Full Description
Daisy Cottage is situated in a no through road leading up onto the South Downs within the popular village of Rodmell. There is a fine outlook to the front across a permanent green and from the first floor rooms there are glimpses of the South Downs. The village is set within the proposed South Downs National Park about three miles to the south of the historic county town of Lewes. Within the village are a primary school and church whilst Lewes provides excellent shopping, leisure and other facilities together with main line railway station with services to London and Brighton. The Universities at Falmer are easily reached and the city of Brighton and Hove is about nine miles. Gatwick Airport can be reached by car in around forty five minutes. The surrounding downland provides for excellent walking and riding whilst sailing is available from Newhaven and golf at both Lewes and Seaford.
The property was completed to an individual, enhanced, design by 'Potton' about two years ago for the present owners and incorporates a number of period style features including massive exposed beams and posts along with a deep inglenook and wood burning stove in the Sitting Room. Potton homes are designed with inordinately high insulation specifications which considerably reduce the average running cost for a home of this size. There is the benefit of the outstanding term of the NHBC certificate together with a built in allergy cleaning extraction system to all rooms. Elevations are a combination of flint with brick quoins to the front and brick to the rear with a pitched and tile clad roof.
