5 bed detached house for sale

Yew Tree Lane, Rotherfield TN6

Occupying a privileged semi-rural position surrounded by wonderful countryside and with views of the same, this individual 1920s detached house is full of charm and wonderful features and needs to be visited in person to be fully appreciated.

Presented and styled well throughout with spacious and versatile living accommodation, the property is approached via a gravel driveway leading to the porch and entrance hall which, with stairs rising to a galleried landing, provides an excellent first impression. The kitchen/breakfast /family room is a superb space, extending to nearly 30ft with a large roof lantern, windows and bi-folding doors filling the area with light. The kitchen is beautifully fitted with extensive floor and wall mounted units under quartz worksurfaces, a range of integrated appliances and an excellent walk in larder. There is an adjacent utility room which leads to the garage and the dining area is part-open to a lovely sitting room/snug. To the front of the house is a triple aspect drawing room and good size dining room – both with large windows overlooking the secluded front gardens.

Upstairs, there are four bedrooms and a study/5th bedroom, all with lovely outlooks. The principal bedroom is excellent with built in wardrobes, window with views to the front and a private bathroom with bath and shower. The guest bedroom also has an en suite shower room whist the remaining are well served by the family bathroom. The fourth bedroom and study are interconnected and could be utilised in a number of ways with the current study enjoying really lovely views over the gardens.

Outside

To the rear, the garden is excellent and extends to over 300ft with a patio area adjoining the house providing a fine spot to sit, dine and entertain.

Predominantly lawn with established plants, shrubs and trees – many of which are fruit-bearing, there is also an attractive summer house with power and lighting, a large pond with waterfall, greenhouse, raised deck with pergola and vegetable garden. There are lovely countryside views from the rear looking back towards the house and in all the plot extends to 1.33 acres.

Situation

Occupying an enviable tucked-away semi-rural position just over a mile (by car) from the centre of Rotherfield and with some glorious footpaths and bridleways on the doorstep this property forms part of a Victorian farm enclave which was converted to four dwellings some time ago. The Cuckoo Line Stores - a well-supported local shop is at the end of Yew Tree Lane, about 500m away and there are further shops and pubs within the village itself along with a highly regarded primary school.

More comprehensive shopping and train stations can be found in Crowborough (4 miles) and Tunbridge Wells (7.5 miles) and the area is very well served with schools for boys and girls of all ages.
