An outstanding Grade II* Listed Georgian house currently operating as a boutique wellness retreat

The property Hye House is a magnificent Georgian country residence with an extensive layout, including 14 bedrooms, set within beautiful rolling gardens and vineyard. Currently operated as a successful wellness hotel, the house dates from 1744 and has Grade II* Listed status, offering more than 8,000 sq ft of elegant accommodation, with a wealth of original details including high ceilings, tall sash windows, original fireplaces and exposed timber beams.

The house features an impressive reception hall with original tiled flooring and a sweeping oak staircase leading to the upper levels. Ground-floor accommodation includes two formal reception rooms at the front, a formal dining room and a light, airy conservatory with a glazed roof and panoramic windows.

A stunning orangery connects to further accommodation at the rear, including a gym or studio, four rooms, currently being used as bedrooms, one of which is en suite, and two shower rooms. The ground floor also has a generous kitchen with commercial stainless-steel fittings and French doors opening to the gardens and swimming pool.

The spacious first-floor landing provides access to four immaculate double bedrooms, all en suite, together with an office. Stairs continue to the second floor, where there are a further six well-presented bedrooms, all benefiting from en suite facilities. A detached annexe provides useful additional accommodation, comprising an open-plan sitting room, dining room and kitchen, two bedrooms and a shower room

This property has 9.89 acres of land.

Outside

Outside, the stunning gardens and grounds are approached through a gated entrance onto a gravel driveway, leading to the house and a parking and turning area centred around a beautiful fountain. There are extensive lawns to the front, side and beautiful walled garden to the rear, plus a patio area and an outdoor swimming pool with its own sun terrace. Beyond the formal gardens are a vineyard and peaceful woodland across the road, with the grounds extending to approximately 9.9 acres in total

Situation

The property lies in the peaceful position on the edge of the highly sought-after village of Crowhurst, surrounded by beautiful High Weald Area countryside and equidistant between the towns of Battle, Bexhill-on-Sea and Hastings. The village has a good primary school, popular local pub, a historic parish church, a village hall and a recreation ground, while the RSPB’s Fore Wood nature reserve, a Site of Special Scientific Interest, lies within the village itself. The historic town of Battle, three miles to the north, provides a broader range of shops, restaurants, supermarkets and everyday amenities, along with state secondary schooling and the independent Battle Abbey School. The coastal towns of Bexhill-on-Sea and Hastings offer further comprehensive shopping, educational, leisure and cultural facilities. Crowhurst has its own railway station 0.9 miles away from the house on the Hastings line, with services to London (Waterloo, Charing Cross, London Bridge) in approximately 80/90 minutes. There are good connections to London airports, especially Gatwick
