Description
On the fringes of ancient woodland, where the monks of Battle Abbey once tended vines nine hundred years ago, the Tidebrook Staddle Stone 2023 Chardonnay - made from grapes grown on this very viniyard - has just been awarded a Platinum Medal and 97 points at the Decanter World Wine Awards, placing it among some of the finest wines in the world. It's proof that this seven-acre Sussex setting, home to a 17th-century, Grade II listed timber-framed barn, is capable of producing genuinely world-class wine.
The productive one-acre vineyard, planted with around 1,000 vines of Chardonnay, Pinot Noir and Pinot Meunier, is complemented by a former stable and piggery housing the on-site winery, with scope to plant a further half-acre of vines. Across the stream, three further acres are home to a licensed glamping site of three safari tents, holding full planning permission - a rare achievement within the High Weald Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty - with a proven track record of income generation, strong guest ratings, and further scope to expand, subject to the relevant permissions.
A gravel driveway leads through landscaped borders to generous parking, with mature trees framing the lawn and the winery visible beyond. An arched, oversized entrance opens into a hallway where polished brick flooring and stained-glass windows set the tone for the character within.
To the right, oak flooring gives way to a central snug, where exposed beams, tapestry scenes and an inglenook fireplace with a wood-burning stove make for a warm first impression. Beyond lies the drawing room, spacious and bright, with a second inglenook fireplace and windows drawing in views across the grounds. Turning left from the entrance, the formal dining room continues the brick flooring beneath exposed beams, with large windows overlooking the garden.
The kitchen sits at the heart of the home, its country-style cabinetry and Rangemaster cooker matched by high ceilings and a thatched roof that keep the space naturally cool in summer, while Air and Ground Source Heat Pumps provide year-round warmth. Two sets of doors open from the adjoining breakfast room onto the terrace, with views stretching directly over the vineyard.
Upstairs, five bedrooms are arranged across a light-filled landing, each retaining the timber character of the original barn. The principal bedroom is a genuine sanctuary, with a cathedral-style vaulted ceiling, built-in wardrobes and a stone-finished ensuite, while three further bedrooms and two further bath/shower rooms complete the accommodation. A quiet landing alcove, served by superfast broadband, offers a ready-made space for home working.
Outside, 1.5 acres of formal garden extends directly from the home, with a striped lawn, mature palm and olive trees, and a terrace made for alfresco dining.
Battle Great Barn sits within a pleasant half-hour's walk of the historic town of Battle, via woodland or road, with shops, schools, cafés, pubs and restaurants close by, and Battle Station around 15-20 minutes away for direct trains to Charing Cross in around 90 minutes.
A one-acre parcel of adjacent land is also available by separate agreement. Bordered by open countryside with a peaceful, elevated outlook, it offers scope for future development, subject to the relevant planning consents - a further layer of flexibility for the right buyer.
