A stunning four bedroom detached Grade II listed thatched cottage located on the edge of Northiam Village set within established gardens to 0.52 acre enjoying beautiful country views over the neighbouring Sherbourne Valley. Formerly occupied as two individual dwellings the current owners purchased 1 and 2 Wellhouse Cottages separately in 1996 and the properties were then amalgamated with the local authority for single dwelling use, this has since provided flexible accommodation suitable as an extended family home, and more recently, the current layout has proved suitable and practical for subletting a room and as Bed and Breakfast accommodation. Accommodation comprises a sitting room with parquet flooring and wood burning stove, separate double aspect living room, cottage style kitchen open to a dining room with a fitted Sandyford range style multipurpose oven and two ground floor bathroom suites. To the first floor are four principal double bedrooms with exposed timbers served by two independent staircases. Outside the property benefits from well tended front and rear gardens hosting a variety of specimen trees, planted beds, kitchen garden and orchard with two separate driveways to the front providing ample parking, detached single garage and further double garage with office above. The property is situated just a short distance from the well renowned Great Dixter House and gardens and conveniently accessible to the popular Village amenities and excellent walking routes. Northiam Village benefits from a choice of excellent walking routes, two convenience stores, award winning Doctor's surgery, Opticians, Dentist surgery, popular Bakery and Hardware store. CHAIN FREE.
