8 bedroom detached house for sale

AN IMPRESSIVE AND HISTORIC GRADE II LISTED COUNTRY HOUSE CLOSE TO THE SURREY/WEST SUSSEX BORDERS SET IN APPROXIMATELY 2.5 ACRES .......

The Clockhouse is an historic and substantial Grade II listed country house of grand proportions displaying a wonderful array of fine period features. According to the notes under the listing entry, the house originates from the 15th century and was re-fronted in the 18th century, extended during the Victorian period and restored in the 20th century. As can be seen on the floorplans, the accommodation is both extensive and versatile.
Given that the property is now in need of refurbishment and updating, which will need to be carried out subject to listed buildings consent, there is considerable potential to create a stunning period country home. The grounds in all, extend to approximately 2.5 acres and provide a high degree of seclusion thanks to mature trees and hedges. The main entrance is via an impressive pair of iron gates which lead to an extensive parking and turning area for many vehicles. Set to the far end of the drive is a substantial detached barn with workshop and garaging plus store /games room above, which is an interesting character building in its own right and compliments the house perfectly. The barn has active planning consent in place REF: MO/2020/1495 for the extension and conversion to create one dwelling with associated amenity space and independent access. The grounds have been neglected in recent years and there is considerable potential for the incoming buyer to restore the gardens to their former glory.
