Grove Hill, Hellingly, Hailsham

Down a quiet lane in the Wealden countryside, two acres of woodland and orchard unfold around this home, a private retreat with rural views from almost every window.

This 1930s house was reimagined through an architect-led renovation in 2024/25, doubling in size to 2,556 sq ft while holding onto its original character. For families leaving London, or those returning to the UK after years abroad, it offers exactly that shift in pace, with Polegate station a short drive away and trains reaching Brighton in under 30 minutes and London Victoria in around an hour and twenty.

A dual-aspect hallway with heated Karndean flooring leads to a snug warmed by a wood burner, and on to a triple-aspect kitchen and living space, the true heart of the home, filled with light from French doors on two sides and fitted with Masterclass Kensington cabinetry, Silestone worktops and new Bosch and Neff appliances. A pantry, boot room, utility and powder room complete the ground floor.

Upstairs, four double bedrooms look out over the surrounding countryside. The principal suite has its own dressing room and a new en suite with a rainfall shower; the remaining three share a family shower room and separate WC.

Outside is where the house comes into its own. A new patio and deck trace its length, looking over gardens, orchard, vegetable garden, summer house and fire pit, all bordered by bluebell woodland home to deer, badgers and birdlife, with room still for a pool, chicken coops or a paddock.

A heated, wired studio adds flexibility as a home office, creative space or self-contained annexe. A carport for two, a garage and further parking sit behind electric gates.

Hellingly offers Hailsham's shops and market close by, the Cuckoo Trail on the doorstep, and Eastbourne and the South Downs within twenty minutes, with direct trains to London and Brighton.
