Inside Camellia Cottage

Camellia Cottage may sound like a petite house with low ceilings, but you'll find the opposite inside! This is a spacious detached family home with bags of potential - one that's over 220 m², including the garage and conservatory. The living spaces all flow into one another, with views of the garden from every room in the house.

Step through the front door and you'll be welcomed with a double-height stairwell with a hall big enough for a sofa and a large understairs cupboard that's perfect for boots or your Christmas decorations. A cloakroom/WC off the hall is a handy place to hang coats after a muddy countryside walk.

There's a country-style shaker kitchen with an electric hob, oven and space for a dishwasher, leading into a utility area featuring a pantry cupboard, a butler sink, space for an American-style fridge, and room for a washer/dryer. From the kitchen, you can open the door into the dining room, which leads into the large, light-filled lounge with garden views. For even more living space, open the doors into the conservatory - a real suntrap that offers great light for painting, reading and relaxing.

On the other side of the kitchen is potential! There's a room that could be an office, a studio, or a fourth bedroom (subject to conversion and building regulations). There's access to the double garage from this part of the house, plus a stable door leading out to the back garden.

Upstairs, you'll find three large bedrooms, all with built-in wardrobes. On this level, there's also a family shower room, and the master bedroom has an en-suite bathroom.


Outside Camellia Cottage

There's a driveway leading up to Camellia Cottage with room for four cars, plus a double garage. The garden lawn wraps around the house, so you have a great outlook from inside the house in every direction. There are some beautiful mature trees, flowerbeds and a patio area at the back of the house - a sunny area for family barbecues or a morning cup of coffee.


Isfield village location

Camellia Cottage is in the heart of the pretty village of Isfield, next to the entrance to Isfield Farm Shop.
