Maresfield Park, Uckfield, TN22

Nestled within the prestigious private estate of Maresfield Park, on the southern edge of the Ashdown Forest, lies a rare opportunity to break ground on a meticulously designed residence.

The site comes with the benefit of full planning permission for a striking 3000 sqft (approx) barn-style residence, and the expansive plot offers the perfect balance of secluded woodland living, and refined neighbourhood character.

This design aesthetic seamlessly marries the rustic heritage of East Sussex with contemporary luxury, featuring soaring ceiling heights, expansive glazing, and an open-plan layout designed to invite the outside in.

Positioned to capture the best of the English countryside, the home is designed with south westerly-facing rear garden. Residents will enjoy golden-hour sunsets and uninterrupted, panoramic views stretching across the rolling heathlands and ancient treelines of the Ashdown Forest. It is a backdrop that changes beautifully with the seasons, offering a sense of scale and serenity that is increasingly hard to find.

While providing a "world away" feel, the plot remains within easy reach of Tunbridge wells / Uckfield’s amenities, top-tier schooling, and mainline rail links to London.

We anticipate the GDV once complete to be approximately £1,425,000 - £1,450,000.
