"A remarkable 16th-century Wealden Hall House surrounded by ancient woodland, with generous gardens and beautifully preserved period character"
The Property
Hucking Court is a wonderfully preserved example of a 16th-century Wealden Hall House, retaining an impressive wealth of original character while offering the flexibility required for modern family life. Original beams feature throughout, with the generous sitting room providing a particularly striking centrepiece. Herringbone parquet flooring, a substantial inglenook fireplace and log burner create a warm and inviting setting for evenings at home.
The family room offers a more intimate space, while the adjoining country-style kitchen and dining room combine Shaker cabinetry and a classic Aga with a practical layout for everyday living and entertaining. A utility/cloakroom provides useful access to the garden.
Upstairs, four generous double bedrooms and a further single bedroom are arranged around a characterful landing, with exposed beams continuing throughout. Two family bathrooms serve this floor, including one with a striking diagonal oak brace. The second floor provides a more private retreat, with a vaulted double bedroom, eaves storage and an en-suite bathroom with roll-top bath.
Externally
The house is approached via a sweeping driveway leading to generous gated parking and a double garage. The established gardens extend to nearly half an acre, with mature trees providing a wonderful sense of privacy.
A separate pitched-roof brick building with its own power supply offers excellent potential as a home office, studio or creative space, with further accessible roof space above. The rear garden includes a greenhouse, fruit trees, attractive seating areas and a bespoke BBQ house, creating plenty of opportunities for outdoor entertaining.
