Wartling, HAILSHAM, BN27

This wonderful detached period barn conversion stands in a slightly elevated location up a long private driveway surrounded by approximately 12 acres with a small area of copse, a lily pond and pasture grazing.  The property was converted in 1989 and whilst being beautifully maintained, now requires general modernisation.  The accommodation is approached through double doors to an impressive vaulted dining hall with galleried landing above.  There are two principle reception rooms, one with a wood burning stove, a kitchen and a large home/office.  The ground floor also has two bedrooms, both with an en-suite and to the first first are two additional bedrooms.  All the rooms enjoy fabulous views over the garden to the adjoining countryside.  The property stands slightly elevated at the end of a long driveway and the barn sits amidst established formal gardens that provide areas of lawn and many paved patios, one with a Summerhouse.  There is a detached workshop/store as well as a double garage and separate double car barn with storage above.  The property is bound by a stream which runs to an attractive lily pond with a bridge that connects to a 2 acre paddock and into an attractive deciduous copse.  There is also a large area of additional pasture and grazing that wraps around the property and is thought to be ideal for those with equestrian interests (approximately 12 acres).

NOTES:

1.  A footpath crosses the main field and also cuts through the 2 acre field.  

2.  The property is served by a private drainage system.
