Caldbec House is part of a large country house, set in a quiet and peaceful location with far reaching views to the sea, but is within an easy walk to Battle town centre. The houses either side belong to the same owner and have long-term tenants.
The house is full of the owner’s antique furniture and paintings, and is in a great location for exploring the surrounding area, including Battle Abbey. The house is a mix of rustic and original features and furnishings from 1800, melded with modern additions and conveniences; it is both in town, fronting a side road, and overlooking the owner’s fields on both sides, and farmland to the Abbey to the south. Footpaths in all directions. From the moment you walk into the spacious cathedral-ceilinged hall with its antiques and amazing traditional stairway, you feel an immense amount of character. Walk through the enormous kitchen and you will find the tall ceilings continuing through, making this whole experience expansive. You will find everything needed for relaxing week in the countryside.
With ample parking for 6 cars right outside the property, there is no shortage of space both inside and out. Walk through to the huge lounge/dining room which is adorned with more of the owners painting and antiques with plenty of seating, and an open fireplace and views to die for overlooking the owner’s huge garden. Move upstairs and you will find four huge bedrooms, where the artwork, tall ceilings and the antiques just keep featuring throughout. Both bedrooms at the rear of the rear of the property come with a veranda, giving some of the best vistas you will experience; quintessentially what Sussex is all about. There is a large lawned garden, not wholly, fenced off from the neighbours, but with clear boundaries, and more information is in the House room by room guide.
Caldbec House has been owned by the same family for many years, and this is very much apparent, as it is most definitely a home-from-home. Believed to be where King Harold camped the night before he was killed in the Battle of Hastings nearby on 14th October 1066. It is ideal for large family gatherings for birthday or Christmas celebrations and is located in one of the most beautiful parts of East Sussex. This property is located on Caldbec Hill, believed to be where the famous Battle of Hastings conflict took place on the 14th of October 1066. This huge house is conveniently positioned on the edge of Battle, which is a small historical town and is designated High Weald Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, a tourist destination along with being a commuter town for white collar workers in the City of London.
