| Description | The Grange is a very comfortable manor house of brick and part tile hung elevations situated within an established and secluded south facing garden of just under an acre. The accommodation amounts to just over 5000sqft, arranged over three floors and the rooms are generally light, very well proportioned and with generous ceiling heights. Particular features of the property include working fireplaces in all four reception rooms, some fine exposed timbers and two staircases offering the option to self contain part of the property to form in-law/annexe accommodation if required. The property has been well maintained and we would strongly advise an early viewing to appreciate the full potential on offer.
|
| Situation | The Grange is situated on the edge of Blackboys village with local shops catering for those day to day needs as well as an established primary school and famous coaching inn. Uckfield and Heathfield offer a more comprehensive range of local shops together with sport and recreational facilities and the area is generally well served with established footpaths and bridleways. Trains to London run from Tunbridge Wells, Haywards Heath, Stonegate and Lewis. There are established primary and secondary schools in the public and private sector in the general area and with coastal attractions and theatre in Brighton (approximately 19 miles) and Eastbourne (15 miles).
