This delightful Grade II listed cottage is situated on a quiet rural lane on the outskirts of Ashburnham which is an idyllic area that is highly sought after with properties rarely becoming available. The property enjoys stunning views across open countryside to the rear and the terraced garden provides a perfect vantage point for spectacular sunsets. The cottage dates from around 1820 but has been completely updated and benefits from a modern, sympathetically-constructed two-storey extension and recently re-certified electrics.
Entrance to the property is via a weather-boarded porch with stable door into an inner hall with space for coats and footwear. The kitchen has a feature Stanley/Aga oil-fired range providing central heating, hot water and cooking facilities and a stable door to the driveway. The dining room has plenty of space for entertaining and the living room has an open fire and French doors leading to the large rear garden.
Upstairs there is a master bedroom with large walk-in wardrobe and far-reaching views over fields. The second bedroom has an unusual galleried landing, built-in wardrobes, en-suite shower and hand basin. In addition, there is a separate WC with hand basin plus the family bathroom with spa bath and Velux window. There is also concealed access to the large roof space which is fully boarded and could be converted into further accommodation subject to the relevant planning consents.
To the side of the property is a gated area of off-road parking and to the rear there is plenty of outside storage including a large timber building at the end of the garden which benefits from light and power. For those seeking peaceful country living within easy reach of all amenities, early viewing is imperative to avoid disappointment and is strictly by appointment with the vendors' sole agents.
Location:-
Set amidst open countryside, approximately six miles from the historic Abbey town of Battle with its comprehensive range of High Street shops and facilities and mainline station with regular services to London (on the Charing Cross/Cannon Street line) and within easy reach of the coast. In addition, the area is well served with primary and secondary schools in the private and public sector as well as sport and recreational facilities, established footpaths, bridleways and numerous historic buildings of significant interest in the general area.
