SITUATION: Crowborough is a small East Sussex town with a population of approximately 22,000 situated on the edge of the Ashdown Forest with 6,500 acres of open heathland providing recreational facilities. Crowborough has a main line station with a regular service to London Bridge, the journey taking about 1 hour. There are a good range of shops and choice of supermarkets and a leisure centre with swimming pool and squash courts. Royal Tunbridge Wells is approximately 7 miles distant with regular train services to London Charing Cross and Canon Street in less than an hour. There is a good choice of state and independent schools in the area. The South Coast at Brighton and Eastbourne is about 25 miles distant and Gatwick approximately 22 miles distant. There are numerous Golf Courses in the area.

Situated on the popular Millbrook estate, this detached property offers convenient access to Crowborough town centre, local shops, schools, churches and a range of leisure facilities. Now requiring some updating, the property presents an excellent opportunity to create a bright and spacious family home. It benefits from off-road parking, a single garage and a practical entrance porch, ideal for coats and shoes. The well-proportioned living/dining room extends from the front to the rear of the property, enjoying a dual aspect that fills the space with natural light and benefits from a door which opens directly onto the rear garden. The kitchen is large enough to accommodate a small dining table and chairs, while a ground floor cloakroom adds further convenience. Upstairs, there are three well-sized bedrooms and a family shower room. The rear garden is well established with a variety of mature trees and planting. Although it would benefit from some attention, it offers plenty of potential and features a generous patio area, ideal for outdoor dining and entertaining.
There is also potential to enlarge the property (subject to the necessary consents).
