Proceed for a further 1.3 miles and turn left to Bury Village. At the crossroads turn left to Bury Hollow and Street Cottage will be found after 0.2 miles on the left behind a white picket fence.

 

Street Cottage enjoys a private and secluded location within the Conservation Area of the village. Situated in the new South Downs National Park, Bury is a delightful small village in the lea of the South Downs with a good pub/restaurant, primary school and Dorset House (boys) private school. There is a small village store and post office, parish church and many clubs and societies. Nearby Pulborough (4.6 miles) provides supermarkets, a heath centre and a mainline station (Victoria 80 minutes). The neighbouring village of Amberley (1.5 miles) also has a mainline station (Victoria 87 minutes).The city of Chichester (12.5 miles) provides more comprehensive shopping and also the renowned Festival Theatre.The surrounding countryside is some of the most beautiful in West Sussex with many miles of footpaths and bridleways.

This Grade II listed detached cottage probably dates from the seventeenth century with later additions and has part rendered elevations of brick and stone under a clay tiled roof. Features of this delightful period property include exposed timbers, open fireplaces and oak floors to some rooms. The double aspect kitchen is fitted with a range of pine fronted wall and floor units with tiled work tops, stainless steel sink and space for appliances. The adjoining breakfast room with its exposed wall and ceiling beams leads through to the well proportioned dining room which has an open fireplace and glazed double doors to an east facing terrace. The triple aspect Sitting room also has an open fireplace and a glazed door on to the garden. A cloakroom completes the ground floor. From the breakfast room a staircase rises to the first floor landing with its attractive "oak gate" balustrade. There is access to the loft and a range of cupboards. Each of the three double bedrooms has a semi-vaulted ceiling and a wash basin and two have extensive cupboards. The large bathroom could perhaps (subject to usual consents) be divided to form a shower room and bathroom if required.

OUTSIDE:

The enchanting gardens are principally to the west of the cottage and have been carefully established over many years with a variety of mature trees and shrubs including Roses, several Acers, Wisteria, Clematis and a Eucalyptus tree. The garden is laid mainly to lawn with a herringbone brick sun terrace and several well stocked herbaceous borders. To one side of the garden is the detached studio and adjoining summer house and beyond this are a storage area and a small vegetable plot. In addition to the gravelled parking area with room for 3/4 cars there is a large single garage with a small store to the rear.
