Tile Cottage is a pretty 2 bedroom period dwelling, located in the very heart of this popular village. The property was split perhaps 50 years ago from a single building and formally listed Grade II in 1983. Dating from the late 18th Century the construction is of red brick with grey headers under a tiled roof with more modern bays. Of particular note, is the separate studio building that stands at the rear and adjacent to the courtyard gardens. The owners have created a useful off-road parking space for a car to the side.
The cottage exudes great character and charm with good head heights throughout. There is modern gas fired central heating to radiators and secondary glazing to the front windows. The current owners have owned the property for ten years and soon after purchasing completed a significant program of improvements including a lovely new kitchen and shower room. The studio has a number uses and benefits with more potential still, subject any consents. The garden is an easy to maintain private courtyard laid to paving. A small area of flying freehold exists over the shower room.
Located in this highly convenient central position and close to the pretty village green , the cottage is a few moments' walk from the village shop and community owned pub restaurant, The Half Moon. Balcombe also has a tea room, social club, tennis courts, primary school and nursery together with a mainline railway station with Thames Link and Southern services to London and Brighton. The village is also renown for its beautiful walks around the neighbouring Balcombe Estate and the Ardingly reservoir. The northbound link onto the A/M23 is to be found at Crawley about 5 -10 minutes drive.
