Full Details for 7 Bedroom Detached for sale in Burgess Hill, RH15 :

A handsome 7 bedroom Jacobean house listed Grade II*, documented as being of particular historical and architectural interest, believed to date from circa 1621, built of brick with mathematical tiled elevations to the western flank beneath a tiled and Horsham stone roof. The property is surrounded on all sides by its own gardens and grounds which extend to 1.5 acres, enclosed by mature trees and hedging offering a high degree of privacy, situated within this unadopted no-through private lane on the north eastern outskirts of Burgess Hill within the parish of Wivelsfield. Although the current owners undertook a complete renovation and sympathetic modernisation programme in 1996, all the character associated with the era remains. The accommodation is very flexible and well laid out arranged over 3 floors and comprises a large entrance hall with brick floor leading to the dual aspect living room which features an attractive 15’ Inglenook fireplace with exposed oak floor. From the inner hallway a staircase leads to the 1st floor and beneath this there is access to the cellar (divided into 2 large rooms with 6’3 ceiling height).  There is a cloakroom, a large second sitting room with exposed oak floor, a study with built-in furniture and a computer network hub and a good sized dining hall with Inglenook fireplace, exposed brick floor and a ‘secret’ staircase to the 1st floor.  The kitchen/breakfast room has been re-fitted by Clive Christian with hand painted cupboards, fired earth tiles, granite work surfaces  with space for a range style cooker, fully integrated Miele dishwasher, Gaggenau gas hob and French oak floor.  A large utility room, boot room and a 2nd cloakroom lead off the kitchen/breakfast room.  On the 1st floor there is a master bedroom with en-suite bathroom and dressing room/bedroom 7.  Bedroom 2 has an en-suite shower room with Power Shower and there are 2 further double bedrooms and a family bathroom.  From bedroom 4 there is a secret staircase (continuation from the dining room) to a 5th large double bedroom with an en-suite bathroom fitted with a contemporary white suite.  From the landing a staircase leads to a 2nd floor self contained bedroom suite featuring a bedroom (6), a sitting room and a bathroom which would be ideal for an au-pair etc.

Theobalds Farm is approached via an electric five bar gate and a  long driveway which leads to a brick built large garage with oak double doors and continues to the front of the property flanked by lawns and colourful flower borders.  A brick built games room is situated close to the main house with an inglenook fireplace and a bar.  To the northern side of the front garden there is a 37’ x 16’ timber barn with a machine store next door.  The remainder of the gardens are mainly situated to the south and east, laid to large expanses of lawn with a pond and a well with pump.  Adjacent to the house and central to the gardens is a completely secluded walled garden laid to lawn measuring approximately 90’ x 45’ enclosed on 2 sides by period walls and to the other side by a brick outhouse and a green house with ancient vines.  The whole plot extends to 1.5 acres.
