Tucked between Ninfield and Boreham Street, Stone Cottage is a beautifully renovated 3/4-bedroom detached bungalow combining period character with practical, flexible outbuildings. Inside, handcrafted oak joinery, vaulted ceilings and stained-glass details give the home immediate charm, while pine and wide wooden floors run throughout to create a warm, cohesive feel. The dual-aspect living room with log burner and garden access anchors relaxed daily life.
The handmade farmhouse kitchen is a standout: vaulted with Velux windows and an eye-catching circular stained-glass feature above the sink. Accommodation includes three double bedrooms and a flexible fourth room suitable as a study, snug or guest room, plus a single family bathroom. Recent upgrades present a move-in-ready finish, though the property retains its period bones and scope for personalisation.
Externally the plot is a major asset. Wraparound gardens, patio zones, a pond, greenhouse and vegetable area provide varied outdoor spaces for entertaining or quiet retreat. A powered 10m x 5m workshop and a newly built oak-framed three-bay garage with insulated upper floor offer practical workspace and strong potential for conversion or home studio (subject to planning). Additional land behind the carport may allow further development — planning advice is already being sought.
Practical points to note: heating is oil-fed with an oil boiler and the EPC is rated D. Any conversion of the garage, attic or additional land will require planning consent. The semi-rural location gives excellent road links to Eastbourne, Bexhill and Battle, good broadband and very low local crime, making this particularly appealing to downsizers seeking countryside living with convenient access to services.
