Description

Garnham H Bewley are delighted to present to the market this charming 1950's Arts and Crafts-style detached family home, ideally located close to East Grinstead, Ashurst Wood village, and a range of local amenities, schools and the picturesque Forest Way Country Park. This delightful property offers the perfect blend of period character and modern living, all within a tranquil yet accessible setting.

Accessed via a private driveway that begins on the Lewes Road, the entrance to this large, detached house is both impressive and secluded/ The electric timber gates open onto a generous, sweeping gravel driveway, offering ample parking and leading you to the property. To the right, a beautifully maintained lawned front garden creates an inviting first impression, enhancing the home's curb appeal. The drive gracefully approaches the house and its adjoining garaging, ensuring both privacy and convenience in a tranquil, rural setting.

The downstairs accommodation of this charming Arts and Crafts-style home offers a perfect blend of character and modern living. As you enter through the large entrance hall, you're welcomed by stunning hardwood flooring that flows through much of the ground floor. A convenient downstairs cloakroom adds practicality. At the rear of the house, the open-plan living space is a real highlight, acting as both a breakfast room (open-plan to the kitchen) and a family room with multi-fuel log burner. The versatile area benefits from two sets of tri-folding doors that open out to the beautiful rear garden, allowing natural light to flood the space and offering seamless indoor-outdoor living. The fitted kitchen is well-equipped with a sink and drainer, dishwasher and range cooker, making it ideal for family meals and entertaining. A separate sitting room with an open fireplace provides a more intimate space to relax. The downstairs space has been extended to include a spacious dining room, perfect for formal dining, as well as a utility room that adds further convenience. This home has been thoughtfully designed to offer both functional living areas and sense of warmth and style.

The upstairs accommodation offers a spacious and flexible layout, with four bedrooms, three generously sized doubles and a single. Bedrooms one and two are further enhanced by washing facilities, offering added convenience and all bedrooms benefit from fitted wardrobes. The landing area boasts a feature window that overlooks the front garden, while the rear-facing bedrooms enjoy stunning views over the expansive garden. The boarded, full-height loft space, complete with power, lighting and a Velux window, provides excellent storage potential or the opportunity to convert into additional living space. Feasibility plans have been drawn up for an en-suite to the master bedroom, offering the potential to enhance the accommodation further.

The stunning one-acre (approx.) garden offers a tranquil and private outdoor haven, beautifully landscaped with a variety of mature trees, vibrant plants and well-established shrubs. The carefully designed garden is perfect for those who appreciate nature's beauty, featuring a spacious garden room away from the main house with power, and internet access, ideal for use as a peaceful retreat, family entertaining or home office. New, high-quality decking provides an excellent space for outdoor dining or relaxation, seamlessly blending with the surrounding greenery. A charming Victorian walled boundary adds to the property's character and privacy, creating a serene atmosphere in this exceptional outdoor space.
