Charles Wycherley Independent Estate Agents are thrilled to present Fallibroome a truly exceptional, contemporary detached family residence nestled in a breathtaking rural setting, perfectly positioned between the charming town of Lewes and village of Ringmer.
This magnificent five-bedroom home has been thoughtfully extended and exquisitely finished by its current owners, creating a haven of modern luxury and comfort. Set on idyllic Norlington Lane, Fallibroome enjoys a tranquil location surrounded by open fields on three sides, offering both privacy and panoramic countryside views. Despite its peaceful seclusion, the vibrant heart of Ringmer village is just a ten-minute stroll away, with immediate access to scenic country walks right from your doorstep.
Ground Floor: Step into a welcoming open entrance hall that flows seamlessly into the show-stopping 30' kitchen/diner. This heart of the home features a high-end Neptune kitchen with a grand central island, premium appliances, and a spacious dining area framed by double-glazed French doors opening onto the sun-drenched, south-facing garden perfect for entertaining and family gatherings.
The kitchen/diner connects effortlessly to the impressive 26' sitting room, a triple-aspect space bathed in natural light, with a striking fireplace and wood-burner as its centrepiece. French doors invite you to step outside and soak in the far-reaching views, while the room's generous proportions create a bright, inviting atmosphere for relaxation or entertaining. A dedicated study offers a peaceful workspace with views over the front garden and driveway, ideal for remote working.
West Wing: Provides flexible living options, including two double bedrooms one with a luxurious ensuite bathroom boasting a standalone bath with countryside views and a walk-in shower. A second sitting room (or potential sixth bedroom) opens to the garden, while a stylish family shower room, utility room, and clever concealed storage complete this versatile area.
First Floor: Upstairs, the main suite is a sanctuary of space and style, featuring a large double-aspect bedroom with stunning views, a sleek ensuite shower room, and a bespoke dressing room with extensive wardrobes. Two further double bedrooms, a spacious landing/study area, and a contemporary family shower room provide ample accommodation for family and guests.
Outside: The property is approached via automatic double timber gates leading to a sweeping driveway and ample parking. The detached garage offers exciting potential for conversion into a one-bedroom annexe (subject to planning), with a workshop/office and possible roof space development.
The rear garden is a true oasis, with a full-width Brazilian slate patio, lush lawn, and a secluded seating area designed for both relaxation and entertaining all set against the backdrop of uninterrupted countryside views. Additional features include a timber outbuilding, oil central heating, and high-quality double-glazed windows with elegant oak interiors.
Location: Ringmer village offers a vibrant community spirit and a wealth of amenities, including excellent schools, shops, cafes, and essential services. The historic town of Lewes is just three miles away, providing a wider array of independent shops, restaurants, and cultural attractions, as well as direct rail links to London and Brighton. Fallibroome is also within easy reach of Glyndebourne Opera House, golf courses, and the stunning South Coast.
