DESCRIPTION: A most charming detached three bedroomed cottage set within a good-sized garden and directly siding onto farmland with wonderful far reaching rural views to the South Downs beyond.
This lovely semi-rural detached three bedroomed cottage has been extensively and tastefully enhanced throughout, to include a splendid modern Shaker style kitchen, a similar styled separate utility / boot room, a separate sitting room with a feature fireplace, a naturally light open plan lounge and dining room also with a feature fireplace and wood burner, a cloakroom, a entrance hall, a landing, three bedrooms all with beautiful rural views, in addition to a generous sized luxury recently fitted family bathroom / shower room.
The existing accommodation although quite adequate, also could be enlarged further with additional potential extensions to the existing property subject to planning.
Furthermore, with a large separate detached garage / workshop with a generous sized loft room over, there is even potential for the garage building to have its upper section converted into perhaps a games room or home office. Subject to planning.
Considering the property is located within a good-sized plot and also enjoys a fabulous semi-rural setting, as well as breath taking views over the adjoining farmland and to the South Downs beyond, it would be considered by many as quite prudent to enhance this property further if required.

PLEASE NOTE RE EXISTING SIZE OF HOUSE: In our opinion, this detached three bedroomed cottage has the potential subject to planning to be extended further if required.
Furthermore, the detached workshop has potential for the upper room to be converted into a home office or family games room.
