A detached village house with panoramic South Downs views
Set at the heart of the historic village of Turners Hill, Ridge House is a beautifully positioned period home with far reaching views towards both the South Downs and Ashdown Forest. Occupying a generous plot, this character filled family home offers enormous potential right in the centre of one of West Sussex’s most popular villages.
Turners Hill has local amenities including a village shop, hairdressers and public houses. There is a village primary school and easy access to excellent schools such as Ardingly College, Worth School, and Brambletye. East Grinstead and Haywards Heath lie just 4 and 8 miles away, offering independent shops, artisan cafés and restaurants and direct rail connections to London in under an hour. The nearby A23 and M23 provide fast access to Gatwick Airport, the south coast, and the M25.
An elegant period property
Ridge House retains many original features, including high ceilings, sash windows, and a cast iron fireplace that greets guests at the entrance. There are two double aspect reception rooms providing living and dining space and the kitchen/breakfast room offers charming period details, including a brick bread oven. There is also a pantry, which could be further adapted to create a utility room, and a cellar. Upstairs, a galleried landing leads to a spacious principal bedroom with fitted wardrobes, an en-suite, and panoramic southerly views. Four further bedrooms are served by a recently refitted family shower room. The property offers a new owner plenty of scope to improve and enhance to create their ideal living space.
A typical cottage garden
The gardens at Ridge House are thoughtfully maintained and curated. The plot is south facing and unfolds with broad lawns, well stocked borders and a number of vegetable beds. An upper terrace offers the perfect place point for al fresco dining, while steps lead down to a croquet lawn and a secluded pond area, surrounded by trees and wildflowers.
There is a double garage with roof mounted solar panels includes a first floor space ideal for storage or conversion (subject to planning), while a charming greenhouse, garden room, potting shed, and workshop complete the array of outbuildings and offer endless possibilities. In all, the property extends to approximately 0.85 acres.
