Marley Lane, Battle

Forming part of the Battle Abbey estate during the reign of King Henry VIII, this fine country house occupies a semi rural position of great character. Set within approximately one acre (TBV), it is approached through a five bar wooden gate and along a private driveway passing two lawned sections before reaching a gravelled parking area with a paved section ideal for turning. The gardens combine lawn, mature trees and shrubbery, adjoining woodland and open fields. To the rear, a south facing paved terrace is perfect for summer entertaining, while a charming wooden bridge crosses an attractive stream to a further pathway and lawned area, leading to a timber stable and workshop complex with fenced paddock backing onto Great Battle Woods. A detached double garage completes the outside space. Spanning over 2,300 sq ft, the home is full of cottage charm. The ground floor offers an entrance porch and hall with access to the galleried landing, a triple aspect dining room with log burner, a fitted kitchen/breakfast room with French doors to the terrace, a secondary staircase, downstairs wc, boiler room and utility room with side access. The kitchen leads to a panelled drawing room, the oldest part of the house, with a deep inglenook fireplace and brick hearth, opening to a rear snug and on to a study or fourth bedroom and a large bathroom. Upstairs are three double bedrooms, two with en suites, including a principal bedroom with roof window, vaulted ceiling and brick feature fireplace. The remaining bedroom has direct access to the family bathroom, with an inner landing linking both bedrooms and a staircase down to the kitchen. Throughout, the home boasts exposed timber beams and oak panelling. It sits within easy reach of Battle mainline station, the historic High Street and Battle Abbey itself, with Claverham Community College among the local schools, and glorious country walks close by.
