Description

This charming detached cottage is set in a truly idyllic elevated position, on a no-through lane, with stunning views across Bewl Reservoir. The unlisted property also has a large outbuilding and full planning permission to extend the house, nearly doubling its current footprint, to create a spacious five bedroom family home.

Internally, the property offers 1035 square feet of living space, arranged over two floors, and is a wonderful example of a period cottage with a host of character features. On the ground floor, the accommodation includes a kitchen, sitting room, cloakroom, shower room and dining room. On the first floor there are three bedrooms and a family bathroom.

The front door opens into the cosy living room which has an inglenook fireplace, exposed beams and stairs leading to the first floor. From the living room you enter the kitchen which has a door leading directly out to the rear garden. Adjacent to the living room is a well-proportioned dining room. A shower room and cloakroom complete the ground floor.

On the first floor, the central landing gives access to the two double bedrooms, a single bedroom and a family bathroom.

Outside, the property is approached by a shared private drive with ample parking and front and rear gardens extending to around one acre. The property is in a superb, elevated position with outstanding views across Bewl Reservoir and is surrounded by open farmland.

Planning Permission exists to demolish the existing two storey rear extension and erect a replacement two storey side/rear extension in its place to create a five bedroom family house. Further details can be found on Rother District Council's website:
