Property description

Tucked away from view and barely visible from the road, lies this charming historic, detached Grade II period cottage. Cherry Tree Cottage is believed to have been built in the 18th Century and sits within a plot of approximately 1.4 acres on the rural northern fringes of Billingshurst in the hamlet of Five Oaks. The charm and character of this cottage is clearly visible throughout with beamed ceilings and an inglenook fireplace in the sitting room and a spacious dining room which also enjoys beamed ceilings and a fireplace, both rooms with diamond leaded light windows looking out onto the garden. The property also benefits from a ground floor study/bedroom 4 and a galley style kitchen partitioned from the sitting room with cupboards down each side and a lovely view of the paddock from the kitchen window. Upstairs there are three bedrooms.

A huge benefit to this property is that it comes complete with full planning/listed building consent/building regulations for a two storey side extension. Plans are available on Horsham District Council website on reference DC/15/0828 and DC/15/0827. Furthermore, there was previous planning (now lapsed) to site a recreation cabin in the grounds, plans of which can be viewed on reference DC10/0126.
