Uckfield Road, Crowborough

A compact and beautifully positioned rural country estate comprising two detached dwellings, a pretty Victorian single storey building and adjoining Sussex barn along with 32 acres affording spectacular uninterrupted views towards the South Downs. This fine and seldom found estate is offered for sale with no on-going chain and is accessed via a long private driveway flanked by open fields which leads to each of the dwellings and outbuildings, ideal for multi-generational living or separate letting income. Each dwelling is on a separate title and can therefore be sold separately if required. The grounds are mainly positioned to the south and immediately adjoin the property enjoying fabulous views extending to some 32 acres with mature paddocks and light woodland. The main farmhouse is a handsome, part tile-hung detached period family home offering almost 2,800 sq ft of sensitively modernised accommodation arranged over two floors with a welcoming reception hall with exposed wooden flooring and a feature exposed stone fireplace with woodburning stove and useful cloakroom/shower room. It comprises a dual-aspect drawing room with exposed wooden flooring, and a rear-aspect reception room with wooden flooring and a feature exposed stone fireplace with a woodburning stove. A door from here leads to a rear porch. The L-shaped kitchen/dining room is fitted with a range of wall and base units including a breakfast bar, complementary work surfaces and splashbacks, a large Aga, and modern integrated appliances. The dining area features an exposed stone wall, space for a large table, and full-height glazing incorporating French doors to the garden. Stairs rise from the rear reception room to a generous first-floor landing, which incorporates a wooden-floored sitting room. From here, there is access to a principal bedroom with en suite shower room, two further double bedrooms, and a modern family bathroom with both a bath and a separate shower.

The 3 bedroom oast house is equally spacious and boasts light and spacious accommodation extending to 1,690 sq ft with the majority of rooms enjoying some of the finest views in the area, and comprises a large hallway, cloakroom, a roundel kitchen, a garden room and a large open plan, triple aspect sitting/dining room. The first floor offers 3 large double bedrooms and a separate shower room.

Newnham Park Farm also benefits from more than 5,400 sq ft of barns and outbuildings including an L-shaped range accessible from the main driveway, suitable for a variety of uses including conversion to additional accommodation if required (STP).
