A very pretty 6 bedroom period country house situated in an exceptional location close to Bewl Water, with wonderful far reaching views and gardens and grounds of approximately 5.5 acres.
Situation: The property is situated in a stunning position off a quiet lane close to Bewl Water and the villages of Wadhurst and Ticehurst, in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. The property benefits from a wonderful rural setting, whilst only being 2 ½ miles from Wadhurst, which was named the best place to live in the UK in 2023 by The Times and The Sunday Times. Wadhurst High Street offers an excellent range of shops and services for everyday needs including a Jempson’s Local store and post office, cafés, delicatessen, butcher, pharmacy, bookshop, florist, off licence, public houses, as well as a doctor’s surgery, and dentist. Ticehurst is 3 miles distant and also offers a good range of amenities including a post office, a village store and an award winning public house.
There is an excellent choice of schools in the area, in both the state and private sectors, including Wadhurst Primary, Sacred Heart School and the well-regarded Uplands Community College and Sports Centre in Wadhurst . Other schools in the area include primary schools in Ticehurst, Lamberhurst and Frant and Skippers Hill, The Mead, Rose Hill, Holmewood House, Marlborough House and St Ronan’s prep schools with senior schools including Tonbridge, Mayfield, Claremont and Bede’s.
For the commuter, Wadhurst mainline station is 4 miles distant and provides a regular service to London Charing Cross/Cannon Street in an hour. The A21 is also within easy reach providing a direct link to the M25 (junction 5) and the coast. Gatwick Airport is approximately 40 miles to the west, the Eurotunnel terminal at Folkestone is approximately 45 miles to the east and central London is approximately 50 miles away. The regional centre of Tunbridge Wells is 9 miles distant and provides a comprehensive range of amenities including the Pantiles, cinema complex and theatres.
Bewl Water Reservoir, reputedly the largest area of inland water in the South East, is within walking distance and offers a range of leisure activities and water sports including an Aqua Park, walking and cycling trails, sailing, paddleboarding, rowing and fishing.

The gardens and grounds, which extend to approximately 5.5 acres, are a real feature of the property. The house is approached over a long gravelled driveway leading to a garage and parking area.

Terracing to the rear of the house provides an idyllic setting for al fresco dining and for enjoying the gardens and the views beyond.
