Rattle Road – Westham

The name Suntrap Cottage belies the space on offer at this property! The original cottage dates back to mid 1920’s and over the years it has been extended with the final phase presenting the home as it is now having been lovingly and thoughtfully extended and updated by the current owners. This home now boasts four double bedrooms, three reception rooms, ample off road parking plus large purpose built garage and large garden with out buildings giving flexible space and potential.

Situated on Rattle Road in the highly sought after village of Westham, Pevensey and within the stunning scenery of Pevensey Levels. There are ample local amenities together with the access to rail links taking you directly to Hastings, Brighton, Gatwick and London Victoria. The village school serves Primary age children with Secondary level well represented within the area. Pevensey Bay is also easily accessed and caters for those loving their water sports and activities and miles of country walks are all around including the 1066 walk from the Castle.

The entrance to the home is tucked away from the road and approached by the driveway which opens up to allow for ample parking to the front of the property and the garage. The original part of the cottage is double fronted with two reception rooms now forming the second living room which has a cosy feel to it enhanced by the fireplace with fitted wood burning stove. There is then the more formal dining room. This living and dining room opens into the newer extended part of the home where you can really see the thought and care taken to give an open plan feel to the space whilst creating areas of distinction to include the stunning fitted kitchen, breakfast area and further double aspect living room. 

The reception areas all feature a hard wearing walnut or oak wood flooring, with the kitchen having a gloss ceramic tiled floor. There are double glazed windows and doors throughout with the central heating being via a gas fired boiler. The two bathrooms have been refitted as has the studio in the rear garden which now has shower room facility and fitted kitchen area and as such could provide annex potential or guest facility. The home has a calm and warm aesthetic to its decor and really shows off the quality of the fittings throughout all areas of the property.

The remaining accommodation on offer comprises of a well equipped utility room just next to the kitchen which also houses a separate W.C. The kitchen has been fitted with modern gloss units and quartz work surfaces with the addition of the peninsular unit giving the separation between the kitchen and breakfast area and having inset feature shelving.

Upstairs the four bedrooms are all double in size with the main bedroom having a lovely double aspect and en-suite shower facilities, plus there is a further modern bath and shower room on the first floor.

The gardens are a particular feature of the property. The are mature and extend to an expansive laid to lawn area from the lower, and upper patios. These spaces make the most of the light and sunshine and make entertaining a must with the Summerhouse being perfect for the cooler evenings. The purpose built garage has an electric remote controlled roller door, is equipped with power inside and out and has been designed with wooden cladding and pitched tiled roof to fit within the character of the property and surrounding area.
