Description
A versatile small farm with Grade II listed farmhouse, equestrian facilities and farm buildings with potential (STP).
Believed to date from the 17th century, Bathurst Farm House is a handsome red brick and part tile-hung family home offering more than 3,300 sq ft of light-filled flexible accommodation arranged over three floors. Designed to provide an elegant yet practical space for family living and entertaining, the home has generously proportioned accommodation which sensitively combines modern amenities with period features. It flows from a welcoming split-level reception hall with a painted brick fireplace, useful storage, and a cloakroom. Living spaces include an L-shaped drawing room with a feature inglenook open fireplace and a door to the rear terrace; a family room/study with an exposed brick fireplace and a door to the garden; and a dining room opening off the reception hall, featuring fitted storage and an exposed brick inglenook fireplace with a woodburning stove. The ground floor accommodation is completed by a kitchen breakfast room with a range of bespoke freestanding units including a central island, complementary worktops, a double Belfast sink, a breakfast room with quarry-tiled flooring, and a useful neighbouring fitted utility room with a door to the forecourt. On the first floor the property provides a principal bedroom with dressing area, three further double bedrooms, a family bathroom with freestanding bath and a separate family shower room with separate neighbouring WC. The property’s two remaining double bedrooms can be found on the vaulted second floor. Outside
Through double wooden gates, a gravelled forecourt provides ample private parking and leads to a triple garage, offering significant storage or workshop space. The main residence is enveloped by a charming formal garden, predominantly laid to lawn and framed by mature shrubs and trees. While ideal for entertaining with its various seating areas, including a pergola-covered patio, and paved terraces, this garden complements the overall rural feel, offering a pleasant transition from the working farm areas.
Beyond the immediate residential curtilage, the property truly shines for its agricultural potential. The residence enjoys far-reaching views over its own enclosed pastureland and the picturesque rolling Sussex countryside. A separate driveway provides independent access to a comprehensive range of outbuildings, forming a dedicated courtyard area. This includes a further double garage, perfect for additional vehicles or equipment storage. The highlight for smallholding activities is undoubtedly the two substantial open-sided barns: a 44ft opensided barn and a more extensive 90ft open-sided barn, the latter featuring indoor stabling. These barns are suitable for a variety of potential uses such as livestock, equestrian or a variety of commercial uses with potential for conversion (STP) to commercial use or holiday lets. Further enhancing the property’s utility are a dedicated log store and a former Coach House which has previously enjoyed planning for a 2 bedroom holiday cottage (now expired). For equestrian enthusiasts, an adjacent all-weather manège provides an excellent facility for riding and training. The combination of well-maintained pastureland and adaptable outbuildings makes this property an ideal setting for establishing a thriving smallholding or pursuing a variety of agricultural, lifestyle or amenity uses within this beautiful rural setting. 46.52 acres in all. Agents note: The array of outbuildings offer an ideal opportunity to convert to a variety of uses, subject to the relevant planning permissions.
