OAST BUILDING REQUIRING RENOVATION THAT IS DETACHED AND SEPARATE FROM MAIN HOUSE: Has potential to be converted into an annex, holiday letting unit, home office, or even a sperate traded off building plot subject to planning.
DESCRIPTION: A wonderful opportunity to purchase a 9.5 acre smallholding and development project that comprises of a detached three to four bedroomed renovated gothic influenced farmhouse, as well as a further detached Oast building that may have potential to either be converted into an annex, holiday letting unit, home office or even a separate traded off new building plot subject to planning permission.
The property already has a detached new garage building and the 9.5 acres of land predominantly is set behind the main house and Oast building to the south and beyond there are wonderful rural views.
In particular the land widens out further away from the farmhouse and outbuildings to grass paddocks that could lend themselves to equestrian use or even a creation of a fishing lake subject to planning.
The main house which has been renovated, comprises of a reception hall, a cloakroom / shower room, an inner hall, a utility room, a dining room / potential bedroom four, a kitchen, a sitting room, a conservatory, a landing, three further double bedrooms, an ensuite shower room to bedroom one, a family bathroom and a separate first floor cloakroom. Throughout, the renovation, the current owner has had character bespoke oak doors incorporated to compliment the exposed beams and feature fireplaces and other period features.
We feel this 19th century smallholding offers scope for further development, as well as a perfect blank canvas for the creation of a great home for an equestrian enthusiast.
LOCATION: Situated off the road that runs from Heathfield to Tunbridge Wells, the village of Mayfield is also only a short drive away, as are the mainline train stations of Buxted, Stonegate and Wadhurst, making this property ideal for London commuters.
Depending upon educational requirements, there are numerous reputable teaching institutions to choose from, including Mayfield School for Girls, Bede’s, Skippers Hill, Heathfield to name but a few.
Although Heathfield and Mayfield offer good local shopping and leisure facilities, more comprehensive varieties are on offer at Tunbridge Wells.

OUTSIDE: This attractive late 19th century gothic influenced farmhouse which is set within approximately 9.5 acres (to be verified), also has a separate detached Oast house building behind the main farmhouse that could possibly be converted into a residential annex, or even into a separate dwelling that could be replaced and relocated elsewhere on the plot. Therefore, potentially providing some future development opportunity.
There is also a recently constructed garage building, complimented by extensive driveway and parking areas that lead beyond to the circa 9.5 acres of south facing grass paddocks.
The grass paddocks extend a fair way back in a southerly direction and then expand out to a large area that could be landscaped for a fishing lake etc subject to planning.
OAST HOUSE BUILDING: Currently an attractive stone, brick and wooden redundant Oast that is considered in our opinion ideal for possible conversion into an annex, holiday let, home office, or even traded off to create a relocated building plot for the construction of a new separate residential dwelling subject to planning.
