About this property

  • Barnsfold Cottage is a charming period cottage, originally dating back to around 1550, offering a blend of historical charm and modern functionality. Unlisted and thoughtfully extended over the years, the cottage now boasts a spacious and practical layout.

    On the ground floor, a small entrance lobby opens into a delightful dining room with impressive inglenook fireplace, light and bright, the perfect place to relax and entertain. Overlooking the south facing gardens, the kitchen/breakfast room connects with a cosy snug, very much establishing itself as the heart of the home. A well-proportioned sitting room with adjoining study has wonderful French doors opening onto the rear garden. A staircase from the dining room ascends to three bedrooms, one with en suite shower room and a family bathroom whereas a second staircase leads from the sitting room to the principal bedroom with en suite bathroom.

    The cottage features many period details, including exposed wall and ceiling timbers, lovely old doors, and a large inglenook fireplace in the dining room, replicated in the sitting room.

    The beautifully maintained 2.5 acres of garden and grounds create a peaceful, rural atmosphere, rich with birdlife and birdsong. There is a large outbuilding currently utilised as a home office with en suite studio room above, a carefully fenced swimming pool area with a pool house, two extensive outbuildings, an apple orchard and a productive fruit and vegetable section. The rear portion of the grounds works successfully as a paddock area.

    Barnsfold Cottage is set in a delightful rural location amongst miles of open weald land with glorious farmland views from every window. Set well away from passing traffic, the house is situated on a bridleway which serves a small number of properties and leads through fields to woodland beyond.

I love the setting of Barnsfold Cottage. The combination of the views and the south facing gardens make it the most idyllic spot to relax.
