Mockbridge, Henfield

Bottings Farmhouse comprises a handsome detached former farmhouse, Listed Grade II of special architectural and historic interest and being believed to be of 17th Century or earlier origin. The good size house offers a great opportunity for an incoming purchaser to undertake sympathetic refurbishment to create a fine family house enjoying a peaceful semi-rural location overlooking a good size garden. The property is close to extensive countryside walks and is within convenient driving distance of main routes and centres including Henfield village within 1.5 miles.
The accommodation includes rooms of character with many traditional features including farmhouse kitchen/breakfast room with oak flooring and exposed beams, two bay windows, range of fitted kitchen units, door to walk-in larder and separate door and steps down to a small cellar. The two reception rooms are accessed from an internal hallway and include a West facing living room with inglenook fireplace and exposed timbers whilst the main sitting room also includes an inglenook fireplace and is double aspect facing South and North and with French door out to the garden. To the remainder of the ground floor is a rear staircase with adjacent modern fitted shower room with fitted cupboards and an adjacent fitted utility kitchen with door out to the garden.
To the first floor and accessed by the main staircase is the double aspect principal bedroom one with corner cupboard and door to stairs to attic. Across the landing is double bedroom two, currently a through-bedroom which links to double bedroom three with rear staircase to the ground floor and door to dressing/shower room. To the other side of bedroom two and accessed under a low tie-beam is a dressing room which in turn has a low doorway under a tie-beam to bedroom four which includes a small ensuite shower room off.
Approached from a long private driveway shared with two neighbouring residential properties there is an attractive approach to the property thence leading to a private driveway on the North side of the house and with further grassed area offering scope, subject to all necessary consents, for potential further parking and garaging.
The very attractive and good size garden lies on the South and West sides of the house with areas of terracing at the rear of the house and then wide areas of lawn interspersed with mixed planting including colourful climbers and herbaceous plants and shrubs to the West end to the part dividing wall with greenhouse and old piggeries. To the South-West corner of the plot is a detached workshop/storage building previously with consent for alteration and adaptation, but which has since lapsed. The property as a whole and including part of the drive extends to approximately 0.86 of an acre (0.35 Ha).
