Swatlands Farm House makes for a wonderful family home, which is very well maintained and presented, while set in an exceptional discreet location. The whole property comprises an extended period farm house, a separate utility room, along with a converted barn annexe, as well as an additional barn conversion, which is laid-out as a home office and gym. These all enjoy a lovely mature garden and a field behind, while being attractively set within the wider farm and benefitting from stunning semi-rural views. The property also enjoys the advantages of superfast fibre broadband and excellent commuter links, with nearby Wadhurst station making it equally well suited to modern home working and commuting.

The unlisted farmhouse covers approximately 2,405 sq ft, offering immaculate, well designed and practical accommodation, including a sizeable extension. There are three reception rooms and a stylish, open-plan kitchen, plus a fine principal bedroom suite and dressing room upstairs, along with three further bedrooms and a shower room. The whole house has been finished to a high standard, including double glazing, whilst at the same time, much of the fine original character is still evident, including fireplaces, exposed timbers and impressive beamed ceilings. The property also gives good access to the exterior, with French doors from the kitchen/family room onto a landscaped terrace, and with a further terrace opening out from the entrance hall, offering a delightful seating area, which takes advantage of the stunning views across the valley to the rear. Here, there is also a large detached utility room building serving the house, complete with a secure dog kennel.

A supplementary barn conversion nearby provides a further two/three bedrooms, independent annexe accommodation, for either family or guests, complete with a kitchen, bathroom, and an en-suite shower room - all finished to a similar standard to the main house, while offering its own individual character through an abundance of modern oak joinery and quality fitments, complementing the exposed pitched ceiling and beams. Again, this property offers a good link to its private garden area, with French doors opening straight from the kitchen.

There is also a further barn conversion next door to this annexe, completing the accommodation, which is laid out as an office and gym, with a cloakroom and shower. This is an ideal space for today’s working from home needs.

The farmhouse has LPG central heating with radiators, supplemented by underfloor electric heating in the kitchen/family room, the hall and also the principal, en-suite bathroom. The annexe is heated by an air sourced heat pump and the home office/gym has electric wall mounted heaters.
Both the farm house and annexe also have wood burning stoves and the kitchen in the farmhouse benefits from an electric complete control Aga.

The other outbuilding is a four car, open bay barn style structure, one bay currently caged for logs/recycling/bins, with two electric car charging points.

Outside
Delightful gardens to the front and sides of the farmhouse, with a field behind to the rear, forming the private surrounds. This includes an orchard area to one side, with some mature fruit trees (a variety of apples and a pear) plus numerous younger trees (several plums, around 10 different varieties of apple, a medlar and a cherry) as well as a sizeable vegetable garden and soft fruit plot.

The remaining retained farm is subject to the development of the neighbouring modern agricultural buildings, currently used as agricultural storage, the large agricultural building is expected to be converted to an independent detached home, whilst the smaller agricultural building may potentially be subject to similar planning for a smaller dwelling in the future. The agricultural buildings are secluded from each other and are surrounded by about 25 acres of mainly fields and woodland, where the current owners have invested a lot of time and energy into restoring the land for nature, encouraging wildlife and increasing species diversity.
