Rock Cottage is set within one of the most tranquil locations on the South Downs. Formerly two farm cottages, it has since been merged into one, to create this very special, well-presented, family home. There is an abundance of character and charm throughout the property, with stunning southerly views over the unspoilt countryside to the Downs.

On entrance to Rock Cottage, is an impressive central staircase leading up to the galleried landing, giving wonderful depth down to the dining room, which features oak flooring, and a cosy log burning stove. The ground floor also accommodates a study with views to the east, a playroom and guest cloakroom.

At the heart of the house lies the triple aspect kitchen/dining room with two sets of double doors leading onto the immaculate south-facing garden. The kitchen has bespoke handmade painted timber units, a range cooker, butler sink, an electric hob and oven, plate warming oven, a fitted dresser unit and a corner display cupboard. There is an additional walk in pantry that keeps cool during the summer months.

The expansive triple aspect drawing room also enjoys the panoramic views to the south, with an open fireplace with carved marble mantelpiece and tiled insets. The drawing room also has double doors leading out to the gardens and wild meadows.

Situated on the first floor is the immaculate principal bedroom suite, which is bright and spacious with the striking southerly views over the gardens to the South Downs. There are two further double bedrooms both with bathroom en-suite and the remaining three bedrooms are well served by the family bathroom.

Rock Cottage also benefits from a lower ground floor, which can be accessed via a separate staircase between the back door and kitchen. This additional space accommodates a utility room and another reception room, which is currently being used as a family room, with plenty of storage too.

Rock Cottage is approached via a five bar timber gate opening onto a sweeping gravel drive, providing ample parking and turning.

The gardens are mainly laid to lawn with mature and specimen shrubs, climbing roses and trees including oaks and cherries. There is a more formal garden planted with roses, lupins and lavender next to the house and a large gravel seating area ideal for outdoor entertaining, enjoying the superb southerly views over the countryside to the South Downs. A mature wildflower meadow of long-stem buttercups and ox-eye daisies completes the stunning setting.

There is a paddock to the east offering wonderful views of the surrounding countryside.
