6 Bedrooms Town house for sale in Church Street, Uckfield TN22 | £ 1,000,000

Property Description

We are pleased to offer to the market a home steeped in history. Andertons is a Georgian Grade II listed townhouse - the former vicarage to Holy Cross Church. It is believed there has been a dwelling at the site since the 13th Century when the original church was built and it is rumoured that tunnels still remain from the basement to the crypt.

Prior to the development of Uckfield Town, Andertons sat at the peak of the hill with unrivalled views towards the coastline drinking in the South Downs. These spectacular views still remain however you must rise to the upper floors to fully appreciate them. The current owners have taken great pride in restoring this local landmark to its former glory and now offer this immaculate and classy residence to the open market.

Approaching the house from the rear a door opens through into the entrance hallway. To your right; a cloakroom and separate WC, before the hall opens out and the stunning 18th Century Staircase spirals up above you. The sitting room is situated to your left and it is from here you begin to appreciate the attention to detail; hand carved cornicing and ceiling roses, new oak flooring and refurbished wooden sash windows. The heights of the ceiling are extraordinary and with the natural light flowing in abundance this space is a delight. Continuing to the front of the house and you are greeted by an open kitchen/dining room with central island. An extremely sociable space which has benefitted from the same level of attention to detail. The Kitchen includes a large Italian Smeg 'Classic Range' gas cooker among a variety of matching, built in appliances and designer sink. Beyond you will find an ever useful Utility Room with side door leading to a pretty courtyard, with access to the street and a handy brick shed.
As you rise to the first floor landing you will find three bedrooms and the family bathroom. The master bedroom benefitting from a luxury en-suite. Floorboards have been sanded down, brand new high quality bath and shower units installed plus all windows again refurbished and re-balanced.
The second floor has three further bedrooms all of a good size and each with its own individual quirks and original fireplaces. The views from the rear are outstanding and to ensure they could be enjoyed to their full, brand new hand made sash windows have been installed. For those who wish to work from home this floor definitely provides you with a sense of calm and tranquility.
Lastly i will mention the basement which is a real treat and best left as a slight surprise, but rest assured it is a usable space benefiting from a damp proof membrane and even has the potential to be a self contained apartment subject to planning permission.
Externally the rear garden is both private and manageable with a number of lawns and terraces at differing levels creating an inviting and social environment. There is parking for up to four cars which are shielded from the street by wooden gates.

Set on Church Street in the Old Town you are literally minutes away from all the amenities the town has to offer; supermarkets, restaurants, cinema, gyms and the High Street's vibrant cafe culture. Further afield you have swift access to the A22 & A26 which will take you to the historic towns of Lewes and Tunbridge Wells. The mainline railway station at Uckfield offers a regular commuter service to London and there is an excellent selection of both private and state schools nearby. For your leisure pursuits the Ashdown Forest is on the doorstep; whilst the coastal resorts of Brighton & Eastbourne are in easy reach.
