Ivy Cottage is an unlisted 18th-century semi-detached cottage on the edge of Ninfield, offering period charm and flexible living for a family. The house combines character features—an inglenook fireplace and weatherboarded elevations—with practical updates such as double glazing and a modern-style kitchen. Many rooms enjoy far-reaching views across rolling countryside towards the South Downs, and the property sits within the Claverham school catchment.
The layout provides two main bedrooms with an additional ground-floor reception that can serve as a third bedroom, dining room or home office. The established, well-stocked gardens, duck pond and private driveway add useful outdoor space; there is also a large barn that offers storage and development potential subject to planning, but which currently requires repair.
Buyers should note low ceilings and generally small room sizes in parts of the house, and that heating is supplied by an oil-fired boiler (not on a community supply). There is one bathroom downstairs. The cottage has scope to reconfigure and modernise internally, making it suitable for a family seeking character with room to improve rather than a move-in-perfect house.
