A well-maintained Grade II listed cottage arranged over 3 floors with beautiful glimpses of the South Downs, situated in a prominent position in the centre of the village with private rear cottage garden

Ditchling, with its beautiful views of the South Downs, is a historic village playing host to a selection of local shops, cafés, a church, and two public houses including The Bull, an award-winning gastro pub. The larger village of Hassocks, with its mainline train station, is a short drive away and provides regular rail services to London and a more comprehensive array of shops. The local area benefits from a range of revered state and private schools for all ages.

Situated in a prominent position with all the village amenities on its doorstep, this quaint cottage offers accommodation over 3 floors. The property has 2 well-proportioned reception rooms on the ground floor with the light sitting room benefiting from a recently fitted multi fuel stove with a brick surround and hearth along with engineered oak flooring. With many period and character features throughout, the property includes a useful cellar which is accessed from the dining room. The kitchen has a superb vaulted ceiling and glass extension with bi-fold doors out onto the landscaped rear garden creating the feeling of ‘outside in’. The first floor has a bedroom and modern fitted bathroom cleverly utilizing the space. Stairs lead from the first floor to a second floor landing currently used as an office and a further bedroom beyond. A paved patio adjoins the rear of the property with steps leading up to a private, landscaped cottage garden comprising well stocked shrub and plant beds and a shingle seating area.
