5 bed detached house for sale

Greenwoods Lane, Heathfield TN21

Description

One of the finest equestrian estates in the South East - professional yard, twenty-one acres, and a beautifully appointed five-bedroom farmhouse. A rare opportunity at this price point.
For the serious equestrian, this is exceptional. A five-box stable yard - fully alarmed with CCTV and complete with solarium, wash bay, feed room and secure tack rooms - sits at the heart of an estate designed without compromise. A horse walker, a 60x20 metre sand and carpet arena, fenced paddocks with water, winter turnout pens with field shelters, and dedicated access for a 26-tonne horse lorry ensure that every aspect of professional equestrian management has been considered. Bridleway and woodland hacking begins at the gate. Brightling Gallops and Cross Country course is 5.5 miles away. Hickstead Showground is under 28 miles distant.

To find a yard of this specification, at this price, in East Sussex, is genuinely rare.

The principal residence is a substantial, characterful twentieth-century detached farmhouse of approximately 3,001 sq ft - warm, generous and beautifully kept. A Shaker-style kitchen with slate worktops and a two-oven Aga anchors the home, opening through to a light-filled conservatory with wood burner and French doors to the garden. A double-aspect drawing room with log burner, a snug, a study and a grand dining room with French doors to the terrace complete a ground floor designed equally for family life and gracious entertaining. Five bedrooms, each with views across the paddocks, woodland or gardens, are served by three well-appointed bathrooms. The principal suite benefits from a private dressing room.

Beyond the main house, a self-contained Grooms Cottage offers independent accommodation for staff, extended family or guests - with a generous double bedroom, open plan kitchen and living area, and bathroom. A woodland cabin, connected to water and electricity and set amongst mature trees and springtime bluebells, offers further potential as a studio, retreat or holiday let.

Twenty-one acres of paddocks, mature woodland and landscaped gardens frame the estate, with the property's own woodland connecting directly to the local bridleway network. A turning-circle driveway, electric gated entrance, brick-edged paved patio and a range of practical outbuildings complete a holding that is as practical as it is beautiful.

Heathfield town centre is three miles away. Stonegate station is eight miles distant - London Bridge direct in one hour four minutes. Gatwick Airport is one hour six minutes by road. Skippers Hill Preparatory School is 7.5 miles away; Bede's Senior School 11.5 miles.

At guide price £2,400,000, this estate offers a level of equestrian facility, acreage and residential quality that is exceptionally difficult to find elsewhere in the region.
