An opportunity to acquire a most charming light and spacious 3-bedroom detached 1920's house within close walking distance of Mayfield village and set within an acre of garden bordering woodland.
Longmead is a unique house in terms of both its style and location offering spacious and light accommodation throughout over two floors with potential to extend subject to planning and would benefit from some updating. The house is set back from a small private road and sits within an acre of beautifully landscaped gardens and woodland.
The front door leads into a welcoming cottage style hallway and leading off is the kitchen with utility room and a downstairs cloakroom. There is a separate dining room with a small snug/sitting room off to one side and French doors to the garden. On the other side of the hallway is a spacious and light sitting room with feature open fireplace, a small snug leads off with French doors out to the rear paved terrace. There is a studio/craft room attached to the house with access directly from the garden. The house offers enormous potential for reconfiguration of the existing rooms on the ground floor whilst retaining the wonderful charm and the period features.
To the first floor are three bedrooms and a family bathroom with separate toilet. One of the bedrooms benefits from its own separate shower. The principal bedrooms enjoy double aspect windows overlooking the gardens to both the front and the rear of the house.
