Description

Understood to date from the mid-1950s, Applecross is a handsome detached house in the Arts & Crafts style, characterised by brick elevations with part tile hanging and decorative inset tile work. The house is set in beautiful part-walled gardens which create a delightful pastoral setting despite the property's convenient proximity to East Grinstead and its many amenities.

The house is very well presented, with a partially open plan layout on the ground floor and many of the rooms enjoying a dual aspect, taking in the views over the gardens and filling the house with natural light. The front door opens to a welcoming entrance hall, off which lies a cloakroom with WC; a turned oak staircase under a three-quarter height window rises to the first floor. Beyond the hall is a versatile, open-plan reception room with original restored woodblock flooring, bi-fold doors opening to the south-east facing rear garden and a fireplace set with a Stovax multi-fuel burner.

The reception room is open to the kitchen, together forming an excellent space for day-to-day family life and entertaining alike; the kitchen is fitted with a good range of oak cabinets with composite worktops and integrated appliances including an under-counter fridge, dishwasher, microwave and a NewWorld range oven.

There are two further reception rooms: a comfortable triple-aspect sitting room with elegant marble fireplace and French doors to the west-facing patio, and a formal dining room lying off the kitchen. A utility room, with space and plumbing for laundry appliances, and a rear hall complete the ground floor; the utility room has provision for conversion to a shower room and together with the rear hall and dining room has the potential to form a separate ground floor bedroom suite or annexe (subject to the necessary consents).

There are four good-sized and well-presented bedrooms on the first floor, all with fitted or built in storage, and bedrooms one and two with wash basins. The bedrooms are served by a spacious family bathroom with a modern white suite, and a separate WC; there has been a recent feasibility plan drawn up for the principal bedroom en suite - please ask agent for details.

A hatch from the landing allows access to a large, boarded attic which has a velux window, power and lighting, good head height and potential for conversion (again, subject to the necessary consents).

Outside
The gardens and grounds of Applecross are of particular note: well-enclosed, mature and beautifully tended, extending to just under one acre in all. The house is well set back from the road, accessed down a private lane which leads to a parking area from which electronically operated timber gates open to a gravel driveway sweeping up to the house and garaging. There are two single garages, one used as a workshop.

The front garden is largely laid to level lawn, dotted with mature fruit trees and bounded to the west by a high Victorian wall topped with intricate finials and pleached fruit trees. Mature beds line the boundaries of the garden, well-stocked with a variety of plants and shrubs including established magnolia and acer; the deep bed alongside the wall is edged by box and divided into a series of outdoor 'rooms', including a vegetable garden.

To the west of the house is a brick terrace in the shade of a mature walnut tree, and to the rear (south) a substantial decked terrace (added 2024) which offers a wonderful outdoor dining and entertaining area, flowing from the house. The decking leads out to an expanse of lawn enclosed by mature hedging, with a handsome mature mulberry tree. Beyond here is a further area of garden, with copper beech to the southern boundary, where there is a large insulated summerhouse with power for lighting and appliances, a wood-effect electric burner and a generous decked terrace.

Set away from the house, the summerhouse and its surrounding terrace are ideal for summer entertaining or home working away from the house. In the south-eastern corner of the grounds is a screened area housing a greenhouse and timber garden shed (both with power connected), which would make an ideal kitchen garden.
