Description

A rare find, this amazing family home or get-away country retreat! This detached period cottage oozes character and charm in abundance. Located in a picturesque setting with an exceptional 1.5-acre (approx) garden, set out as several inter-connecting secret gardens with bridges crossing over the small streams. Nash Street is a rural hamlet near to the highly desired and sought-after village of Chiddingly, which offers an excellent pub, primary school, village farm shop and church. The old market towns of Heathfield and Hailsham are within a short drive, with the coast at Eastbourne and the County Town of Lewes both about 10 miles. The nearest rail station is only 4.5 miles away in Berwick. St Bedes Private School is a short commute and you do not have to go far to enjoy country walks and the Southdowns on your door step. The exact age of this charming cottage is unknown and initially thought to date back to the 1700's. On seeing the stunning array of low beams and timbers, perhaps much older. A previous proprietor named Signor Wrigg is believed to have inspired the name Siggle Wriggle.

The cottage is set well back from the lane and is accessed via electric timber gates. Once through the gates, the cottage is approached by its own long gravel drive which terminates in a parking area, with ample room to erect a garage if required ( Subject to the usual planning consents). The grounds extend to approximately 1.5 acres and have been lovingly created over many years, with numerous and varied inter-connecting secret gardens, Large pond, linked by herringbone, pebbled and cut pathways. A formal lawn, rose garden and hornbeam and beech avenues lead through to wild, meadow and spring flower gardens. There are various seating areas throughout the beautifully planted grounds, which are a haven for wildlife including nightingales. Recent additions are the stables, and the property is a registered small holding.

The cottage was significantly improved, with an extension, to create a comfortable home of immense character and the conveniences of "modern-day" living, including oil fired central heating, some double glazing and a modern kitchen and bathroom.

An Oak front door leads into a useful entrance porch, then on into the surprisingly bright, treble aspect sitting room. A terracotta tiled floor, heavily beamed ceiling showing the original floorboards to the rooms above and an inglenook fireplace with wood burning stove complete the room. The terracotta floor tiling continues into a study area, which also has exposed ceiling beams showing exposed floorboards. One wall is fitted with sturdy oak bookshelves and a stable door leads out to the garden.

Moving into the extension, a hallway with skylight window has a boiler/linen cupboard, utility cupboard with plumbing for washing machine, further storage cupboard and a cloakroom. The kitchen/dining room is fitted with a range of modern, solid oak floor-to-ceiling cabinets with fluted door fronts and granite worktops with matching upstands. There is a corner composite sink, gas hob with cooker hood, high-level oven and microwave, together with integrated fridge/freezer and space for dishwasher. Sleek marble floor tiling completes the contemporary feel. The bathroom has a modern white suite including bath, separate shower cubicle and marble floor and wall tiling.
On the first floor are three bedrooms, both with exposed wall timbers and windows that overlook the gardens.
