2 Redgate Mill Cottages is a very attractive stone cottage, the middle of three cottages dating from the late 1800s and originally part of famous Abergavenny estate. It is set in a stunning rural location with glorious views of the surrounding rolling countryside.
The peaceful setting offers all the benefits of the country whilst being only 1.5 miles away from the mainline station of Eridge from which regular trains take you into London Bridge in just 54 minutes.
The cottage has been significantly updated by the current owners over the last 9 years. This has all been achieved without losing the essential character of the building and the cottage is now presented to a very high standard. The oak double garage with a room above is a fantastic edition offering flexible space with pretty views over the fields and woodland behind. There is parking for three cars outside the 2 car garage. The 124 foot garden benefits from a woodshed, a garden shed and timber frame raised beds and a green house. There are several established fruit bushes and trees along with a productive asparagus bed.
The front stable style door of the cottage opens into the quarry tiled kitchen, a solid fuel Rayburn is an attractive feature but one which the house is not reliant on for central heating. The kitchen is large enough to accommodate a dining table and is well equipped with a fitted electric oven and hob, space for a fridge and plumbing for a dishwasher. Wooden worktops a good sized larder and a Belfast sink complete the country feel.
Walking though the rear of the kitchen brings you into the pretty sitting room, complete with solid oak flooring and a stone fireplace. There are lovely views over the garden through the glazed rear doors.
To the right of the kitchen, the stairs lead up to the first floor which comprises a generously proportioned second bedroom with two windows offering views over the surrounding countryside. A third bedroom and the family bathroom.
Stairs then ascend from the landing up to the master bedroom which is a beautifully light and airy room which spans the whole length of the cottage and includes an ensuite shower room with velux window.
Outside the front of the cottage is the former privy which the current owners have converted to a simple utility room housing the oil fired combi boiler, washing machine, tumble dryer and freezer.
