The historic town of Battle with a broad range of shops and restaurants as well as a mainline station (London Bridge/Charing Cross) is about 5 miles whilst the coast at Bexhill-on-Sea and Eastbourne is some 4 and 11 miles respectively. There are several state/private schools within reach including Ninfield Primary School; Claverham Community College and Battle Abbey at Battle; Bede’s at Upper Dicker; Eastbourne College and Moira House at Eastbourne. DESCRIPTION Hollis Street Farm Barn comprises a fine Grade II Listed period barn which once belonged to the Gilbert Scott family. It was sympathetically converted some years ago and over the last few years, the present owners having incorporated a further section of the original barn into the accommodation, thus creating a very comfortable and well presented home. Part of the property has been formed into an integral cottage wing which has proved very useful to the present owners to accommodate an elderly relative although this could be used as part of the main house. Alternatively it could allow for holiday let/bed & breakfast accommodation, subject to necessary consents. The elevations are mostly brick, part flint, beneath a tiled catslide roof and there is oil-fired central heating as well as some double glazing. The main features include: • The excellent kitchen/breakfast room with underfloor heating, bi- folding doors to the garden, Touchwood kitchen units with “labrador brown” granite worktops and integrated appliances. • A good size drawing room with oak flooring, further doors out, woodburner and butler’s pantry. • Study with views over the walled garden • Modern master bedroom with oak flooring, timbered vaulted ceiling, oak doors and an excellent en suite bathroom. • Second bedroom with beamed, vaulted ceiling, internal Juliet balcony and en suite shower room with door to the landing. • One further bedroom with, on the second floor, a further room, currently used as a sewing room, as well as two good size attic rooms • Integral annexe/cottage wing comprising entrance hall, cloakroom, kitchen/breakfast room, sitting room with well and woodburner, dining room and, above, three bedrooms (one with en suite bathroom) and separate shower room. OUTSIDE A five bar gate opens onto a pea shingle drive approach with additional parking adjacent to the house and the English Heritage oak framed two bay barn/garage 22’ x 18’5 with log store. To one side there is a productive vegetable garden with ten raised beds, greenhouse, cold frame and garden shed. To the south of the house is a delightful and beautifully maintained walled garden with brick paths; pergola; sitting out area; espalier apple, apricot and pear trees; step over apple tree hedges; a pond with fountain; a mulberry tree and a profusion of interesting plants, flowers and roses. In all about 0.36 of an acre.
