Set at the end of Cansiron Lane within the High Weald Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, this extended semi‑detached cottage offers panoramic countryside views and a rare degree of privacy. The house is surprisingly spacious for its type, arranged over multiple levels with four bedrooms, two bathrooms and a large attic room with eaves storage — an attractive layout for family life or homeworking.
On the ground floor there are three reception rooms including a double‑aspect sitting room and a second living room with a log burner, plus a kitchen/breakfast room and dining room with under‑floor heating. The good‑sized rear garden is predominantly lawn with paved and gravel seating areas, greenhouse, two sheds, fruit trees and vegetable patches, all backing onto open fields. A broad forecourt and detached garage provide parking and storage.
The property has useful modern touches such as an air source heat pump and double glazing, but there are practical considerations to note. The EPC is rated E, the roof shows moss and may need attention, the glazing dates from before 2002, and broadband speeds are very slow — important for anyone who needs reliable high‑speed internet. Council tax is on the higher side and the building dates from the mid‑20th century, so buyers should expect routine maintenance and some updating.
This home will suit buyers seeking a peaceful rural setting with strong outdoor amenity and scope to personalise — particularly families who value school choices nearby and ready access to countryside footpaths. Investors or buyers wanting instant low‑maintenance modern efficiency should factor in upgrade costs for energy performance and connectivity.
