2 bed 1 bath Semi-Detached
Private rural plot in the South Downs with garage and extension potential.
Two double bedrooms with original exposed beams and inglenook fireplace
Tucked off a quiet bridleway in the South Downs National Park, this 17th‑century Sussex stone cottage sits on just over a quarter of an acre and offers genuine rural privacy. With two double bedrooms, a working inglenook fireplace, conservatory and a garage with a powered room above, the house combines original character with clear potential for extension or reconfiguration.
The cottage is offered chain free and has planning potential: a loft conversion could create a third en‑suite bedroom, or the adjoining barn might be developed further, both subject to necessary permissions. Mature lawns, planted borders and two ponds (one previously stocked with koi and with a working pump) enhance the plot and give scope for gardeners and wildlife lovers.
Important practical points: the property needs renovation and updating throughout, and broadband speeds are very slow — this property is best suited to buyers who value location and character and are prepared to invest to modernise. There is no flood risk, mobile signal is excellent, and the area has very low crime. Local village amenities, good primary and outstanding secondary schools, and nearby markets in Midhurst and Petworth make this a livable countryside base.
For a buyer seeking a sympathetic restoration project in a protected rural setting, this cottage offers rare scale of plot, historic detail and flexible development options. The location and character will particularly appeal to families or buyers wanting a countryside retreat with long‑term improvement potential.
