Glenham Place, Sharpthorne

Nestled within the charming village of Sharpthorne in West Sussex, this delightful two-bedroom mid-terrace cottage offers a wonderful blend of character, individuality and countryside living. Sharpthorne is a highly regarded village set on the edge of the stunning Sussex countryside, offering a peaceful yet well-connected lifestyle. The village itself enjoys a strong community feel and benefits from local amenities including a well-regarded primary school nearby in West Hoathly, village shop and pub, while nearby East Grinstead and Haywards Heath provide a wider selection of shops, restaurants, leisure facilities and mainline railway stations offering excellent commuter links. For those who enjoy the outdoors, the renowned Bluebell Railway is located nearby, offering scenic steam train journeys through beautiful countryside, while the breathtaking Wakehurst Gardens, managed by Kew, are just a short drive away, providing year-round enjoyment with its landscaped gardens, woodland walks and events.
The property itself has been lovingly styled by the current owners who have created a true haven filled with personality, colour and warmth. While the decorative style may be unique, the sense of home is immediately apparent from the moment you step through the front door, with a welcoming atmosphere that embraces you throughout.
The accommodation begins with an entrance porch, a practical and useful space ideal for storing coats and shoes before entering the main living areas. The living room is cosy yet spacious, providing plenty of room for furniture and centred around a charming wood burning stove which forms the heart of the home, perfect for relaxing evenings. Moving through, there is an internal walkway currently used as a study and display area for books and vinyl, offering a creative and flexible space for home working or hobbies.
Adjacent to this area is a storage room which was formerly a downstairs bathroom. This space offers excellent potential for reconfiguration, whether reinstating the bathroom or opening up to create an additional reception room. Alternatively, reconfiguring the upstairs layout could potentially allow for the creation of a third bedroom, subject to the necessary works and approvals.
Continuing through the property, the kitchen diner offers a rustic and individual feel, with ample space for a dining table and chairs. The layout could easily be adapted to suit modern living requirements if desired. To the rear of the property is a lean-to which provides a versatile additional area, particularly enjoyable during the summer months, and offers convenient access into the property from the side parking area.
On the first floor, the accommodation includes a generous shower room which historically served as a bedroom, offering flexibility should buyers wish to alter the layout. There is also a second bedroom positioned at the front of the property. Stairs rise to the second floor where the principal bedroom is located within the loft conversion, complete with its own w.c., creating a private and comfortable retreat.
Externally, the property benefits from a private rear garden, mainly laid to lawn and providing a peaceful outdoor space to enjoy. A charming small barn-style shed sits at the rear of the garden, leading to a footpath that provides access to the parking area positioned beside the hedge. The property is served by an oil tank and oil-fired boiler. Additionally, the current owner rents a garage to the rear and can introduce prospective buyers to the owner should this be of interest.
The property also benefits from access to a communal village recreational area which was gifted to the parish council, providing a wonderful open space for families and children to enjoy outdoor activities.
Full of charm, character and warmth, this unique cottage presents a fantastic opportunity to acquire a truly special home in a sought-after Sussex village setting.
