The setting of this period farm is very appealing with breathtaking views over your land and beyond, which makes it ideal for equestrian use or for anyone looking for a peaceful retreat -- Sarah Holgate, Associate Director.

#TheGardenOfEngland An attractive, fully renovated, Grade II Listed farmhouse with generous accommodation over 3 floors including 5 bedrooms, 2 attic rooms, 3 bath/shower rooms, 3 reception rooms, 4 acres of paddock, ¾ acre side gardens, stables, hay store and a useful large barn.

Located in a semi-rural position, within the High Weald National Landscape/Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. Magnificent far reaching views and excellent for equestrian/riding out.

Located in an attractive semi rural location about 0.7 miles from Beckley village, down a quiet country ‘no through’ lane.

Beckley is a small quaint village in East Sussex, known for its rural charm and friendly community. It has a primary school, a village hall, and a local pub, serving as key amenities for residents.

There is easy access to Tenterden and Sandhurst to the north and Rye and Hastings to the south east and south.

A character Grade II Listed property set in wonderful gardens with superb countryside views.

The property has been extensively and tastefully refurbished throughout by the current owners creating a traditional family home with hues of farrow and ball paintwork, feature beamed walls and ceilings, feature fireplaces and some lovely original flooring.

For equestrian people, the 4 acre paddocks that lie opposite the property can be seen from the front windows with far reaching views beyond.

There are several outbuildings and potential for an annexe or a separate income (subject to the necessary planning consents). The house is set over 3 floors.

On the ground floor, there is an entrance hall with stairs to the first floor, a sitting room with feature brick fireplace and wood burning stove, a generous dining room, perfect for entertaining, with uncovered brick fireplace and solid fuel burner.

From the dining room there is a rear lobby, a storage/coats cupboard, a w/c and rear porch.

There is a further reception room which the vendors use as a snug, complete with beamed ceiling and wood burning stove.

To the other side is the new kitchen/breakfast room with range of painted Shaker style units with wood worksurfaces over, butler sink, island/breakfast bar, Rangemaster oven and a good size pantry/utility room with space/plumbing for a washing machine.

On the first floor, there are some beautiful beams along the landing area and easy steps to the master suite which was built over the garage.

This is a very spacious and light room with some spectacular commanding views over the paddocks and beyond, and a luxury ensuite shower room.

There are 4 further bedrooms including a guest bedroom with ensuite shower room and 3 of the bedrooms benefiting from built in storage cupboards/wardrobes.

There is also a family bathroom, an airing cupboard and stairs to the second floor.

This has two large attic rooms which would have been servants quarters, and offer potential bedrooms/office space or hobby rooms. They both have built in storage cupboards.

Gardens/Outside Paddocks Directly opposite the house lies 4 acres of paddocks, currently used for horse grazing, split into 4 fields.

There are 3 stables to one side, a large hay store and an outdoor entertaining area. There is potential to put in a school here (subject to the necessary permissions).

There is a pond with fish in the far corner, with a duck house. The pond serves as a wildlife haven as does the land. The vendors have enjoyed seeing 12 baby ducks here this year and moorhens.

As you would expect, there are big night skies with no light pollution. We understand there are no footpaths across the vendors land or paddocks.

Recently, the vendors purchase the land to the east of the property which extends to about 0.75 of an acre and consists of mature trees, a productive vegetable plot, and a large barn with attached covered store.

This has potential to be converted into an annexe (subject to the necessary planning consents). The field also lends itself to glamping or a quiet retreat.

There is a double garage attached to the property which also has potential to be incorporated within the house if required.

The remainder of gardens wrap around the property and are mostly laid to lawn with mature planting, new patio area, pergola, hot tub and shed.

There are a variety of fruit trees and a pretty Mimosa tree (with bright yellow flowers). No old farmhouse would be complete without an original well!

Footpaths We understand there are no footpaths across the vendors land or paddocks. Additional information: Services: Mains water and electricity. Oil fired central heating.

Private drainage (septic tank). Wood burning stoves and solid fuel burner.
