A substantial and characterful 17th-century home set within approximately 1.55 acres on the semi-rural edge of Rudgwick. Rich in exposed timbers and period features, the house offers generous accommodation over three floors, complemented by a detached double garage and an exceptional converted barn with scope for annexe or studio use, subject to consents. Offering space, privacy and genuine flexibility, this is a rare opportunity.
The sense of scale and character is immediately apparent on arrival. A private gated gravel driveway provides extensive parking and turning space, framed by mature lawns, hedging and specimen trees, before gravel pathways lead to the front door and around to the gardens beyond.The ground floor accommodation is centred around two excellent reception rooms that beautifully reflect the age and proportions of the house. The principal drawing and dining room is a particularly impressive dual-aspect space extending to around 23ft, with exposed ceiling beams and a magnificent working inglenook fireplace forming a striking focal point beneath a deep brick hearth and hood. This is a room equally suited to larger gatherings and quieter evenings, combining warmth, atmosphere and flexibility. A second reception room offers a more intimate setting, ideal as a snug, sitting room or study.Flowing naturally from the reception space is the heart of the home: a superb kitchen/dining/breakfast room extending to approximately 20ft and featuring a dramatic vaulted ceiling. Thoughtfully designed to balance period charm with modern practicality, the kitchen is fitted with bespoke country-style cabinetry, generous work surfaces and integrated appliances, all enhanced by warm, well-considered lighting. There is ample room for dining and everyday family life, while windows and French doors create a strong connection with the gardens and bring in an abundance of natural light.The upper floors continue the theme of space and character, with five well-proportioned bedrooms arranged over two levels. The principal bedroom is a particularly appealing room, featuring exposed structural timbers, excellent proportions and a calm, elevated outlook across the surrounding grounds. The remaining bedrooms are all comfortably sized, each enjoying their own individual character, good ceiling heights and pleasant views. The accommodation is served by a family bathroom and an additional top-floor en-suite bathroom with both bath and separate shower, while a ground-floor cloakroom adds further convenience.Outside, the gardens and grounds are a standout feature. The rear garden enjoys a favoured southerly aspect and a gently sloping layout, providing a wonderfully private and open outlook. A wide full-width terrace offers an ideal space for outdoor entertaining, with steps leading down to expansive lawns interspersed with mature trees. A timber summer house is discreetly positioned to enjoy further views across the gardens, while post-and-rail fencing and five-bar gates lead through to the lower lawns and into the bluebell woodland beyond.The detached double garage measures approximately 24ft by 20ft, with twin up-and-over doors, weather-boarded elevations and extensive eaves storage. Beyond this, one of the most compelling features of the property is the converted period barn, extending to over 41ft in width. Currently arranged as a vaulted studio space with cloakroom and utility area, alongside a separate workshop, it offers significant versatility and genuine potential for annexe accommodation, home working or creative use, subject to the relevant consents.Lower Hill House is a rare opportunity to acquire a house of genuine character and substance, set within impressive grounds and offering flexibility for modern family life alongside exciting future potential. A viewing is essential to fully appreciate the proportions, setting and atmosphere of this exceptional home.
