Welcome to Rose Cottage, a gorgeous character cottage enjoying an enviable location overlooking the picture-postcard village green in the heart of the village conservation area – a real gem of a location in the heart of the incredibly desirable Sussex village of Newick. This is a rarely available opportunity to acquire a character home in a chocolate-box setting offering a quintessential village lifestyle.

Originally believed to have been converted from a barn in the mid 1900s and subsequently extended, the home offers spacious accommodation (see floorplan for layout & dimensions) and a really charming, inviting feel throughout.

The 26ft sitting room is the hub of this home and an impressive living space with plenty of room for sitting and dining areas, two windows looking over the green and an attractive fireplace with log burner, perfect for a cosy winter’s evening. French doors open on to a paved courtyard also, great during the summer months. Double doors connect this room with the dual aspect study – the perfect work-from-home space. That said, this room easily be used as a formal dining room. With the doors open, the space extends to nearly 40ft – a fabulous space for entertaining.

The ground floor also has a bathroom with separate walk-in shower, cloakroom and storage cupboard for shoes & coats.

On the first floor you have three bedrooms and two bath/shower rooms. The main bedroom was created as the result of an extension in the early 2010s and is a lovely size with fitted wardrobes and its own modern ensuite shower room. The second bedroom extends to over 20ft and also enjoys fitted wardrobe space. The third bedroom is a smaller double/generous single, again with fitted wardrobes and a lovely view over the village green.

The house has oil fired central heating, is fully double glazed and is offered for sale with no onward chain.
