Property description
Set in the heart of this desirable downland village, Thatch Cottage is a delightful Grade II listed property, with the original parts believed to date back to Tudor times. With a quintessential Sussex village outlook to the front and views of the South Downs to the rear, the cottage occupies a wonderful position.
The original part of the house, which was two cottages, is thatched, with a tiled two storey extension added more recently. The ground floor includes two generous reception rooms and a kitchen / breakfast room. The sitting room has an attractive inglenook fireplace and an exposed original brick wall. The first floor has two double bedrooms, a single bedroom and a bathroom. To the front of the house, the garage has been converted into a useful office or occasional bedroom.
The attractive gardens to the front and rear are well stocked with a variety of plants and shrubs. There is a large shed in the back garden, a shed with power in the front garden along with a small shed. The south facing rear garden has a patio with steps up to the lawn, with four fruit trees to the rear. The gravel drive provides parking for three or four cars.
