This beautiful period, Grade II Listed 2 bedroom end of terrace cottage used to be the old school house in Rye Harbour. Situated right next to the mid 19th Century church of the Holy Spirit with its unmistakable roof in the shape of an upturned boat.
You enter the cottage along a walkway overlooking the playing field adjacent with the terrace into a little hallway with storage cupboard. This takes you directly into the cosy living room with its woodburner and space for a small table and chairs. The kitchen is surprisingly large with plenty of worktop space, plenty of traditional style cupboards and drawer base units and matching wall mounted cabinets. Electric Hob with electric oven beneath.
Stairs in the living room take you to the first floor where there is the master bedroom with double aspect windows - looking out to he front towards the playing fields and to the church and the cottage garden behind. There is ample space for a large double bed and there are built in wardrobes at the far end of the room.
The bathroom and toilet are separated though if you wanted to join the two spaces together this would be easy to do so. The bathroom has a bath with washbasin. This floor is completed with an airing cupboard where the boiler is housed.
Rising to the second floor is the second bedroom with beautiful views again over to the church and access into the eaves for storage.
Outside the property a path leads around the side with shared access. There is a large courtyard garden with an area of lawn, an ornamental pond and a variety of trees and shrubs. There is a section of the 'old boys toilets' from when it was a school which is now served as a garden shed - with electricity.
