There’s nothing to “wine” about at Spring Cottage in Albourne, West Sussex, which comes with a highly successful boutique vineyard and soaks up uninterrupted views of Devil’s Dyke and the South Downs from its generous plot of landscaped gardens and grounds.
The 17th-century, four-bedroom cottage owns 40 per cent of an established vineyard of Pinot Noir and Chardonnay grapes, which have produced an award-winning sparking wine and a bumper harvest this year.
Original charm in the cottage includes a mass of beams and an inglenook fireplace in the open-plan sitting/dining room, while a new glass wing houses a stunning kitchen/family/dining room leading to large patio and gardens through sliding glazed doors.
It's for sale for £1,195,000, through Hamptons International (01403 611041).
