5 bed detached house for sale

Blacklands Crescent, Forest Row RH18

Occupying A totally secluded tucked away


Location in the heart of forest row.

Surrounded by nature, is an individual and highly distinctive detached ranch style home with four bedrooms and a self-contained one-bed annexe, all sitting in the middle of a third of an acre rewilded plot.

Flooded with natural light, the property has been extended and improved during the current seller’s long ownership and it now forms a unique and creative family home with many features including an exceptionally spacious and bright family room/kitchen diner with double-vaulted ceiling, skylights and galleried landing.

The accommodation is arranged over two floors. The ground floor of the property has a good-sized entrance hall leading to the splendid family room/kitchen hosting a large woodburner with internal flue, and bi-folding hardwood triple doors which open into the rear garden. The kitchen area is well fitted with worktops, appliances and an island breakfast bar.

As well as the annexe, the rest of the downstairs consists of a ground floor single bedroom, shower room and a dining room/study.

Stairs lead to the galleried landing overlooking the large family room. On this level there is a bathroom and three bright double bedrooms (2 with Juliet balconies) and all with countryside views.

The self-contained annexe consists of a double bedroom, shower room and kitchen/living room. It could be rented, used for generational living or incorporated into the main house, which is still accessible via an internal door.

Outside there is a good-sized mature front garden, wood store, hand-built shed and driveway parking for a number of cars.

The rear garden is a sun trap with an open lawned area, decking and sheds, adjoining open fields which ultimately border the Forest Way Country Park.

The gardens both front and rear have a wealth of mature shrubs and trees (including apple, pear, fig and sloe) which offer great privacy. Over the years, the garden has welcomed back a wide range of almost forgotten wildlife, including the rare-spotted woodpecker!

Directions From Forest Row centre: Take the B2110 (Hartfield Road) for one quarter of a mile and turn left in Blacklands Crescent, and left again into the first driveway where the house will be seen at the end on the right.
