PLEASE NOTE: There is currently existing planning permission for the present detached two bedroomed cottage to be substantially extended on two level, so as to become a much larger two / three bedroomed character cottage, which benefits from being located in one of the most desirable locations in East Sussex, as well as directly backing onto open farmland.

The existing plans and planning permission would see a much larger open plan downstairs sitting room and dining room, as well as a third bedroom / study being created downstairs, in addition to a downstairs cloakroom. Furthermore, there would be two bedrooms upstairs, but also with the added benefit of a family bathroom / shower room.
