This unique Grade II listed Yeomans house is situated at the end of a long private driveway on elevated ground with rural views, and viewing is essential to appreciate the characterful features and cluster of outbuildings that include workshops, extensive garaging and a period barn, all thought to offer potential, subject to any necessary consent. Available on the market for the first time in 60 years, the house dates back to the 14th Century with later additions and enjoys accommodation laid out over three floors all requiring improvement. The grounds extend to approximately 14 acres with an established formal garden, 120 fruit trees and a large area that has been left as a wildlife area for many years. In addition the property enjoys a strip of the old west Bexhill railway line that was axed in the 1960s now left to nature with a blanket of trees and a fabulous three arch Victorian bridge. The extensive outbuildings have been used as garaging and workshops, and a studio with a large barn and adjoining stable block, the whole is considered to offer a great deal of potential, subject to any necessary consent.
AGENTS NOTE: We are advised that the property has a septic tank and we believe it is not currently compliant. We are also advised that a footpath crosses part of the land and leads over the top of the original railway bridge back to Swainham Lane. The driveway is owned by Sampsons House but a variety of cottages have a right of way over the initial section of driveway, as do South East Water.
