Description
Worvell Cottage is an attractive, period home occupying a beautiful plot on the edge of the highly desirable hamlet of Knole, Long Sutton. The property has been extended greatly over the years and much improved by the current owners, with the property being finished to a high standard inside and out. The Cottage enjoys a social aspect with versatile and flexible accommodation, in addition to a large studio and adjoining office; a superb multi-use space, tangentially offering annexe potential.
The property is accessed from the front through a small porch that leads into the snug, which is laid with large flagstone flooring; a feature found throughout the living accommodation. The snug features an attractive inglenook fireplace with Lias hearth, bread oven, oak lintel and woodburning stove in situ. Stone turret-style stairs rise to the side of the inglenook to a first floor bedroom; a large double room with windows to the south fitted with timber shutters — another feature mirrored throughout the property. The room enjoys a large semi-open en-suite with privacy screen, fitted to a pleasant standard with corner shower, WC, ceramic basin in vanity unit and corner cupboard. Back downstairs, adjacent to the snug is a further room with stone fireplace (unused), ideal as either a large home office or fourth bedroom. Beyond the snug is a large kitchen /diner, fitted to a high standard with a range of wall and base units with granite worktops and upstands with tiled splashbacks, sink with drainer, integrated Neff/Bosch appliances including fridge, dishwasher, 2-ring induction hob, microwave oven and an attractive, statement Aga (electric). Adjacent to this is a handy, good sized pantry, with granite worksurfaces over cupboards and a range of shelving. The breakfast area features an L-shaped bench with storage underneath, offering an ideal space for a dining table, in addition to a large dresser. The kitchen opens out into the sitting room, a wonderfully light and airy reception space due to the vaulted ceiling, dual aspect and skylights that bring in ample light. Patio doors lead out to the garden offering a pleasant outlook, whilst the room also boasts a woodburning stove with blue lias surround. The sitting room leads round to a dining area, with ample space for a large table and side door to the patio. Beyond this is a large utility room, tiled and with cupboard space, ceramic Belfast sink and space/plumbing for washing machine and tumble drier. The room hosts the oil fired boiler and rear access, doubling as a boot room/rear lobby. The remaining bedroom accommodation lies at the opposite end of the property, through a solid oak door, again found throughout the cottage, along with solid oak flooring in each of the bedrooms. The master bedroom is accessed through a library, fitted with a range of bookshelves, and enjoys a pair of windows overlooking the front garden. The master benefits from an en-suite fitted with shower, WC and hand basin, with a wide range of storage space, in addition to a large dressing room, equipped with a range of rails and shelves. Bedroom three is a large double, adjacent to the family bathroom, fitted with a bath with shower over, WC and basin within vanity unit.

The principal area of garden lies directly to the south of the cottage, comprising a large lawn bordered by an array of mature foliage, which benefits from a watering system, creating a private, attractive, and vibrant enclave.

The bar, along with the remainder of the garden, enjoys a Wi-Fi connection, and is equipped with power, lighting, built-in fridge, Bose speaker system, and a sink.
