Street End Lane, Broad Oak, Heathfield, East Sussex, TN21

GUIDE PRICE: £1,000,000-£1,250,000

Set within established gardens and grounds, this distinctive detached country home offers an impressive combination of character, generous proportions and considerable potential, enjoying a wonderfully private rural setting with far-reaching views across the surrounding valley.

Approached through private gates and along a sweeping driveway, the house has a particularly appealing sense of arrival.

Internally, the accommodation is both spacious and versatile, with four well-proportioned double bedrooms, each benefiting from its own en suite bathroom.

At the heart of the home is a generous family sitting room, where exposed beams and an impressive inglenook fireplace lend warmth and character.

The substantial kitchen and dining room provides an excellent setting for both relaxed family life and entertaining, while a separate games room offers valuable flexibility and could equally serve as a fifth bedroom, home office, studio or additional reception room.

The gardens and grounds are a particular feature of the property, extending to 1.32 acres and enjoying attractive, far-reaching views across the valley. Together with the property’s private position, they create an appealing sense of space and tranquillity.

A further point of interest is the considerable scope to enhance and develop the existing accommodation. Planning permission is in place under reference WD/2018/0590/F, with work having commenced on a substantial rear extension. Once completed, this has the potential to significantly increase the scale and versatility of the house, whether as part of a larger family residence or, subject to any necessary consents, to provide ancillary accommodation, leisure or working space.

Garaging is equally generous, with a triple garage already constructed, together with the base for an additional double garage which remains to be completed.

The property is situated in Broad Oak, a well connected East Sussex village with a local shop, post office, community centre, gym and bus services. The surrounding countryside offers an extensive network of footpaths and walks, while Heathfield provides a broader range of everyday amenities including supermarkets, independent shops and healthcare facilities.

Heathfield Community College is approximately two miles away, while rail services from Stonegate, Buxted and Crowborough are all within driving distance, providing connections towards London and the wider South East.

Offering privacy, space and character in equal measure, this is a compelling opportunity to acquire a substantial country home with beautiful grounds and exciting scope for further enhancement.
