In all about 9.21 acres. ### Long Description This wonderful country house is a quintessentially Georgian farmhouse with evidence of a much earlier Medieval Sussex Hall House and old smuggling associations in common with many homes accessible to the coast. This substantial farmhouse is built of brick, part tile hung, and colour washed elevations beneath a Kent peg tile roof and benefits from several very handsome rooms with high ceilings, deep skirting boards, original window shutters and period details including antique fireplace surrounds. The focal point is a stunning Georgian staircase winding to the first-floor gallery above. Tall sash windows are in plentiful supply throughout the house flooding the interior with light. At the back of the house is a large breakfast room in the style of an orangery with arched windows opening to the garden and swimming pool. Several smaller yet useful rooms include a snug/library, office and laundry. The farmhouse kitchen features both an “Aga” and a “Sandyford” range. On the first floor, an impressive galleried landing provides access to three wonderful bedrooms en-suite and part of the first floor is annexed and accessible from the back stairs, having two further bedrooms and a bathroom. On the second floor there are three attic bedrooms, formerly servants’ quarters. Gardens and Grounds The house is surrounded by its own gardens including a swimming pool (unheated), extensive lawns, mixed beds, a pergola draped with a white Wisteria, pretty vegetable and fruit gardens with raised beds, a part walled garden with Crescentia tree and a small arboretum of mixed species. Adjacent is a Coach House and lean-to used for garaging. Outside of the gardens there are two paddocks and a large field which could be used for equestrian purposes. Nearby stable buildings could be acquired by separate negotiation. The property is situated in a stunning area amidst most attractive farmland on the edge of the village and approached via a long farm driveway becoming private as it sweeps around one of the paddocks towards the house. Beckley is a small and quaint village in the East Sussex countryside known for its rural charm and friendly community. It has a primary school, a village hall, and a local pub. Wider facilities are available in the nearby village of Northiam along with the renowned Great Dixter House & Gardens. Still more amenities in the historic towns of Tenterden, Hawkhurst and Rye, whilst the coastal town of Hastings is also accessible. Services Oil fired central heating (Aga), Mains water via a private supply pipe, back-up generator, private drainage to Septic tank, this currently serves neighbouring properties in addition and so a new private drainage system will need to be installed by the purchaser within two years.
