An attractive, two bedroom, unlisted character cottage in the popular and charming village of Cowden
Description
Found in the High Weald Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty on the pretty High Street of Cowden, 5 Forge Cottage is an attractive and beautifully presented two bedroom end of terrace home, boasting exposed timber beams and a decorative open fireplace, adding to the charm of the property.
The front door opens into the sitting room, enjoying a feature fireplace with fitted cabinetry to one side. The sitting room opens to the kitchen, which is fitted with traditional shaker-style cabinets topped with oak worksurfaces, providing a good-level of storage and preparation space, together with space for a freestanding oven, fridge freezer and a dishwasher. The adjoining dining room offers a charming place to entertain friends. There is a door opening from the dining room to the rear neighbouring courtyard, in which 5 Forge Cottage enjoys a right of way across.
The first floor is home to the principal bedroom, which benefits from a bank of recessed fitted wardrobes and an open fireplace, served by the well-appointed family bathroom, fitted with both a bath and shower, together with a WC and sink basin.
There is a further bedroom on the second floor, enjoying vaulted ceilings, fitted wardrobes, and a bespoke bookshelf with a hidden built-in desk, offering a flexible space that can be arranged to suit; perhaps as a study, ideal for today’s working from home requirements. Ample on-street parking is available within the High Street.
