7 bed detached house for sale

The Walled Garden, Argos Hill, Rotherfield, East Sussex TN6

Set within an impressive walled garden with grand iron gates, this striking seven bedroom home spans over 4661 sq ft and blends contemporary design with local vernacular architecture. Recently enhanced by a brand-new two-storey extension, the property now offers an additional reception room, a subterranean cinema room and a garage, further increasing its versatility and appeal.

The main living space is designed for modern family life with high ceilings, an open fireplace, and full-height retractable glazing that opens directly to the terrace and garden.

The kitchen centres around a large quartz island, with adjoining dining space and utility room. The new extension provides a further reception room, providing flexibility for entertaining or family use, as well as a useful ground floor bedroom.

Across the upper floors are six double bedrooms, all of which have en suites. Generous landings and excellent storage ensure a sense of space and practicality. A separate studio to the front offers additional accommodation or workspace.

Outside, the wide lawn, mature trees, and large terrace create the perfect setting for outdoor living, all within the privacy of the walled garden.

Sustainability has been integral to the design, with reclaimed brickwork, Siberian larch cladding, a hybrid heating system, and excellent insulation ensuring energy efficiency. The hybrid heating system combines an air source heat pump with a conventional gas boiler.
