2 Everlands is a beautifully presented and substantial portion of a distinguished country house, enjoying a glorious rural setting with remarkable far-reaching views, set within approximately 6 acres of stunning landscaped gardens. Located just 1.5 miles from the highly desirable village of Ide Hill with its traditional pub, community shop, church, and primary school, this exceptional home offers the perfect balance of seclusion and convenience.

Dating back to 1870, with later additions, the property is well maintained and full of character.

French doors open directly to the garden, seamlessly connecting indoors and out. Adjoining the kitchen, a formal dining room boasts a striking mural of autumn trees, adding warmth and atmosphere to gatherings and celebrations.
