School LaneNutley, Uckfield, East Sussex, TN22 3PG

Built in the early 1990s, Nutley Place is a handsome modern country house characterised in a Tudor style, with black and white timbered elevations under a tiled roof. The house is located down a private lane just off the High Street in the popular village of Nutley, and is set in established landscaped gardens with a lovely rural outlook, allowing privacy without seclusion. The spacious and well-presented accommodation is arranged over two floors, extending to a generous 4,350 square feet with features of note including very well-proportioned rooms, high ceilings with timber beams, and wooden framed double glazed windows with leaded light panes; double doors between many of the rooms on the ground floor enhance the spacious feel and create a pleasing flow between the living spaces.

The full extent and layout of the house can be seen on the accompanying floor plan. A solid wood front door under a stone archway opens to the impressive part-vaulted dining hall, from which a turned staircase rises to the first floor galleried landing overlooking the hall. Double doors open to the elegant triple-aspect drawing room which features a brick inglenook fireplace with heavy oak bressumer and hammered iron canopy as its focal point; three-quarter height windows and French doors frame the views over the gardens. The drawing room adjoins the games/family room, a more informal reception room ideal for entertaining, with fitted drinks bar and space for a pool table.

The kitchen and breakfast room is well-appointed with a range of wooden units, granite worktops and space for a range oven and central breakfast table; the kitchen is served by the adjacent utility and boot room. A wonderful south-east facing conservatory, a study with fitted desk and shelving, and a cloakroom complete the ground floor accommodation.

There are five spacious bedrooms and a shower room lying off the galleried first floor landing, including a generous principal suite with dressing area and en suite shower room, and an equally large guest bedroom with en suite bathroom.

Outside
Nutley Place is situated at the end of a private lane, accessed via electronically operated wrought iron gates mounted on brick pillars, which open to a gravel parking and turning circle ahead of the house and triple garage.

The gardens and grounds are of particular note, the formal gardens lying predominantly to the south and west, sloping gently down away from the house enhancing the view over the rural landscape beyond. A paved terrace spans the rear of the house and extends around to the south, a lovely spot for dining al fresco, part covered by a timber pergola. A detached outbuilding is currently used as a gym.

Steps descend from the terrace to the swimming pool, which has a paved surround and a timber cabin housing the pool equipment. Beyond the swimming pool, the garden is laid to level lawn, dotted with spring bulbs and mature trees, and enclosed by post and rail fencing. A fenced paddock lies to the north of the house.

In all, about 2.1 acres.
