Tillington

A delightful cottage with plenty of period character set in a sought-after position in the heart of the peaceful West Sussex village of Tillington. The cottage features exposed beams and brickwork, original fireplaces and set in an attractive country garden.

Hillside Cottage is thought to date from the 17th century or perhaps even earlier, with its timber framing and red brick infill.

There are two ground floor reception rooms, providing space in which to relax and entertain. They include the sitting room with its wooden flooring, dual aspect with French doors opening onto the garden and open fireplace, as well as the dining room, which has an imposing inglenook fireplace with its original timber lintel and is fitted with a woodburning stove. The ground floor also has a well-equipped kitchen with modern fittings, including wooden units to base and wall level, an integrated double oven, an induction hob and an extractor hood, as well as a breakfast bar.

Upstairs there are three well-presented double bedrooms of similar proportions. They include the principal bedroom with its brick-built fireplace and built-in storage, as well as two further bedrooms benefitting from stunning views across the surrounding countryside. The first floor also has the family bathroom with its mosaic tiling and modern fittings. The attic space provides useful further home storage among the timber eaves.
