Tomtits Lane, Forest Row, RH18

A charming detached family home, originally a traditional stone forester’s cottage, which has been thoughtfully extended over the years and has recently undergone a comprehensive programme of refurbishment. Combining characterful features with beautifully presented contemporary accommodation, the property occupies an attractive position on the edge of this sought-after village, within easy reach of the stunning Ashdown Forest.

The accommodation is arranged over two floors and begins with an inviting entrance hall, which leads through to the impressive kitchen/dining room. Recently refitted, this light and spacious room features an excellent range of wall and floor units, complemented by work surfaces and a comprehensive selection of integrated appliances, including an induction hob, double oven, dishwasher and fridge freezer. French doors open directly onto the terrace, creating an ideal space for entertaining and everyday family life. A useful utility cupboard provides additional storage.

The sitting room is a particularly welcoming space, featuring attractive parquet flooring and a characterful brick fireplace housing a wood-burning stove, with fitted cupboards to one side. A further reception room, which could equally serve as a fifth bedroom or home office, and a cloakroom complete the ground floor accommodation.

On the first floor, the principal bedroom benefits from a well-appointed en-suite shower room. There are three further bedrooms, all served by a beautifully presented family bathroom.

Outside

The property is approached through a pair of attractive wooden gates, which open onto a generous parking and turning area in front of the double garage. The gardens wrap around the house and include areas of lawn and a terrace, providing an appealing setting for outdoor dining, relaxation and family enjoyment.
Combining the charm of its original cottage origins with the comfort and convenience of a recently refurbished family home, this delightful property offers well-balanced accommodation in a wonderful village-edge setting, close to the open countryside of Ashdown Forest.

Situation
