Full Details for 2 Bedroom Detached for sale in Billingshurst, RH14 :

A beautiful quintessential detached cottage which started life as a barn dating back to 1705 and converted into this stunning cottage in 1801 by James Thayre. The property has matured over the years and has been extended to its current configuration and subsequently grade II listed. There is a plethora of exposed wall and ceiling timbers throughout, a charming sitting room with a beautiful inglenook fireplace and woodburning stove. The sitting room is semi divided from the dining room by exposed stud work and there is a separate study with outlook over the rear garden. From the reception hall there is access to a large storage room and the generous kitchen/breakfast room is complete with the 'must have' Aga. The kitchen is well fitted with beech work tops and slate flooring. The bathroom is very nicely fitted with a roll top bath which adds even more character, and there is a separate corner shower. Both the bedrooms on the first floor are of a double size. This is a stunning detached cottage which requires viewing in person to full appreciate all it has to offer.

The cottage is approached via a timber gate which accesses a shingle driveway providing plenty of off-road parking and leading to a double length detached garage. The large gardens to the front and rear are extremely well maintained with a deep area of lawn, shrubs and mature trees. The rear garden has a paved sun terrace which takes full advantage of the westerly aspect and overlooks the large expanse of lawn, again bordered by mature trees and shrubs making this a beautiful secluded sun trap. Towards the end of the garden there is a solidly constructed timber storage shed as well as a stable which could lend itself for conversion to a work shop or garden studio. In all the total plot extends to approximately ¼ of an acre.

Thayres Cottage enjoys a pleasant semi-rural location about 1.2 miles to the north/east of the picturesque village of Wisborough Green and 2½ miles to the west of Billingshurst. Billingshurst provides a good range of amenities, schooling for all age groups and a mainline railway station with train services into London/Victoria and the south coast. The larger provincial centres of Horsham and Guildford are about 9.8 and 16 miles away respectively.
