5 bed detached house for sale

Rocks Lane, High Hurstwood, Uckfield TN22

Description

Looking for a family home with real character and room to grow? This one deserves a look.

Originally built in 1890 as part of a local estate, this converted coach house has been completely reimagined since 2006. The result is a rare mix of period charm and modern practicality - a home that works as hard as the family living in it.

A private gravel driveway leads you in, past mature gardens to a house framed by gabled windows and traditional panelling. Step through the oak door into a tiled porch, then into the impressive dining hall. Oak flooring, a coved ceiling, and a soaring galleried landing set the tone. The layout flows naturally between a cosy sitting room, TV room, and study - all connected to the heart of the home.

That heart is the open-plan kitchen and dining space. Recently refurbished and freshly painted in Little Greene's Slaked Lime Mid, it combines hand-painted cabinetry, solid oak worktops, and integrated appliances. French doors open into a light-filled conservatory, perfect for breakfast at the bar or watching the kids on the garden zip wire. A generous utility room adds extra storage.

There's something genuinely unusual here too: A former garage converted into a fully equipped, underfloor-heated gym with its own en suite and private entrance. Use it as an Airbnb guest suite, a self-contained annexe, or a home business space. Alongside a private study and snug, this wing offers real flexibility.

Upstairs, the principal suite is a proper retreat. It has a private balcony over the south-facing lawn, a vaulted dressing room, and a four-piece en suite. Four further double bedrooms offer plenty of space for family or guests, with fitted wardrobes and calm views. A family bathroom and a second en suite complete the floor.

Outside, just over an acre of landscaped grounds awaits. There's a tree swing, a sun-soaked patio, and established planting - ideal for summer gatherings and cosy winter evenings by the inglenook fire.

Set in the picturesque village of High Hurstwood, this home offers rural peace with genuine community. Strong local schools, easy access to London from Buxted station, and Ashdown Forest on your doorstep complete the picture. A characterful, adaptable family home in a setting to match.
