There’s no better place for morning coffee taking in panoramic vistas. Built in wooden cupboards and wardrobes negate the need for additional furniture in this fabulous space. A traditional ensuite bathroom with twin basins, freestanding bath, separate shower and terracotta tiled floor completes the scene. The master bedroom has a door into an office – also with lovely views – which could be used as a dressing room or additional bedroom. Similarly, a second office is big enough to be a nursery or bedroom for when extra guests come to stay. Off the main galleried landing are five further double bedrooms, one of which is ensuite with basin, freestanding bath, separate shower and terracotta tiles. All have wonderful views, original features and most have fitted cupboards. A large family bathroom and extensive storage areas complete the upstairs. A pretty ground floor annexe with its own front door can provide accommodation for a nanny, elderly relative or a home-based business while two offices on the first floor make working from home a breeze. Grounds & gardens Moving outside, sweeping lawns surround the house with magnificent mature trees and shrubs (and plenty of parking). An original air-raid shelter doubles up as wine cellar or den. Roses jostle for space in established flowerbeds with mature shrubs, fox gloves and wild strawberries. The south facing terrace immediately outside the house is complemented by an outdoor cooking area, pizza oven and barbeque. Banked terraces, stone walls and stone steps lead to a lawn suitable for croquet, badminton or football. An orchard beyond is home to fruit trees, a firepit and a couple of beehives. A newly refurbished swimming pool is bordered by classical stone paving and located next to a state-of-the-art tennis court – not far to go for a refreshing dip after a competitive game. In this area you’ll find a pool house, two good-sized storage sheds (one new) and a woodstore within woodland where the vendor previously kept chicken, ducks and pigs. What the owners say: “This has been a truly special family home for the past 12 years but it is time to downsize. We have thoroughly enjoyed updating and extending the house within the remit of the arts and crafts period so looking to influences such as William Morris. It is a wonderful home for making memories, enjoying peace and tranquillity and entertaining.” The Ashdown Forest can be accessed via public footbath near the top of the drive or from the meadow to the south of the property by arrangement with neighbours. It offers extensive walks, trails, bike rides and horse riding and don’t miss the opportunity to visit Pooh Sticks Bridge (a 15 minute walk from the house) and other well-known AA Milne landmarks while, for a change of scene, it is only about 20 minutes to the South Downs. East Tillingham is within walking distance of two country pubs – The Gallipot Inn and The Hatch – so it is easy to dip into village life from East Tillingham while the quintessential village of Hartfield offers the well-known Pooh Corner tearoom, shop, butcher, GP surgery, pub, tennis courts, cricket club, church, village hall and primary school. Forest Row is not far away and includes an array of organic cafes, independent shops and boutiques, restaurants, pubs, farmers market and excellent schools. This large and friendly village also has a supermarket, library, post office, GP surgery, 24-hour veterinary surgery and a thriving community centre. The world-famous Royal Ashdown Forest Golf Club is located here too, along with a welcoming tennis club. Trains from East Grinstead and Cowden are about 15 minutes away where journey times to London are under an hour and Gatwick is only half an hour away. Supermarkets including Waitrose, Sainsburys, Aldi and Morrisons can be found in nearby Crowborough, East Grinstead and Royal Tunbridge Wells. These larger urban centres offer the high street shopping experience as well as all manner of independent shops and eateries, theatres, cinemas, gyms, leisure centres, train stations, garden centres and recreation grounds. Weekends in the area can be busy should you choose, with village fairs, open gardens, artist studios and fun-run charity events. Annual celebrations and carnivals include Guy Fawkes Night, Christmas markets, pumpkin picking and the Forest Row Festival. Village primary schools in Hartfield and Forest Row are both rated ‘good’ by Ofsted, as is Sackville secondary school in East Grinstead. Beacon Academy in Crowborough is ‘outstanding’. Grammar schools in Royal Tunbridge Wells and Tonbridge are a popular choice for people in the area. The world-famous Michael Hall Steiner Waldorf School is nearby, just on the edge of Forest Row while other independent schools that can be easily accessed comprise Brambletye, Cumnor House, Great Walstead, Ardingly College, Tonbridge School and Mayfield School. Places to visit National Trust properties, historic houses and such like include Standen House & Gardens, Sheffield Park Gardens, Penshurst Place, Hever Castle, and Chartwell. The coast is only 45 minutes by car making a day out by the sea extremely do-able.
