Broxmead Lane, Bolney

A truly one-of-a-kind countryside retreat, this beautifully converted stone-built former farm building is set in the highly desirable village of Bolney, surrounded by open countryside and positioned within easy reach of the A23, offering excellent connections to London, Gatwick Airport and the South Coast.

Full of individuality and original charm, the cottage has been thoughtfully transformed to preserve the integrity of its former agricultural life, with its handsome stone elevations and authentic architectural features creating a home of warmth, soul and enduring appeal.

Tucked away within a wonderfully private and picturesque setting, it offers a sense of calm and seclusion, where the romance of rural living meets the comfort and convenience of a carefully considered contemporary home. Every aspect has been designed to deliver ease and tranquillity, whether enjoyed as a permanent residence, a countryside escape or a peaceful retreat from the pace of modern life.

At the heart of the home lies a generous sitting and dining room, a welcoming and sociable space where the character of the building can truly be appreciated. The well-appointed kitchen complements the cottage's character beautifully, combining practicality with charm to create a space that is both functional and inviting. Two well-proportioned bedrooms provide peaceful and versatile accommodation, each benefitting from air conditioning for year-round comfort and equally suited to family, guests, a home office or a creative studio. A well-finished shower room completes the thoughtfully arranged internal layout.

Outside, the cottage enjoys a delightful sense of seclusion and privacy, with a patio and lawned area enclosed by established hedging, enhancing its enchanting rural setting and features beautiful wisteria climbing the stonework walls. The property is approached via a private shared access serving only six properties and benefits from a private parking area to the front providing ample off-road parking.

Ideally placed for both rural tranquillity and commuter convenience, the property also sits in an area well regarded for equestrian use, with nearby horse stables and neighbouring country estates. Offering strong potential as a boutique Airbnb or high-yield rental opportunity, as well as an idyllic permanent residence, it presents a rare blend of lifestyle and investment appeal.
