No Chain
A charming unlisted 3 bedroom semi-detached former farm workers cottage set in delightful gardens of about 0.44 of an acre and in a quiet rural location within the High Weald National Landscape/Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.


Located in an attractive semi rural location about half a mile from Beckley village. Beckley is a small quaint village in East Sussex, known for its rural charm and friendly community. It has a primary school, a village hall, and a local pub, serving as key amenities for residents. There is easy access to Tenterden and Sandhurst to the north and Rye and Hastings to the south east and south.


Built in 1850 as a former farm workers cottage, Muffins exudes all the charm and character of an established property whilst benefitting from a more recent sympathetic side extension (sitting room) and being tastefully refurbished throughout to suit modern day living. Set over 3 floors, the property has an entrance hall with cloakroom and very useful larder/cupboard, a wonderful spacious sitting room with feature brick fireplace and wood burning stove, and double doors opening onto the garden patio. The kitchen/dining area has been fitted with a range of bespoke units with worksurfaces over, a Cannon range style oven and integrated fridge and freezer. There is plenty of space here for a dining table and chairs making this a very sociable family hub. Just off the kitchen is the boot room which works well as a garden room too, with door to the rear garden. To compliment the ground floor is the snug which can be accessed from the dining area and benefits from a feature open fireplace, stairs to the first floor and an understairs storage cupboard. On the first floor, the landing area feels really spacious with a useful reading/study area. There are two double bedrooms on this level and they both share the generous family bathroom with freestanding slipper bath, separate shower cubicle, w/c and wash basin. On the second floor there is the master double bedroom with fitted wardrobes. All the bedroom and bathroom windows benefit from fabulous views over the surrounding countryside and gardens.
The property has been extremely well maintained and early viewing is highly recommended.

Gardens/Outside (about 0.44 acres)
The gardens would suit any budding gardener being well established with borders stocked full of pretty plants, flowers and shrubs. The property is set down a quiet lane and has a detached double length garage with wooden doors and light and power. The driveway provides off road parking for several cars with a path leading to the front door and side access. There are many pretty flowers and shrubs in the front garden that are just starting to bud and flower. The rear garden has a large lawned area with pretty flower borders, established trees (including apple, plum and cherry) and a lovely patio seating area. There are two greenhouses and a productive vegetable plot to one side and a useful garden store. The gardens enjoy a westerly aspect with a good degree of seclusion.
