Description

A delightful detached period house with a lovely secluded garden - Barn Cottage is the result of the conversion of a flint built barn which, originally, formed part of a farm which was believed to have been owned by Lord Willingdon, a former Viceroy of India.

The accommodation is arranged over 2 floors and is attractively presented throughout offering potential for an exceptionally fine home. In addition to the charming private garden there is an additional wooded area of garden where there is generous parking space. Only an internal inspection will convey the individual character and charm of this property. Offered for sale with no onward chain.

Barn Cottage is enviably located within one of the most sought after roads in the Willingdon area. The nearby old world village of Willingdon provides some local facilities including a post office, 2 popular public houses and the ancient parish church of St Marys. Eastbourne town centre with its wide range of facilities is only about 3 miles distant. There are mainline rail services available from Eastbourne and Hampden Park. Sporting facilities in the Eastbourne area include 3 principal golf courses and one of the largest sailing marinas on the south coast. The scenic downland countryside immediately to the west of Willingdon provides wonderful recreational opportunity.
