West Street, Mayfield

The property forms a large, detached single storey property, nestled within large gardens, in a tucked away, but central location within Mayfield.

The property has recently had some new carpets and decor throughout, plus a new boiler was installed earlier this year. There is still some modernisation that is required, depending on one’s needs and requirements. It is also considered that there is incredible scope to extend into the large roof space, subject to one’s needs and, of course, planning consent.

One enters via the front door into an entrance hall, with parquet flooring, and access to the well-proportioned sitting room, with a curved bay window to the side, and further window to the front, enjoying the best of the views. There is a brick, open fireplace to one wall, and access to the conservatory, which in turn looks out over the front garden, and the views.

Opposite the sitting room is a study/dining room, with a curved bay window to the side, and a wall of fitted cupboards and shelves.

The kitchen/breakfast room is a good sized room, facing the rear garden with a further lobby and door to the rear garden. There is an array of fitted cream cupboards and drawers, with wooden worktops and tile effect flooring. There is space for a dishwasher, cooker and fridge.

The lobby leads into a utility room, with space for further appliances and further cupboards, and cloakroom facilities, including a WC and basin.

A door from the kitchen area leads into the second bedroom, complete with a large, fitted wardrobe, and an internal window to the conservatory.

A further hallway leads through the centre of the building, providing access to the two other double bedrooms, and the bathroom. Bedroom one faces the front, with a door to a wardrobe, whilst the third bedroom faces the rear. The bathroom is a good size, comprising a bath, separate shower unit, WC, basin, tiled walls and floor, heated towel rail and a window to rear.

There is a large loft space, currently housing the boiler, and offering scope for further accommodation, subject to the necessary consents.

Outside, the property provides a tarmac driveway rising from West Street to the rear of the property where it meets the garage and parking area. The garage is a good size, with an electric roller door, windows to side, and ample space for storage and tools.

The driveway is hedged to one side, and banked to the other, covered in mature shrubs and trees with alower area of lawn at the front. It is felt that this area could easily provide further parking, and with carefultrimming of the bushes and trees, could also open up the views more to the house.

The rear garden enjoys a flat area of lawn, with a further tarmac area providing a patio behind the kitchen. A large, mature magnolia features prominently, and a gentle sloped pathway to the left of the lawn leads one up to an additional area featuring lawn surrounded by ample trees and shrubs. Further steps provide access to an elongated lawn encompassed with trees.

The property is situated off West Street, approximately 150 yards from the 16th Century beauty of Mayfield High Street. Facilities in the village include a small supermarket with post office, butcher, baker, pharmacy, florist, greengrocers and deli as well as GP surgery, dentist and hairdressers.  There are also a couple of cafes and period Inns, including the renowned Middle House Hotel.

There are pretty churches of various denominations, a flourishing primary school and the well-regarded Mayfield School secondary school. For more comprehensive facilities Tunbridge Wells is 9 miles to the north. Railway stations can be found at Wadhurst (5 miles), Crowborough (6 miles), and Tunbridge Wells. These provide a fast and regular service to London Charing Cross, London Bridge and Cannon Street.  There is a regular bus service to Tunbridge Wells and Eastbourne.

The area provides an excellent selection of both state and private schools. Nearby leisure facilities include tennis, bowls, numerous golf clubs, sailing on Bewl Water and at the coast. The area is criss-crossed with many beautiful walks through the Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.
