Description    In sought after semi rural surroundings off a country lane, a detached cottage available on the open market for the first time in many years and which would now benefit from further modernisation. Ethnam Cottage presents part weather borded elevations under a tiled roof, extended by the current owners and with spacious accommodation over three floors. In addition to the formal established gardens is a paddock with seperate gated access from the lane and with a tree lined boundary, small dell and a haven for bird and wild life, suitable for those with equestrian interests.

Headline    A delightful period cottage in need of modernisation but with spacious and very deceptive family accommodation, large garage, heated pool, established and well stocked gardens, seperate paddock, in all around 3 acres and available with immediate vacant possession. An opportunity not to be missed.

Situation    In pleasant rural surroundings and within a short drive of Sandhurst and Hawkhurst villages, each with their range of shopping facilities catering for those day to day needs. There are established state and private schools in the local area, good access to the A21/M25 road and motorway network and from Etchingham station, regular services to London on the Cannon Street/Charing cross line.

Directions    Travelling south on the A21 and on reaching the crossraods at Flimwell, turn left onto the A268 to Hawkhurst. Proceed through the village passing Tescos on your left towards Sandhurst and in due course you will see a white 'finger post' on the junction with the main road and Ethnam Lane. Turn right onto the lane and Ethnam Corttage will be found in due course on your right hand side, the entrance to the paddock is opposite the cottage.
