Description

Nestled in the South Downs National Park, this 17th-century thatched cottage is a hidden gem that whispers of centuries past. With its freshly re-thatched roof, oak beams, and stone walls, every detail carries the patina of history, creating a home of rare authenticity and charm. The cottage is surrounded by wraparound gardens, framing beautiful views of the Downs, and is filled with natural light, birdsong, and the fragrance of fruit trees. The interior is a masterclass in period charm, with a grand inglenook fireplace, low ceilings, and uneven glass panes. The kitchen, dining room, snug, and family bathroom are sensitively incorporated into the ground floor, while three intimate bedrooms provide cozy retreats upstairs. The gardens are a haven, with mature trees, roses, and sweeping lawns, offering the perfect setting for outdoor living. With its sturdy bones and abundance of character, this cottage invites a discerning buyer to enhance and refine while preserving its spirit, making it the perfect opportunity to write the next chapter in its remarkable story.
