Hunters are delighted to present this truly unique property, full of character and charm, all set within the wonderful surroundings of this converted convent and the abundance of shared facilities that it provides. St Margaret's Convent was designed by renowned Victorian gothic architect George Edmund Street and this Grade 1 listed three bedroom house makes up a section of these historic buildings and offers something special to the market.

The private courtyard entrance offers the perfect spot for a morning cuppa and upon entering through the imposing front door you are immediately struck by the features that make this property stand out from the rest. A spacious entrance hall, complete with high ceilings, exposed stonework and wood panelling provides a warm welcome along with ample storage options for coats and boots.

The features continue in the kitchen including a beautifully ornate window, quarry tiled flooring and butler sink. Beyond the solid double doors a simply stunning, eight metre long living room opens ahead. With windows running along the entire length, beamed and vaulted ceilings and solid wood flooring, this space has to be seen to be appreciated.

Back off the entrance hall you will find a double bedroom, complete with another stunning original window, a versatile space currently used as a dressing room and utility area as well as an en-suite shower room. A wide and simply beautiful staircase sweeps from the ground to the first floor to a landing with exposed limestone and a charming mullion window with window seat. On this floor a further bedroom and bathroom awaits. Finally, up on the second floor is the third bedroom with super high beamed ceilings, exposed brickwork with wonderful views of the Chapel..

Externally the impressive communal grounds comprise 11 ½ acres, which are maintained by the Residents Association and provide amenities for the exclusive use of the residents, which include a heated swimming pool, tennis courts, a barbecue area and children’s play area. The Chapel building has been repurposed and now provides table tennis, gym, badminton and a snooker room (with a full size snooker table)

Location wise, you really do get the best of both worlds here. Whilst enjoying the peace and tranquility of the grounds, the reality is that all that East Grinstead has to offer is within easy walking distance including schools, the mainline train station (London 55 mins) and all town centre shops, restaurants and recreational facilities.

This property does require a degree of modernisation but with amazing features and space already in place, a little added imagination would result in a delightful home for many years to come. For further details and to arrange your viewing call Hunters today!
