KEY FEATURES
SUMMARY
This secret cottage, located just off one of Rye’s most famous cobbled streets and a mere couple of minutes walk from the main shopping area and all the many amenities on offer, would be ideal for anyone looking for a second home or welcoming escape in the heart of Rye. The fact that Rye is a very popular tourist destination and the beautiful Romney Marshes and coast are just a stone’s throw away, would also make this property attractive to anyone looking for a possible holiday home, investment opportunity or holiday let (subject of course to any necessary permissions or restrictions). The characterful living accommodation, which is arranged over three floors and has everything you would expect from a charming timber framed 16th Century property, consists of a spacious sitting / dining room with huge fireplace and wood burner, a compact cottage style kitchen, shower room and two good size double bedrooms, both of which have wonderful far reaching views towards Camber Sands, Rye Harbour, Camber Castle and Winchelsea. This property also benefits from a pretty part walled south facing courtyard garden. Although in need of some tlc and modernisation, this unique home offers so much and if given the attention is now deserves, will continue to be the very special, much loved home it has always been. NO ONWARD CHAIN.
DETAILS
Entrance Passageway
A small wooden door with "Tara House" on it fronts the cobbled street on the south side of Church Square. On opening it, it reveals a long thin passageway which leads you down to the front door of this secret cottage, which would not be out of place in the Harry Potter books!
Sitting / Dining Room
A heavy wooden door opens into a spacious sitting/dining room with leaded windows to one side and French doors to the rear that open up onto the courtyard beyond. Exposed beams and floorboards, together with a huge fireplace with wood burner, give this space all the character you would expect from a property of this age, something that continues throughout the rest of the house.
