Mabbs Hill Oast, Ticehurst

Occupying an idyllic rural setting in the heart of the High Weald, Mabbs Hill Oast is an exceptional former oast house that has been sympathetically and comprehensively renovated to create a truly remarkable family home.
Approached via a private driveway, the property enjoys complete privacy, beautifully landscaped gardens and an outstanding range of leisure facilities, all set within approximately 1.2 acres of garden and an adjoining 13-acre wildlife field with spectacular views over the surrounding area. Extending to just under 3,000 sq. ft, the beautifully presented accommodation perfectly combines period charm with versatile contemporary living. The front entrance hall incorporates a practical utility room and cloak cupboard.
At the heart of the home is a superb open-plan kitchen and breakfast room fitted with quality carpentry and generous workspace. This flows effortlessly into the sitting room, with log burner, providing an ideal social space for family and friends. A spectacular vaulted garden room enjoys wonderful views across the gardens, flooding the room with natural light. This room is particularly striking with exceptional proportions creating another living space and a wonderful reception/entertaining area. The roundel has been beautifully converted into an impressive dining space. This opens into a long double room which the current owners have converted into a music room and a generous home office/studio area, demonstrating its remarkable versatility and abundance of space.
The bedroom accommodation is equally impressive. The principal suite occupies the upper floor of the property and comprises a spacious bedroom, dressing room and luxurious en suite bathroom. Three further double bedrooms are situated on the ground floor, one benefits with an en suite shower room. There is also a beautifully appointed family spa-bathroom.
Outside, the beautifully landscaped gardens provide an exceptional setting, with sweeping lawns, mature trees, ornamental planting and terraces surrounding a newly lined heated outdoor swimming pool and tennis court. Former stables, a detached double garage, extensive parking and a private driveway complete the grounds, which extend to approximately 14 acres, offering outstanding privacy and space.
Despite its peaceful rural setting, Mabbs Hill Oast is well placed for the villages of Stonegate, Wadhurst and Ticehurst, with more extensive shopping and leisure facilities in Tunbridge Wells. Stonegate and Wadhurst stations provide regular services to London Charing Cross and Cannon Street, whilst the A21 offers easy access to the M25, Gatwick Airport and the south coast.
The area is renowned for its excellent selection of schools, including Saint Ronan’s, Marlborough House Vinehall, Bedes, Mayfield and Benenden, together with well-regarded local state schools and grammar schools in Tunbridge Wells. Bewl Water, Bedgebury Pinetum and the surrounding High Weald countryside provide exceptional opportunities for walking, cycling, sailing and other outdoor pursuits.
