A delightful 2 bedroom character cottage dating from 1860 with later addition to the ground floor. Accommodation comprises a 20ft sitting and dining room, 'Shaker' style kitchen with wood block work surfaces, and ground floor bathroom. The property further benefits from many timber sealed unit double glazed windows and gas fired central heating. Character features include exposed wall and ceiling timbers, timber latched doors and a cast iron solid fuel burner in the sitting room. Outside, there is a block paved driveway to the side of the property providing parking for two vehicles, a detached garage with adjoining garden store, and a delightful rear garden extending to approximately 60ft, arranged as lawn, mature flower and shrub borders and terraced seating areas. The property has previously been granted full planning permission (now lapsed) to provide a third first floor bedroom and ground floor Garden Room.
Situated in this semi-rural position on the outskirts of the village, close to a local convenience store, with Chailey primary and secondary schools also close to hand. The towns of Lewes (5 miles) and Haywards Heath (7 miles) offer a comprehensive range of shopping facilities and amenities including main line stations and leisure facilities. Close by there are several footpaths offering interesting walks over the adjoining countryside.
