3 bed detached house

This Grade II listed, 17th-century thatched cottage sits on the South Downs National Park, surrounded by wraparound gardens that give way to open countryside and the gentle sweep of the Downs. The cottage has a freshly re-thatched roof and walls that have stood for four centuries, with oak detailing and small-paned leaded windows. Inside, the ground floor features a large drawing room with an impressive inglenook fireplace, a snug, a dining room, and a kitchen, along with a family bathroom and separate WC. The three bedrooms, accessed by a staircase with period rope bannister, offer peaceful views of the gardens and the landscape beyond. Outside, the cottage features a patio for al fresco dining, storage sheds, a garage, and off-road parking. With an abundance of original period detail and the opportunity for sympathetic restoration, this rare property offers a unique and inspiring opportunity for the right buyer.
