IF YOU have ever fancied having your own lake, now is your chance.
A Victorian country house which has gone on the market has two of them – and a swimming pool as well.
The only hitch might be the price tag, which is £3.25 million.
The Spinney, near Waldron, Heathfield, also has nine bedrooms and five reception rooms over three floors.
The new owner of the property will be greeted with a wide flagstone floor in the huge entrance hall and an imposing oak staircase, pictured left.
The drawing room has a marble fireplace and there are oak panelled doors throughout.
The kitchen/breakfast room has a walk-in larder and bespoke units, topped with granite work surfaces.
Over the first and second floors are a range of reception rooms, perfect for entertaining, as well as the nine bedrooms – plus six bath and shower rooms.
If that isn’t enough, the property features a courtyard complex in addition to the main house.
This includes a detached two bedroom cottage, a garden store/workshop and three-bay garage with a loft room above.
The property sits in a peaceful, rural location, roughly 1.25 miles from the village of Waldron, with a 13th century parish church and cricket ground.
From the minor country lane, wrought iron gates lead to a gravel driveway, winding through the grounds and bordered by the property’s two lakes, mature oaks, beech and willows.
A terrace adjacent to the drawing room leads around the rear of the house with steps to the sheltered swimming pool, as well as the property’s secluded and exceptional formal gardens.
It is being sold by estate agent Strutt and Parker on 01273 083771.
