Little Headfoldswood is a beautifully appointed country house nestled in a little over 10 acres of well-kept gardens, paddocks and woodland. With origins dating back to Tudor times and with 17th century and later additions, the property has been impeccably renovated, extended and updated by our clients over the years, and retains an abundance of character and charm throughout.
The main house sits centrally in the grounds and so enjoys views over its own land from all aspects and all principal rooms are south facing. The exterior architecture is a wonderful combination of styles and includes old brick together with elegant stonework with half-timbered woodwork typical of the Tudor times, all under a clay-tiled roof. The rooms are all decorated in a classic colour scheme with leaded glass windows in the older parts, a reflection of the age and character of the house. The bespoke Shaker style kitchen is open plan to the breakfast/family room which has a woodburning stove, solid wooden flooring and three sets of French doors lead onto the south facing terraces; opening up the beautiful views and allowing the space to be flooded with light. Upstairs, the first floor is accessed via two staircases, with the main staircase leading to a sizeable landing, and the generously sized principal bedroom which is double aspect and overlooks the formal gardens.
The separate cottage, which is built of brick and equally full of character and charm, has recently been fully renovated and is tucked away in the garden. Suitable for a range of uses such as office, studio space, pool house or ancillary accommodation, the cottage has an open-plan living space with beautiful, vaulted ceiling with original beams, a woodburning stove, separate kitchen and a shower room.
Outside, Little Headfoldswood is approached through a five-bar gate onto a large gravel drive and parking area. From here, a charming garden path edged by mature flower beds leads to the front door. The main garden, which extends to about 4.5 acres, is mainly laid to lawn and is cleverly divided into different spaces with well-tended hedging and paths. Perfectly situated to the south of the house is the swimming pool with a paved surround, perfect for summertime entertaining. There is a greenhouse and a range of mature flower beds, shrubs and trees throughout the garden and a magnificent Yew tree being as old as the original parts of the house. Next to the drive is the Sussex Barn, listed Grade II, which is constructed of timber and contains an open barn, store and two boxes. Furthermore, the property has about 1.5 acres of mature woodland.
For the equestrian, paddocks extend to approximately 4.5 acres and have the benefit of a field shelter and riding straight from the door on to a local bridlepath, which is located at the bottom of the fields. There is a 20m x 40m sand school with drainage and silica sand/rubber surface.
