FLEXIBLE ACCOMMODATION
The main house is arranged by the current owners to have a large, spacious landing. Originally this was occupied by another bedroom. It would not be difficult to re-instate the extra bedroom, to give this property 5 bedrooms overall, if that was your preference. The annex is currently scheduled as a granny annex but it could offer space for guests, parents, older children or offer income potential as Air BnB accommodation or other letting. The home office could equally be used as a summerhouse, games room or somewhere to relax and enjoy the views.
The property has benefited from much remodelling and extension over the years and offers plenty of charm including the pretty porch by the front door, swathed in spring-time roses and clematis. The heart of the house is the country kitchen/dining room with french doors opening into the conservatory, which is set up presently for entertaining and dining. The property has been equipped with modern double glazed windows throughout, which enables its excellent sound and heat performance. There is also a useful utility room coming off the kitchen, equipped with under floor heating. The double aspect drawing room connects from the kitchen/dining room and contains a feature inglenook fireplace. It has south-facing double doors leading to the outside patio and the garden. Upstairs there are two, double aspect bedrooms and one single aspect bedroom, a large landing, two bathrooms (one en-suite). As noted above, this space could be remodelled to offer an extra bedroom, if needed.
Outside the established gardens include large flat lawn areas, mature trees, bushes and specimen plants. There is off-road parking for more than 6 cars as well as the double garage. Driveway lighting operates automatically on a timer and motion sensor lights offer security. There are 3 outbuildings used as garden sheds. Surrounding the gardens is mature boundary hedging planted with bushes and trees. The garden is ideal for growing flowers, vegetables and for entertaining, with plenty of space for a marquee, sun-loungers, parasols, bbq stove, paddling pool, swing or trampoline. All that a family could need!
From our office in Battle High Street proceed in a northerly direction turning right into Mount Street and proceeding along into Whatlington Road. Continue all the way along to Woodmans Green Roadturning right at the public house. A driveway at the side of the public house leads to the property.
