The interiors are well-presented and spacious, and there is tiled flooring with underfloor heating to the ground floor and wood flooring on the first floor.

Across the hall is the triple aspect kitchen/dining room. The kitchen is well-equipped with a wide range of contemporary units under granite and composite surfaces, with a wide breakfast bar with a solid wood prep area; appliances include a Smeg dual-fuel range cooker and dishwasher.

Gardens
The front garden is mainly laid to lawn; at the rear, the garden is mainly laid to lawn, with post and rail fencing and a stone paved terrace laid to the north and east elevations of the house. Set in the lawn is a covered well, which was once the pump house for Nutley village; it is believed to be Sussex's deepest well.

The eastern terrace opens out, and is fitted with a fully equipped outdoor kitchen and bar area including a pizza oven and space for a barbecue, with electricity points for fridges if required; a tiki hut provides a charming space to sit and enjoy the spectacular landscape.

The wide sandstone terrace has shingled beds with exotic palms, and offers plenty of space for garden furniture. It leads up to a sun deck with space for loungers, next to the large koi pond. On the other side of the pond is a sheltered seating area, offering a peaceful spot to relax.

Outbuildings
The electrically operated gates open to a wide driveway around which the outbuildings and house are arranged; the driveway provides parking for multiple vehicles and has a spur leading on to the paddocks.

Tarbys Farm offers a variety of versatile outbuildings, with huge potential for a range of uses.

The courtyard has been used to host large events and has is served by a single story timber outbuilding comprising a catering kitchen and storage; a raised deck to the rear provides a further seating area with a view of the koi pond. In the far corner is a two bay garage/storage.
