Swiftsden Farm Oast is believed to date from the mid 19th century and was converted into a residential family home in the 1990's. The current owners have made significant improvements and alterations to the property and as a result it was shortlisted for the Sussex Heritage Trust Awards, which recognises the highest quality conservation, restoration and design of newly built projects whilst encouraging the use of traditional skills and crafts.

The internal accommodation is beautifully presented and features a wealth of bespoke oak joinery including hardwood sealed unit windows, underfloor heating to the kitchen, dining room and all bathrooms and fibre to the premises.

Reception rooms comprise a south facing sitting room with Hwam wood burning stove and two sets of French doors to the terrace and gardens and off the kitchen, a formal dining room situated within one of the roundels with limestone flooring and a triple aspect. There is also a study with fitted shelves and doors to the garden.

The roundel kitchen is bespoke fitted by Rencraft Kitchens, with oak cupboards and a hand painted central island, all with granite work surfaces. Appliances comprise an electric two oven Aga, an two ring electric hob and integral dishwasher.
