The Spinney is an exceptional late Victorian country house, which provides elegant, well-proportioned and beautifully presented accommodation arranged over three floors. The property has been sympathetically improved by the current owner with a great attention to detail.

A particular feature of the property is the magnificent kitchen/breakfast room, which is fitted with an extensive range of bespoke cream painted units with polished granite work surfaces and a walk-in larder. The reception rooms are ideally arranged for formal and informal entertaining, and are complemented over the first and second floors by nine bedrooms and six bath/shower rooms.

The cottage - EPC Rating D<br /><br />The gardens and grounds are a particular feature and provide an exceptional setting for the property. From the minor country lane, wrought iron gates give way to a sweeping gravel driveway, which winds through the grounds providing a magnificent approach and is bordered on one side by the property's two lakes, mature oaks, beech and willows.

Situated a short distance from the main house, is a courtyard complex formed by the detached two bedroom cottage, garden store/workshop, three loose boxes and a three-bay garage with a loft room above.

Immediately adjacent to the drawing room is a wide paved terrace bordered by balustrading. The terrace continues around to the rear of the house, from which steps lead up to a sheltered swimming pool set into a paved surround.

The remainder of the formal gardens are laid to sweeping expanses of lawn with various well-stocked borders and clipped hedges.

The gardens and grounds at The Spinney provide an exceptional and secluded setting for this beautiful period house.

About 10.5 acres.<br /><br />The Spinney lies in a peaceful, elevated rural position, about 1.25 miles to the east of the picturesque village of Waldron, with its 13th Century Parish Church, cricket ground, memorial hall, and public house. The old market town of Heathfield is some 2.5 miles, providing an excellent range of shops and amenities, including three supermarkets.

Stonegate mainline station is approximately 9 miles, to London (Charing Cross/Cannon Street). The regional centre, Royal Tunbridge Wells, is about 15 miles, with a mainline train station to London (Charing Cross in approximately 54 minutes). The county town of Lewes is about 17 miles, whilst Eastbourne is about 15 miles.
