Believed to be constructed in the sixteenth century, Pond Cottage is a quintessential downland property. Originally two cottages, it features lovely south-facing grounds of just under half an acre. Extended to the side in 1967, the original cottage showcases historic charm with period features including exposed timber and flint. Upon entering, you find a sitting room with an attractive brick fireplace. A second sitting room features a bay window overlooking the village pond. The original cottage includes a study, and at the rear, there is a kitchen and boot room under the catslide roof, both opening onto the garden. Upstairs, three bedrooms with low casement windows provide views of the front garden, village green, and downs beyond. The side extension, connected to the original cottage's western elevation, has three rooms that were previously used as ground-floor bedrooms or ancillary accommodation. It also includes a kitchenette/utility room opening to the rear garden, a bathroom, an inner hallway, and a door leading to a front porch.
Set in approximately 0.4 acres, the rear L-shaped garden is well maintained, featuring expansive lawn areas and a variety of shrubs and plants within the borders. The southwestern section of the garden, tucked beside the formal lawn, contains a substantial vegetable patch. To the side, the property provides off-street parking on the driveway along with a detached single garage/garden store. At the front, opposite the village pond, a wrought iron gate leads to a front stable door, an inviting lawn, and a charming garden well, combining history with natural beauty.
The village of East Dean lies roughly between Chichester, Midhurst and Petworth and also within 2 miles of Goodwood. There is a popular public house in the village and nearby in Singleton a fine village cricket green. The stunning countryside of the South Downs National Park is immediately to hand with a varied choice of footpaths and bridleways. Nearby Goodwood is internationally known for its famous racecourse and also provides a country club with tennis courts and two 18 hole golf courses. The annual Festival of Speed held at Goodwood has become a prominent international event as has the Revival at its historic motor circuit. The airfield within the motor circuit also provides facilities for private aircraft. Chichester is approximately 8 miles to the south and provides a comprehensive range of shopping amenities, arranged partly within its pedestrianised centre dominated by the Norman cathedral and ancient city walls. The arts are well represented with facilities including the internationally known Festival Theatre and Pallant House Gallery housing one of the best modern art collections in the country.
