An individual detached property designed by local architects Le Fevre and Wood and built in 1968 with brick and part weatherboard clad external elevations set with tall double glazed casement windows beneath a pitched tiled roof. The accommodation is arranged over two levels, as shown on the floor plan with the living room on the first floor to take full advantage of the views. The property is now in need of total refurbishment. The image above shows the property in 1987 with the first-floor balcony that has been removed for safety reasons.

In addition, there is a utility/shower room with a butler sink, plumbing for a washing machine, shower tray and curtain, door to outside and a separate cloakroom with a close coupled w.c. 

FIRST FLOOR On the first floor, there is a triple aspect living room with a wide six casement window providing views across the tennis club and river Rother to the farmland beyond. A hatch leads to a large unconverted loft space. To the rear is a double aspect dining room and a separate double aspect kitchen/breakfast room with a fitted breakfast table with bench seats and a range of cabinets of the period comprising cupboards and drawers beneath work surfaces with a stainless-steel sink.
