We've tightened what earns a Pursue. A home now needs a published valuation, a strategy that still makes money after real running costs and lender stress tests, and no listing problems that would stop a mortgage. You'll see fewer Pursues, and each one has been checked harder.

About
A unique one-bedroom barn conversion occupying a truly idyllic position within Ashdown Forest, tucked away along a quiet country lane and enjoying views across a lake to the front.
Surrounded by open countryside and nature, this secluded setting offers exceptional peace and privacy whilst remaining just a 10-minute drive from the market town of Uckfield and its range of amenities.
Originally an open-fronted pig barn dating back approximately 200 years, the property was converted around 15 years ago and successfully operated as a holiday let, generating up to £950 per week during peak season.
The property was subsequently granted residential use approximately six years ago. Benefits include electric heating and a private eco-digester sewage system.
Accessed via a gated entrance, the property provides ample off-road parking.
Internally, the accommodation comprises a well-equipped kitchen, a welcoming living area featuring a wood-burning stove and doors opening to the front, a generous double bedroom, and a shower room which can be accessed from both the bedroom and the main living space.
There is also a useful loft area providing additional storage. Outside, the property enjoys a peaceful and natural setting.
To the rear is a decked area that would benefit from updating or replacement, leading to an elevated seating deck overlooking a picturesque stream.
To the front, there is a timber storage shed together with a versatile brick-built outbuilding benefiting from power, water and lighting, ideal for a variety of alternative uses.
In addition to its existing charm and character, the property offers exciting scope for enlargement and further enhancement, subject to the necessary planning consents, making it an appealing proposition for those seeking a countryside home with future potential.
Whether as a permanent residence, weekend retreat, holiday let investment, or development opportunity, this rare barn conversion presents a unique chance to acquire a character property in one of Sussex's most sought-after rural locations.
