Set in a peaceful Udimore hamlet, Rose Cottage is an exceptionally presented detached home with flexible, light-filled living arranged over two storeys. The heart of the house is the open-plan living area linking a traditional-style kitchen to a triple-aspect garden room that opens onto a large south-facing terrace — ideal for afternoon sun and easy indoor-outdoor flow.
Designed with comfortable retirement living in mind, the property offers two ground-floor bedrooms (one currently used as a snug) and two double bedrooms upstairs, one with an en-suite and far-reaching rural views. The mature wrap-around garden, wide veranda and huge plot give a strong sense of space and privacy in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.
This listing is marketed with the Homewise Home for Life Lifetime Lease option for buyers aged 60+, which can significantly reduce the upfront cost. As an example, the guide Lifetime Lease price is £368,500 (average saving shown 33% from the full market price of £550,000). Actual price and the option to buy up to 50% equity depend on age and personal circumstances. If you are under 60 you may buy at the full market price.
Important practical points: tenure details are not stated and all services/appliances are untested; current owners park on nearby hardstanding they do not own, though a Certificate of Lawfulness has been obtained for a permeable off-road parking area (RR/2025/1214/O). Heating is primarily via wood-burning and room heaters with an oil-fired boiler noted in the utility area, so prospective buyers should confirm heating arrangements and running costs.
