Description
Behind the charming façade of this remarkable family home lies a bold and thoughtful reimagining that blends heritage with contemporary functionality. Originally dating back to 1890 and once part of a local estate, the property has been entirely transformed since 2006 to create a home of rare individuality and warmth. Every improvement has been tailored to support the needs of modern family life while retaining the elegance and charm of its rural roots. From generous living spaces to the flexibility of a separate annexe or home business space, this house effortlessly balances beauty with versatility.
The house welcomes you via a private gravel driveway, surrounded by mature gardens and framed by gabled windows, traditional panelling, and window boxes inspired by alpine design. Step inside through a panelled oak door into a beautifully tiled porch and then into the impressive dining hall. Oak floors, a coved ceiling, and a soaring galleried landing introduce you to the scale and craftsmanship that defines the property. Here, daily living unfolds with ease: The layout allows for natural zoning between entertaining, family time, and quiet retreat, with a snug, TV room, and office all feeding off the heart of the home.
At the centre, the bespoke open-plan kitchen and dining space is the ultimate family hub. Hand-painted cabinetry, solid oak worktops, and integrated appliances offer both practicality and style. With French doors opening into a conservatory that captures the light all day long, it's a space designed for real connection, whether that's sharing breakfast at the breakfast bar or keeping an eye on children enjoying the garden's zip wire. Nearby, a large utility room provides extra storage and function without compromising the aesthetic.
One of the home's most distinctive features is the conversion of the former garage into a fully equipped, underfloor-heated gym with its own en suite and private entrance. Whether used as an Airbnb guest facility, a luxury annexe, or a home studio, this adaptable space offers scope for creative living. Adjacent to a private study and family snug, the entire wing has been designed with flexibility in mind.
Upstairs, the home continues to impress. The principal suite is a sanctuary of calm, with a private balcony overlooking the south-facing lawn, a vaulted dressing room, and a luxurious four-piece en suite. Additional double bedrooms offer ample space for growing families or guests, with fitted wardrobes, tranquil views, family bathroom and a modern en suite. Throughout the upper floor, skylights, bespoke joinery, and soft textures elevate the sense of light and space.
Set within over an acre of landscaped gardens, the grounds feel as thoughtfully curated as the interior. Tree swings, a chicken coop, a sun-drenched patio, and layers of well-established planting invite outdoor living all year round. Here, summer parties flow from conservatory to garden while winter evenings are warmed by the inglenook fireplace.
Tucked away in the picturesque village of High Hurstwood, this home offers a rare blend of peace, privacy, and community. With excellent schools nearby, easy access to London via Buxted station, and the beauty of Ashdown Forest on your doorstep, it's a place to settle, grow, and truly make your own. For those seeking a character-rich, future-ready home in a truly special setting, this is a rare opportunity.
