Barn Cottage is a captivating country residence with origins tracing back to the late 19th century. Originally constructed using materials from nearby period cottages, this home has remained in the same family for over six decades, presenting an excellent opportunity for a new owner to infuse contemporary updates while preserving its historical essence. Character features such as exposed beams, a combination of tiled, parquet, and wooden floors, along with charming oak doors and substantial fireplaces are prominent throughout the property. The south-facing aspect brings in ample light and showcases the picturesque countryside views.
The property includes multiple wooden outbuildings—housing a playroom, woodshed, mower shed, and double garage—as well as additional lean-to structures and a greenhouse. A former coach house/stables also resides within the grounds. Set on an extensive plot of 8.9 acres featuring manicured lawns and a hard tennis court, the estate also encompasses an orchard with various fruit trees.
Surrounded by lush woodland known as Birchen Copse—covering 66.9 acres—and accessed via well-maintained tracks ideal for walking and cycling, Barn Cottage offers further potential for outdoor activities.
Current services include mains water, electricity, and oil-fired central heating; however, there are ongoing investigations into establishing separate water supplies for both Barn Cottage and the adjacent bungalow.
This property combines period charm with substantial grounds in the serene village of Chiddingfold where local amenities abound. Transport links are excellent with access to London via nearby rail networks and major roads facilitating journeys to London airports. The area is also notable for its educational institutions and diverse recreational opportunities.
