Piccadilly Lane, Mayfield, East Sussex

This spacious 1930s detached property is immediately available with no forward chain and nestles in the midst of about four acres of grounds, surrounded by stunning countryside in the High Weald ANOB. There is a vast annex and even lapsed planning to extend the property further that could probably be reinstated or amended, so this house would be ideal as a multi-generational home. A driveway leads to a parking area bordered by a front garden, the double garage, the front door to the annex and the main front door that opens into the hallway with the primary staircase to the first floor. There is a triple aspect living room with wood flooring and French doors to the rear garden, a colourful dining room and a study with fitted cabinets and shelving as well as the large dual aspect kitchen/breakfast room with flat fronted units housing various built in appliances and space for a table and chairs. This has a door to the garden, the utility room leading to a cloakroom and the only internal door to the annex.

The outer door to the annex leads into a hallway with access to a cloakroom, a secondary staircase and double doors to the spacious dual aspect living room with fitted cabinets and shelving, French doors to the garden and space for a dining table and chairs. There are double doors to a light and bright study or third double bedroom as it includes an ensuite bathroom. The annex kitchen/breakfast room features wood fronted units with stand-alone appliances.

On the first floor of the main house there is a galleried landing with an airing cupboard, a family shower room and four double bedrooms with rural views including three with dual aspect, one has fitted wardrobes and another includes an ensuite bathroom and French doors to a balcony that needs replacing or repairing. The annex first floor has two triple aspect double bedrooms with delightful views served by a central bathroom.

Outside there is a patio area for al fresco dining, large swathes of lawn bordered by impressive trees and shrubs, a good sized pond and a copse as well as a large field currently grazed by the neighbouring farmer’s sheep.

What the Owner says:

It was the wonderful countryside location and the peaceful environment that were the important factors when choosing this property plus somewhere for two families to live together but independently. The lapsed planning application to create a two storey extension so, if re-instated, could provide even more flexible accommodation.
