This characterful three-bedroom Sussex cottage sits on Handcross High Street and offers village living with practical conveniences. Set over three floors, the home combines period features — an open fireplace and parquet sitting room — with a well-equipped kitchen/dining room and a covered timber gazebo in the west-facing rear garden. The property is offered freehold and chain free, with an allocated off-street parking space to the rear.
The layout works well for a small family: two main bedrooms and bathroom on the first floor, with a larger third bedroom in the loft featuring a dormer and eaves storage. The kitchen comes fitted with quality appliances including a Rangemaster and useful built-in storage/larder cupboards. A generous ground-floor cloakroom/WC and practical garden store add everyday convenience.
Buyers should note some material constraints: the house is of solid-brick construction (original 1930s–1940s build) and is likely to lack wall insulation, the EPC is graded D, and window replacement dates are largely unknown. The plot is cottage‑scale and parking is for a single vehicle only. The front and parts of the exterior show overgrown planting and will need routine maintenance or tidying.
Overall this is a village-centre period home that will suit buyers seeking character, proximity to local schools and Nymans Gardens, and a low‑maintenance outdoor entertaining space. There is scope to improve energy performance and personalise internal finishes over time, making it suitable for a growing family or as a long-term rental investment.
