. We are delighted to offer this unique and individual detached residence believed to date in part from the 16th Century (to be confirmed) with later additions and extensions standing in a fabulous semi rural setting of approximately one acre (to be verified) adjoining open fields to the rear. The village of Newick is just over a mile away offering amenity shops, post office, public houses and restaurants and there are excellent commuter links from Haywards Heath approximately 6 miles distance. The larger town of Uckfield is also a short drive away with its two supermarkets, range of shopping facilities and commuter rail links.

. The unusual, flexible and adaptable accommodation has currently been split to form a completely self contained (non commercial) annexe together with the main section of the house which could easily be reinstated to one large dwelling at minimal cost, if required. The current layout comprises in the main section two first floor double bedrooms and bathroom/WC, and on the ground floor a substantial kitchen, dining room, sitting room and useful range of adjoining rooms. The annexe comprises two bedrooms, sitting room, kitchen and shower room/WC and has its own enclosed large section of garden.

. The current owner has made significant improvements to the property during the past five years and these include a refitted gas fired central heating system throughout the property, installation of a bio-pure Klargester septic tank, reroofing of the double garage and installation of cavity wall and loft insulation. Other improvements include reconfiguring and refitting the kitchen with solid work tops and tiled flooring, creation of a superb vaulted dining room area and installation of a large feature pond to the central lawned area. In addition planning permission has been granted for an additional first floor master bedroom suite incorporating ensuite and dressing area facilities.

. Specific features include in the older part of the property a delightful character sitting room of over 23' in length into recess which incorporates an inglenook fireplace with fitted woodl burning stove and wealth of exposed timbers, two first floor double bedrooms again with a wealth of exposed timbers, annexe sitting room with exposed timers and wood burning stove and refitted kitchen and shower room in the annexe section.

. The property has a useful range of adjoining rooms and buildings which include a utility/boot room, adjoining garden room, large workshop and double garage with a playroom/den over. In our opinion, some or part of these buildings could easily be converted into habitable living accommodation thereby substantially increasing the accommodation on offer (subject to the usual planning applications and consents). A particular feature of the property are the gardens and grounds amounted to approximately one acre which comprise a sweeping tarmac driveway with parking for numerous vehicles, large expanses of lawns to three sides, the rear enjoying a cottage style garden with feature seating areas and decking providing excellent seclusion from all angles and flanking open fields beyond. We feel only an internal viewing of this delightful character home will not only convey all the character features and flexibility of accommodation but also its superb semi rural location and ongoing potential.

DIRECTIONAL NOTE: From our office in Uckfield High Street proceed in a northerly direction turning left at the traffic lights at Church Street and proceeding out of town through Piltdown until reaching the A272. Turn left onto the A272 and proceed into the village of Newick. Pass the little parade of shops on your right hand side and turn right into Newick Hill. Proceed for approximately half a mile taking a sharp left hand bend with Mill Lane on your right hand side and the property will be found hundred yards or so further along on the left hand side.
