3 bedroom end of terrace house

A delightful three bedroom, end-of-terrace cottage set in a wonderful position overlooking the village green of this quintessential Sussex village.

A lovely cottage with a good balance of accommodation in need of some updating, arranged over two floors with, on the ground floor, an entrance lobby which opens onto a good-sized open-plan living room and dining room with wood burning stove and in turn opens onto a sitting room to the rear which gives direct access onto the garden. The kitchen is equipped with a range of fitted wall and floor units with a sink unit, double oven, ceramic hob with extractor hood over, space for washing machine and/or dishwasher; a cupboard houses the oil-fired boiler and a stable door opens onto the garden.

On the first floor there are three bedrooms and a bathroom – the bathroom is fitted with a panelled bath with electric Mira shower over, WC and wash hand basin.

The house is situated on the corner of Station Road and Church Lane, enclosed by an attractive low brick wall which runs from the front of the house down the side of the garden along Church Lane. A small gate on the corner gives access into the front garden and a few steps lead up to the front door; a path leads along the side of the house into the rear garden. There is off-road parking to the bottom of the garden which is also accessed from the lane.

The rear garden is a good size and is an attractive feature of the property; there is a central area of lawn flanked by mature plants and shrubs and a pathway which leads down to a green house. A small gate at the end gives access to the off-road parking area and a useful timber storage shed; the oil storage tank is housed at the end of the garden.

No onward chain.
