Broomfield Road, Henfield

You enter the property through an entrance lobby with space for coats and shoes. From here you are straight into the heart of this wonderful home – a spacious living room, with two windows looking over the front garden, and a particular feature of this room are the low ceilings and original oak beams, with the furniture arranged around wood burning stove set into the substantial fireplace. This leads to an opening to a separate dining area with a window overlooking the garden, and access to the good sized modern fitted kitchen. There is a breakfast bar with room for two people, the worktops are solid wood and there is a butler sink under the window with a Damixa tap. Neff appliances include a five burner gas hob, a double oven, and an integral microwave. There is space and plumbing for a dishwasher. The cottage also has the luxury of a separate downstairs utility room with space for a washing machine, a separate dryer and a WC. Stairs from the living room lead to the first floor where there is a superb main bedroom, with double-height vaulted ceilings and exposed beams. This room has a large built-in wardrobe and an ensuite shower with WC, wash basin and further storage space. A second good-size bedroom has its own ensuite bathroom, including a freestanding double-ended bath. The property benefits from wooden framed double glazing. Back on the ground floor, a door from the kitchen leads to a courtyard garden with a gate onto the main grounds at the front and side of the cottage. There is an office building in the grounds which has a vaulted ceiling and exposed beams, with both a single door on the side and double doors onto the main garden area.
