Property description
Garden Cottage is a delightful and magical English country cottage situated on the slopes of Leith Hill with superb views over the south downs and onwards towards the south coast. The house dates back to around the late 18th Century with later additions and offers the potential for updating and extending further (STP). Approached via a long driveway one almost stumbles across this gem, constructed of local Leith Stone. On entering the cottage one is met by a wonderful entrance hall with red brick floor and doors to a ground floor double bedroom, bathroom and cloakroom and dining room with site of the original front door. This leads through to the kitchen and cosy sitting room with fireplace and door to the garden. On the first floor there are a further two bedrooms and bathroom with a secondary staircase leading to a wonderful library with fitted shelving and a wood burning stove. Across a courtyard is a large brick potting shed and site of a large greenhouse which may offer the potential to extend. Outside the gardens are a main feature of the property with a large patio surrounded by cottage garden planting with a gate leading to the driveway with parking for numerous cars and a double garage for the car enthusiast. Further pathways lead to wooded areas of the garden with the scope to reinstate vista points across the Downs.
