1 The Gables, Argos Hill – A Rare Blend of Timeless Elegance and Contemporary Living
A beautifully reimagined ground floor apartment, set within a historic country house, offering over 1100 sq ft of stylish, character-filled living.
Tucked away in the enchanting hamlet of Argos Hill, near the heart of Rotherfield and a stone’s throw from Crowborough, lies 1 The Gables, a unique opportunity to own a slice of English country charm.
Once part of a grand country house, the building likely dates back to the late 19th or early 20th century, reflecting the architectural styles of that period. This three-bedroom, two-bathroom ground floor apartment has been thoughtfully refurbished, preserving a wealth of period features while embracing a modern, effortless lifestyle.
From the private porch, you step through the stable door, and are welcomed by a black-and-white tiled foyer – currently used as a peaceful office space – setting the tone for the character and versatility that flows throughout.
The property unfolds into a stunning open-plan living, kitchen and dining area, where original restored flooring and a feature fireplace create a warm and inviting heart to the home. The kitchen is a culinary delight: a central island lit by statement pendant lights, integrated NEFF appliances, a SMEG oven, and generous worktops – perfect for both intimate meals and lively gatherings.
Picture yourself enjoying a morning coffee or evening supper while gazing through wraparound windows across sweeping gardens and far-reaching countryside. It’s not uncommon to spot deer families and abundant wildlife just beyond your window.
The thoughtful layout offers space and flexibility:
A spacious master bedroom flooded with natural light from a huge window, complete with built-in wardrobes
A stylish wet room featuring a contemporary waterfall shower
Two further well-sized bedrooms (one easily adaptable as a home office or guest roo
