A beautiful Estate in a wonderful elevated setting with views

Description
This wonderful Country Estate is offered discreetly to the market for the first time in approximately 35 years.

A beautiful Estate in a wonderful elevated setting with views over the Ashdown Forest with its Winnie the Pooh Bridge and tea rooms nearby, 104 acres, cottage, annexe, granary flat, separate office/playroom, significant equestrian facilities including stabling, barns and an indoor arena.

Top Hill Farm is a delight. The main house is generously proportioned, and being un-Listed can be adapted to suit the buyer’s needs (subject to the usual consents).

The property sits up a long private driveway in an excellent slightly elevated position with lovely views to the rear. The house and facilities sit well within the whole, away from neighbours. The accommodation takes advantage of beautiful views to the rear and offers well-proportioned accommodation ideal for family living. The ground floor accommodation radiates from a central entrance hallway and includes a sitting room, drawing room, snug, formal dining room, kitchen breakfast room and a study - all dual aspect rooms. The first floor offers eight bedrooms and three bathrooms, with a fourth en suite bathroom on the second floor.

Outside is the office/playroom. An ideal space to keep work separate from home.

For those with an equine interest, there are excellent facilities including significant stabling, 3,866sqft barn and a recently rebuilt indoor riding arena.

In total the land amounts to about 104 acres, predominantly of fenced paddocks, but with beautiful mature gardens which surround the main house, including a partially walled water garden and a yew-hedge enclosed and private pool area. In the spring the woodlands become home to a sea of bluebells.

The property also provides three further dwellings/accommodations including a two bedroom detached lodge cottage, a granary flat above the garaging and a separate one bedroom annexe.

Garaging for 6 cars.
