A characterful cottage of great character, forming one of five former railwaymen's cottages, standing in the highly sought-after rural village East Tisted.

There are two bedrooms to the first floor (one with a wood burning stove) and a large bathroom with electric under floor heating. The principal bedroom has two large sash windows and a fireplace with a wood burning stove.

The garden is principally set to the rear and extends to about 160 ft/48.9m. This is a very interesting cottage of character standing in a fine village location with lovely farmland views.
