulted ceilings and huge picture windows which allow for full appreciation of the far reaching view.
The striking central living area, incorporating a stylish Neptune fitted kitchen, provides wonderful open plan space ideal for entertaining, whilst a separate study offers more private space.
The adaptable bedroom accommodation is arranged over two floors, with two good-sized en suites at the top, and a further two en suites on the ground floor, one of which opens directly out to the garden. A further bedroom 5 is currently used as a sitting room, again, opening out to the garden. This benefits from a "jack and jill" shower room, shared with bedroom 2, and there is a further stylish bathroom, providing five bedrooms and five bathrooms in all.
The Barn enjoys an elevated position with outstanding views over fields towards Crowborough and the Ashdown Forest to the rear. The garden stretches mostly to the rear, with a wide flagstone terrace merging to an area of lawn and an orchard planted with young fruit trees. The boundaries are well-screened with trees and shrubs.
To the front, the gated driveway leads to a large parking and turning space and a flagstone path with lavender borders. The boundaries are well-screened with trees and shrubs.
The driveway continues round to a further gate giving access to the outbuildings comprising a detached oak framed car port and store, with a large loft store above and a substantial wooden stable block, in keeping with the style comprising two stables and a feed/tack room with w.c, sink and plumbed for hot water.
Beyond are two undulating fields of about 3.6 acres, with mature trees to the boundaries, making about 4.5 acres in all.
