Wake to birdsong and views over vineyards and open fields from this exceptional ground floor apartment, set within a handsome period country house down a quiet rural lane, yet just a short drive from Battle's mainline station with direct trains to London Charing Cross. Offered chain free, this is downsizing done properly, or the perfect lock up and leave second home, combining the ease of apartment living with genuine rural charm. The apartment forms part of a house dating from 1900, once part of the Bowes Lyon estate and later owned by the 15th Earl of Strathmore and Kinghorne, brother of the Queen Mother, lending real character to daily life here. Converted in 1983, it has its own private front door opening into a striking sitting/dining room, with a second entrance via the elegant communal hall for added flexibility. High ceilings, period architraves and a wood burning stove set the tone in the sitting/dining room, flowing through to a well equipped kitchen with integral appliances, a generous double bedroom and a bathroom, all finished to a standard that lets you move straight in. Outside, mature and beautifully maintained communal gardens are a real draw for morning coffee or evening strolls, with residents parking and a private timber shed or workshop for hobbies, bikes or storage. A share of the freehold and use of a residents guest room add further appeal for those with visiting family or friends. Chain free and ready for a smooth, swift move.
