A rare opportunity to acquire this stunning former double Oast house, ideally situated on a private lane within the ever-popular hamlet of Felcourt on the Surrey/West Sussex border between Lingfield Village and East Grinstead Town, and just one mile to Dormans Station.

Externally, the property sits down a private lane within a one acre plot.

The total area of these outbuildings amounts to 1,828sq ft. The front garden contains an orchard with a variety of fruit trees and is bordered by feature trees. The secluded rear garden is mostly laid to lawn with a patio area abutting the rear of the property providing uninterrupted views over the surrounding farmland up to the North Downs and is flanked by a variety of trees, shrubs and flowering plants.
