SITUATION
Yew Tree Cottage lies in a semi-rural location in Rowfant, on the edge of Crawley Down, a popular village with local shopping facilities, a medical centre and dental practice. There are good transport connections, being within a short drive of the A23 and M23 leading to the coast, Gatwick Airport and the M25. East Grinstead is approx 4 miles, with its shopping, leisure and recreational facilities and a mainline station (London Bridge and Victoria in approx. 1hr). Three Bridges mainline station is also 4 miles (London Bridge and Victoria in just over half an hour). There is a wide range of reputable public and outstanding primary and secondary schools nearby, as well as Ardingly College.

DESCRIPTION
Believed to date from around 1850, Yew Tree Cottage is a charming single-storey home that has been sympathetically extended and updated to create comfortable, well-balanced accommodation with plenty of character. A welcoming entrance hall leads through to a modern, shaker-style kitchen, fitted with an electric oven and hob, integrated dishwasher and fridge freezer. The kitchen flows into a bright dining room/conservatory, enjoying views over the garden and opening via French doors onto the terrace. Beyond this, the cosy sitting room provides an inviting gathering space, with an open fireplace and further French doors leading out to the garden. There are three comfortable double bedrooms, together with a stylish family bathroom featuring a freestanding bath with shower over.

A garden studio provides excellent additional space, arranged as three separate spaces and well suited to entertaining, home working or hobby use. Practical utility facilities include plumbing for a washing machine and a WC, adding to the flexibility of the space.

OUTSIDE
A gravel driveway, bordered on one side by a stream, creates an attractive approach to the cottage and provides ample parking, complemented by a carport and timber garage.

The beautiful, private south-facing rear garden is a particular highlight. Principally laid to lawn and framed by trees and mature planting, it offers a wonderfully secluded feel. A terrace adjoins the rear of the house, creating an ideal space for outdoor dining and entertaining. In all, the property extends to approximately half an acre.
An additional circa 4 acres of semi-ancient woodland may also be available by separate negotiation.
