Wren House is a late Victorian property built in around 1890 and was once the local bakery. It has attractive double fronted elevations with sash windows and is screened from the country lane by the original brick pillars and wrought iron balustrading typical of the era. A spacious entrance hall has double doors to either side leading into both the living and dining areas both with bay windows to the front of the property with rural views. The kitchen is open-plan to the dining area making it a bright, triple aspect space, perfect for family living and entertaining. There is also a study and conservatory to the rear overlooking the rear garden. To the first floor there are four generous bedrooms with an en-suite to the master and a good-size family bathroom, all of which enjoy rural views or an aspect over the garden. Outside, a gravel driveway down one side of the property culminates in a large parking area. Immediately to the rear of the property just outside of the conservatory is a paved area, ideal for alfresco dining. Two separate sets of steps lead up to the remainder of the garden, which is predominantly to lawn and orientated to the south east. There are several sheds with power and light as well as a log store and greenhouse and a vegetable garden.
Crowhurst itself offers a public house and a mainline station with services to Charing Cross and Cannon Street and to the coast at St Leonards. The nearby town of Battle caters for day to day needs with a number of independent shops, supermarket and Tesco Express. The area is generally well served for schooling, both comprehensive and private at secondary and primary levels, as well as sites of historical interest, recreational facilities and areas of Outstanding Natural Beauty. The property is offered to the market with no onwards chain and viewing is highly recommended.
