Rainbows End Cottage

Freeman Forman are delighted to present this charming, characterful three bedroom semi-detached house with equestrian facility, located in an enviably peaceful location of an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty just 2½ miles from both the outskirts of Tunbridge Wells and Eridge Station. There are great rural views across the valley to the Spa Valley Steam Railway and into Kent. The property is in the catchment area for St Thomas’ Primary School in Groombridge, and there is excellent local secondary education both in the private and state sector, including Grammar schools in Tunbridge Wells. Rainbow's End benefits from fibre optic to the property, a comprehensive range of outbuildings, stables and almost one acre (tbv) of paddocks and gardens. Many varied and delightful walks are possible from the cottage including into Broadwater Warren Nature Reserve, to Groombridge Place and the Tunbridge Wells Circular. The locality is abundant in wildlife with deer frequently seen.

Accommodation: The property offers accommodation arranged over two floors. The ground floor consists of an entrance hall with plentiful room for boots and coats, sitting room with a fireplace, study/fourth bedroom, dining room with feature open fireplace, kitchen with Rayburn and a utility room. An oak staircase rises from the entrance hall to the first floor landing which gives access to three bedrooms, bathroom and WC. The bedrooms, two with dual aspect, benefit from stunning views over woodland and fields. There was previously planning permission granted for a 2 storey gable end extension which has since lapsed.

Outside: The property offers abundant outside space with a large driveway located at the front of the property which allows for plenty of off-road parking, 2 paddocks and pretty gardens with a cherry tree and lots of privacy and seclusion. There is a wide range of outbuildings which include a single garage with workshop leading to a stable block currently used as offices and with potential for conversion to a granny annex, a tack room, a hay barn/garden store and a further stable block of 3 loose boxes and yard. The owners currently rent an additional 1.6 acre (tbv) field adjacent to the property from Southern Water and would wish to transfer this agreement to the new owner with their permission. There is an extensive vegetable plot with greenhouse at the rear.
