The property enjoys a delightful setting on the edge of the favoured village of Forest Row. The house borders the Ashdown Forest with its 6,400 acres, ideal for walking and riding (by licence). The property was designed by the eminent architect Ernest Turner Powell in around 1905. Internally the house has been remodelled combining the best contemporary ideas yet retaining suitable character. There is extensive use of new and old oak throughout the house including floors, doors, beams, posts and panelling. There are a number of attractive brick fireplaces, these period features contrast beautifully with the contemporary elements such as low voltage lighting, sliding doors of sheet glass, most notably in the fabulous open plan kitchen/breakfast/family room. The beautiful modern kitchen has been individually designed and incorporates an Aga as well as a modern oven and hob. The gardens have been cleverly landscaped and to the north of the house is an area of orchard stocked with apple, pear and plum trees. Tennis court in need of repair. At the far end of the garden in a slightly wooded area is a spectacular tree house with a bridge and staging area.
