Weavers Lane, Henfield

Weaver’s Lane is a quiet road, tucked away off Nep Town Road, just a short walk from Henfield village high street. Just a few meters from your front door, the views of the Downs open up, there are marked footpaths, and you can begin walking in the countryside. This characterful cottage has low ceilings, with exposed beams in the living room and a wood-burning stove as the centrepiece. The living room leads through to a fitted kitchen with cream units and a sink under the window. There is space for an electric cooker, washing machine, and a slimline dishwasher, and space for a full-height fridge/freezer. The worktops are solid wood and the floor has lovely terracotta-style ceramic tiles. The bathroom has a modern white suite, with metro tiles and contrasting grout, and there is a thermostatic shower over the bath. Upstairs are two double bedrooms, one at the front with a westerly aspect and the other facing east at the back of the house. Outside a patio garden continues around into the useful side access which has a gate to Weaver’s Lane. The combination boiler is under two years old and all the windows are double-glazed.
