A lovely family home in an elevated position with indoor pool, extensive equestrian facilities and spectacular views.
Description
St Giles is a substantial equestrian property which occupies an elevated position with stunning panoramic views, in the historic village of Burwash.
This light and airy, five bedroom family home which boasts ground floor annexe potential, dates from the early 1920's and enjoys well laid out accommodation in excess of 3,800 sq ft.
Reception rooms include a drawing room with wood burning stove, a dining room, a garden room with doors to the gardens, and a family room which is open to the kitchen. Together with the reception hall they offer ideal areas for entertaining.
Off the drawing room is an orangery, with views to three aspects and an Endless heated pool with electric cover.
The kitchen/breakfast room with central island, has a Thornhill range cooker, integral dishwasher and fridge/freezer. Off the kitchen is a utility room/second kitchen, a sitting room, a bedroom/study and en suite shower room. These rooms offer great flexibility and can be shut off from the main house creating a potential annexe if required.
The five first floor bedrooms, all with wardrobe cupboards are served by two bathrooms, one being en suite and a separate WC.
St Giles is accessed via two sets of electric gates which culminate in parking to the front of the house. The gardens comprise a belt of rhododendrons, azaleas and evergreens bordering the lawn to the front. Expansive lawns stretch away from the terrace to rear from where the spectacular views can be savoured. There is a Breeze House with power and light connected, a vegetable garden, greenhouse and summerhouse.
The equestrian facilities lie to the south west and benefit from separate vehicular access via double gates from Spring Lane. There is a hard standing yard with six stables and several store rooms. A track leads down to a horse walker and continues to the all weather outdoor school, the winter paddocks and nine fields beyond.
Location
This popular and pretty village benefits from a range of excellent local amenities including a general store with post office, butchers, florist, several public houses, a highly regarded primary school with an Outstanding Ofsted report, playing fields and medical centre. The area is superb for cycling and walking with a network of footpaths and the National Trust property, Batemans, former home to Rudyard Kipling is very nearby.
