Leydene Cottage is a beautiful five-bedroom family home in the heart of Scaynes Hill with glorious countryside views to the rear of the property.
The property has been extensively refurbished and extended since 2018, to create the lovely home of over 2500 square feet it is today. From the generous entrance hall your eye is drawn through the house to the stunning kitchen and family room beyond. To one side of the hallway is a fabulous double-aspect formal sitting room and a bay fronted double-aspect dining room with open fireplace. The sitting room features bi-fold doors that open onto the rear garden as well as a recess designed for a 75" television with integrated speakers.
The kitchen to the rear of the property is a stunning room, flooded with natural light and includes a central island, high-quality appliances and a plethora of storage and worksurface. Bi-fold doors also lead out to the garden, creating a seamless connection between interior and exterior. To the side of the kitchen is a utility room with garden access and a downstairs cloakroom.
Leading up the central staircase to the first-floor landing are four double bedrooms and a dressing room with a bank of built-in wardrobes. The guest suite has an ensuite shower room and there is a well-appointed family bathroom.
On the second floor is a beautiful principal suite with rear views of the countryside and a dressing room with built-in wardrobes. Across the landing is a luxuriously appointed shower room with twin sinks and ample storage too.
