"A rare opportunity to acquire 'The Friary', a delightful historic charming cottage situated in the Conservation Area within the heart of Cuckfield village. The property is believed to date back to the 1600s and boasts numerous character and original features including an impressive array of exposed wall and ceiling timbers, a feature brick inglenook fireplace, exposed brickwork, oak flooring, original stencil mural on the landing believed to date back to 1640, character internal doors, sash and cottage style windows. The property has been tastefully extended, well maintained and much improved by the present owner, being sympathetically modernised and refurbished to a particularly high standard yet retaining much of its original charm and character. The spacious and versatile accommodation over two floors comprise; a country style kitchen/breakfast room with a bespoke Shaker style kitchen with built in appliances including a fridge and dishwasher and feature electric Aga with three ovens and hotplates (replaced 18 months ago), a sitting/dining room with feature brick inglenook fireplace and a playroom, an inner hallway/study area with stairs rising to the first floor, a re-fitted ground floor cloakroom/WC and a family room with brick open fireplace and Italian tiled floor with window and glazed door out to courtyard and rear gardens. To the first floor there is a master bedroom with a re-fitted fully tiled en-suite luxury shower room with Victorian style suite and walk-in shower with Chadder & Co. chrome shower unit, two further double bedrooms with a range of built in cupboards and wardrobes, a luxury Victorian style family bathroom with white suite including a Chadder & Co. free standing bath. Other benefits of the property include a recently replaced gas fired 'Worcester' boiler and 'Megaflow' hot water system. Outside there is a 1 bedroom detached timber constructed GARDEN ANNEXE/STUDIO with its own private access, a well established courtyard and rear gardens, a private driveway and garage."
