Description
An outstanding detached house set in a wonderful semi-rural location on the outskirts of the popular village of Fittleworth. Originally constructed in the early 1800s as the head gardener’s cottage for Coates Castle, Garden House has undergone sympathetic refurbishment by the current owners and now provides versatile family accommodation together with a superb detached cottage.
The principal house is approached via a gravel driveway providing parking for numerous vehicles. An impressive entrance hall leads to the drawing room, which features an attractive fireplace with a wood-burning stove. Beyond this is the spacious dining room and, in turn, the conservatory, formerly the head gardener’s greenhouse. Great care has been taken to create an authentic space very much in keeping with the original era of the house, featuring a zinc roof with glazed apex and the benefit of underfloor heating. This room enjoys wonderful views and provides an exceptional setting for entertaining throughout the year.
Arguably the most striking room on the ground floor is the kitchen/breakfast room, installed by the current owners and fitted with an oil-fired Aga and stylish cabinetry. Extending to approximately 34 feet in length, it forms a superb family hub, complemented by an adjoining utility room, cloakroom, and snug.
A study offers excellent work-from-home opportunities, while a versatile basement, currently arranged as a games room, provides scope for alternative uses, such as a cinema room.
On the first floor, the triple-aspect principal suite includes a dressing area and en suite bathroom, and enjoys a stunning outlook across the property’s land. The second bedroom also benefits from an en suite bathroom, while three further well-proportioned bedrooms are served by a family bathroom with separate shower.
The gardens and grounds form a wonderful setting for the house, with a terrace and swimming pool positioned within the formal garden area. The pool features a remote-controlled electric safety cover. Beyond lies a 7-acre meadow which may appeal to buyers with equestrian interests; within this field stands a shepherd’s hut, available by separate negotiation. Also of note is a Grade II listed walled garden and an area of historic woodland.
In addition to the main house, there is a detached cottage currently operating as a successful holiday let. It offers excellent accommodation, including a striking kitchen/living room, and two bedrooms each with their own en suite facilities.
A range of useful outbuildings includes a detached double garage with first-floor storage, a large tractor shed, and an additional store. In total, the grounds extend to approximately 13.8 acres.
Location
