** OPEN DAY 28TH JUNE 2025 - strictly by appointment only ** A remarkable example of a 16th-century timber-framed Grade II Listed Wealden Hall House, situated on a generous plot of nearly half an acre and bordered by 700 acres of protected Woodland Trust land. The façade features a brick lower level with a cream and brown jettied first floor, and a Kent peg-tiled roof, with a fabulous historic oak front door.
A sweeping driveway leads to a generous gated parking area and a garage. Step inside the entrance porch and take in the exquisite historical details and original beamed ceilings throughout. The grand sitting room features an inglenook fireplace with a log burner, a central beam, and herringbone parquet flooring extending across much of the ground floor. The property includes a family room with charming old beams and a utility/cloakroom leading to the gardens. The country-style kitchen/dining room has been beautifully updated with an Aga cooker and Shaker-style cabinets. There’s also a cellar for wine storage.
Upstairs, the landing leads to four double bedrooms and one single, all with stunning exposed beams, plus two family bathrooms, including one with a stunning diagonal oak brace. The second floor contains a further double room with a vaulted ceiling, eaves storage, and an en-suite bathroom featuring a roll-top bath.
Outside, a separate pitched roof brick building with power supply is perfect for an office or studio. The large rear lawn is surrounded by established trees, with a path to the lane, a bbq house, a greenhouse, and various fruit trees. Tenure: Freehold. EPC Exempt. Council Tax Band: G.
