A very well presented and charming end of terrace cottage, occupying a convenient spot in the centre of the village, complete with beautifully landscaped gardens and views out across the Rother Valley and beyond, comprising two double bedrooms, en-suite and bathroom, open kitchen/dining room and a sitting room.

Tewcot forms a stunning, grade II listed cottage located within the centre of this popular village. The property is in excellent order throughout, with a key feature of the property being the beautifully landscaped gardens, which make the most of the views across the Rother Valley beyond. 

The accommodation comprises an open kitchen/dining room at the rear of the house, making the most of the views and garden, with the kitchen comprising a range of cream units and black granite worktops, integrated sink, cooker and appliances. 

Off the kitchen, the stairs rise to the first floor, and beyond the stairs, there is access to the utility area, providing further storage and space for appliances, and a door to the ground floor bathroom, comprising a bath with shower over, WC and basin. 

The sitting room is also accessed from the kitchen, and enjoys a fireplace with a wood burner, exposed beams and windows to front and side. There is also an original front door to West Street to one corner, but currently, that is not used. 

A further door leads into the ground floor bedroom, enjoying windows to front and rear. 

The first floor bedroom has the best of the views from the rear facing velux style window, plus a further window to front and an array of fitted wardrobes. There is a door to the en-suite shower room, which has been upgraded, and comprises a shower, WC and basin atop a vanity unit, plus a window to rear. 

Outside, to the front, there is direct access via the original front door from West Street to the sitting room, but the garden gate currently provides access to the side garden and on to the rear door into the kitchen/dining room. 

The side garden provides a shed and log store, bin store and flower beds, leading into the main south facing rear garden. 

The rear garden has a large brick paved seating area by the rear door, plus paths between flower beds to the wooden gazebo, creating a fabulous alfresco dining space. The flowerbeds are a sensational, gorgeous backdrop for the house, complete with mature shrubs and fruit trees.
