Property description
Owned by the same family for eighty years, this charming detached property sits in 0.6 of an acre in the desirable village of Fittleworth.
Being set within the South Downs National park means that there is a real sense of living 'the good life' here, with the large west-facing rear garden enjoying plenty of sun and giving the cottage a surprisingly light and airy feel.
In need of refurbishment, there is almost 1000 sq ft of accommodation over two floors and scope to extend to the side and rear, subject to the relevant consents being obtainable.
The current layout lends itself to a sociable lifestyle with an L-shaped kitchen/diner being a lovely room to entertain friends or family before adjoining to the dual-aspect sitting room.
Both bedrooms are good doubles and have fine views to the rear.
There are a number of outbuildings, including a useful garage with gardener's toilet and two greenhouses.
What the Owner says:
This house was built in 1935 and has been in our family ever since.
It has been a much-loved home with many happy memories.
As keen gardeners, the family always loved the fact that there was so much space outside and that the soil was great for growing - over the years producing prize-winning flowers, fruit and veg. Several generations of children have loved it in the spring and summer when they could happily run around and play all day outside.
