Woodside Lodge, Hailsham, BN27 3PG

Well, this one took us by surprise! From the outside, you could be forgiven for thinking this was an ordinary late Victorian cottage, but step inside and you will discover a home that offers far more than first meets the eye.

The accommodation begins with a spacious entrance porch with built in storage, leading through to three well presented reception rooms, including a versatile snug or study which could also serve as a third bedroom. The ground floor is completed by a modern fitted kitchen with a vaulted ceiling, adding to the sense of space and character.

Upstairs, there are two double bedrooms, a stylish, high specification family bathroom and stairs leading to a generous loft room, offering further flexibility for a variety of uses.

Outside, the rear garden has been completely re-landscaped to create an attractive combination of seating areas, established planting, lawn and patio, alongside a covered, bar style entertaining area. There is also a generously sized workshop, ideal for hobbies, storage or those requiring additional workspace.

To the front, electronically operated gates open to a single garage and off road parking for one vehicle. Further parking for two vehicles is available to the side of the property, accessed via the lane.

Directly across the road is access into Abbots Wood, offering wonderful opportunities for walking and enjoying the surrounding countryside. A regular bus service also operates nearby, providing links towards Polegate and Eastbourne in one direction, and Hailsham and Lewes in the other.

Further benefits include upgraded electrics and gas central heating.

A property full of character, with unexpectedly spacious accommodation, versatile living space and excellent outside facilities, this is one that really deserves to be seen to be fully appreciated.
