General Description
Surrounded by the glorious Arundel countryside, is this picturesque, grade II listed, 19th century cottage. Completely renovated, the original flint and brick exterior has been carefully exposed. The clean lines of the new reed thatch roof add to the beauty of the building. Internally, traditional limed oak beams and hand made doors create authenticity.

Upstairs, all flooring is polished oak, creating a warm and modern feeling, yet still in keeping with the building. With attention to detail, from the handmade wrought iron light fittings, kitchen cupboard and drawer handles and ham hooks to the fireplaces with their cast iron wood burners and wood burning stove, everything has been designed to keep this incredible building traditional yet modern.

External Utility Room
Within easy reach of the cottage there is a spacious utility room. There is a good amount of shelving and storage space. There is a butler sink, supplied with hot water from a wall mounted electric water heater. A wall mounted tumble dryer and a washing machine are conveniently placed. In a recess by the door is a handy space that the vendor currently uses for wine racks and a wine fridge.
Stable Blocks
Two sectional, moveable stable blocks have been placed in the grounds, one adjacent to the cottage, currently used for storage and one adjacent to the paddock, in use by the vendor's two horses.
Paddock
There is a reasonable sized paddock, right next to the stables, for convenience.
Workshop & Storage
A large outbuilding has been divided into two rooms, one racked out for storage with further storage space in the eaves, the other has been made into a woodworking shop, fitted out with benches, shelves and racking. There is an electricity supply and lighting.
Garden
The pretty garden has been walled in by the cottage and is a mass of colour with carefully placed plants and shrubs. The property is 'L' shaped, and the leg leading away from the cottage contains the stables, workshops and some other items, including, a greenhouse, raspberry box and a container the vendors use for storage and which they will be taking with them.
Agents Note
The new reed thatch roof is a great alternative to straw. A fire resistant membrane has been installed under the thatch. The roof comes with a 30 year guarantee and protects not only from fire risk, but vermin as well. It should be noted that insurance on this property is now comparable with that of a dwelling with a standard roof. The property has the benefit of mains water, electricity, drainage and gas fired central heating. The vendor informs us that the area of grazing land and area where the horse box is parked adjacent to the Calcetto Cottage is available for rent by separate negotiation with the adjoining owner.
