5 bed detached house for sale

School Hill, Burwash TN19

This attractive Edwardian house is in a tranquil yet accessible setting close to the village. It has been considerably upgraded by the current owners with a new kitchen, en-suite shower room and a complete redecoration throughout in heritage colours.

The wide entrance hall has all the rooms spurring off the space with a useful utility room and wc to one side with the formal reception rooms to the other. A charming reception/family room has a feature fireplace with logburner, two wide sash windows to the side and a range of bespoke bookshelves whilst the sitting room also has a fireplace with log-burner and a deep square bay window with lovely outlooks over the gardens and countryside beyond. The double aspect kitchen/dining room is a real feature of the house with Neptune shaker style cabinetry under quartz work surfaces, an Everhot range cooker and integrated appliances with a peninsular unit. The room is flooded with natural light form the bifold doors and wide windows offering fabulous views out to the garden and there is plenty of room for a dining table and chairs. There is also a very generous cellar with a good ceiling height.

The first floor has a marvellous galleried landing with a window offering spectacular views over the open countryside with the four bedrooms and study spurring from here. The principal bedroom has a recently fitted en-suite shower room with Burlington sanitaryware and the three further bedrooms all share the well-fitted family bathroom. There is also a first floor study which could also be a bedroom if required. The house is beautifully and thoughtfully decorated throughout with heritage colours emphasising the period of the house with plenty of space for a family, however there is also a very generous attic space and due to the proportions of the landing, it would be feasible to create a 2nd floor of accommodation if required (subject to the usual consents).

Outside

Set behind metal gates with a wide parking and turning area leading to a detached double garage, the gardens are a real feature of the house, wrapping around the house to provide different areas for playing, entertaining and relaxing. There is a large lawned area to the left of the driveway with an orchard, mature trees and hedging whilst a very pretty yew hedged garden provides a focal point closer to the house. A paved terrace spans the rear of the house, a marvellous spot for entertaining and taking in the far-reaching countryside views with further lawns and colourful shrub borders to the rear and side of the house.

Situation

Occupying a charming semi-rural position less than 1⁄4 of a mile from Burwash village, the market town of Heathfield is just over 6 miles away for everyday shopping including both Waitrose and Sainsburys whilst Tunbridge Wells is 13 miles away with comprehensive shopping facilities including the historic Pantiles with a wide range of independent shops, bars and restaurants.
