4 bedroom house

Hillend Farm enjoys a semi-rural location on the outskirts of Nutley village, which has a variety of day to day amenities, good access to transport links and close proximity to excellent walking and riding. With its stabling and outside space, the house is well suited to smallholders and equestrians.

The house is built in a Tudor Revival style, with a striking whitewash and timber frame and partially tile-hung front elevations mixed with red brick. Both inside and out the house is well presented, with a wealth of character features including solid wood doors, exposed timber beams, brick fireplaces and wall panelling. Though well maintained, some of the interiors would benefit from cosmetic modernisation for the home to reach its full and considerable potential. There is also further scope to convert the loft space into additional bedroom(s) if desired (subject to obtaining the necessary consents).

The accommodation extends to over 4000 sq ft across three floors, comprising a reception hall open plan to the kitchen, which has an adjoining utility room; a formal dining room; a cloakroom with w.c., a fully-fitted study; and a separate sitting room with inglenook fireplace. On the first floor there is a principal bedroom with en suite bath/shower room and dressing room, a further two en suite bedrooms, a double bedroom and a shower room. On the second floor there is a further bedroom/games room and a useful loft space.
Outside

The house is set within grounds of about 2.5 acres, comprising a private communal brick-paved driveway behind electric gates with allocated parking for many vehicles, lawned gardens bordered by mature shrubs and flowerbeds, a timber stable block with two looseboxes and a tack room; a grass paddock and a patio terrace.

Situation

The property is surrounded by the green open spaces of the Ashdown Forest, while Nutley village has restaurants, a historic church and a local shop. Chelwood Gate is nearby with two notable public houses while further amenities can be found in Haywards Heath, Uckfield and East Grinstead. The area has excellent transport links with mainline rail services from Haywards Heath (10.1 miles) to London Bridge and London Victoria in 42 minutes. The M25 motorway can be accessed via the A23/A22. There are many well-respected and established private schools in the area, including Lewes Old Grammar School, Brighton College, Roedean and Hurstpierpoint College. The local area is beautiful open countryside with many footpaths leading to woodland and areas of outstanding natural beauty, including the South Downs National Park.
