£590,000

DESCRIPTION A unique opportunity to purchase a pretty, character cottage that has been sympathetically and expertly renovated throughout. This semi detached cottage dates from what is believed to be the 17th Century and now offers bright and attractive accommodation. The front door opens into an entrance hall which leads into the sitting room with inglenook fireplace, with a wood burner. This room also provides space for dining, overlooking the garden. The kitchen runs the full depth of the cottage and is fitted with green gloss units and granite worktops. There’s space for a couple of breakfast bar stools at one end, perfect for casual dining or morning coffee, and the pantry offers ample additional storage. Beyond the kitchen is a useful utility room plus separate WC. Upstairs, there are two bedrooms and a beautiful modern bathroom. The master bedroom has bespoke fitted wardrobes to make best use of the available space. There is also a feature fireplace in this room. The second bedroom currently has a built in bed, beside the stone chimney breast plus space for the usual bedroom furniture. At the end of the landing, a low doorway leads into a light, good sized bathroom benefitting from a walk in shower to one end with a freestanding bath to the other end. Outside, the rear garden faces west and is mostly laid to lawn. There are a couple of established seating areas for alfresco dining and relaxing, a choice of the patio or covered area which abuts the property. Nestled within the garden is a shepherds hut which has been fitted out internally and is a cosy and quiet space, separated from the cottage. This would make a great home office space. Set back from the road, the cottage benefits from a driveway at the front, providing parking for several vehicles plus a garage. Many period features remain both internally and externally. An internal viewing is highly recommended. LOCATION The property is located a short walk of the centre of Ansty along a pavement which connects all the way back to Cuckfield, just over a mile away. Ansty itself has a filling station with associated general store and a thriving newly built village hall and cricket pavilion. Cuckfield has a traditional High Street of shops, cafes, pubs and specialist retailers together with the renowned Ockenden Manor spa hotel.
