Description

Highview is a handsome detached modern house, characterised by brick elevations under a tiled roof with striking gable ends. The accommodation in the main house is spacious and versatile, extending to nearly 2,300 square feet as can be seen on the floor plans that follow. There are two large living spaces on the ground floor: an elegant and generously-proportioned triple aspect sitting room featuring a marble fireplace, and an excellent kitchen, dining and family room, the kitchen being fitted with a range of modern, shaker-style cream units with black granite worktops and a central island. The kitchen is served by a good-sized scullery and utility room; a bedroom and bathroom complete the ground floor.

There are three bedrooms on the first floor, bedroom one benefitting from a dressing area, en suite shower room and access to a private rooftop balcony overlooking the grounds. Bedrooms two and three are served by a family bathroom.

Outside
The property is accessed by a gated private driveway, which leads to a parking area ahead of the house. The formal gardens lie predominantly to the north and west of the house, mainly laid to lawn and dotted with shrubs and young trees.

A detached, timber clad outbuilding lies to the south east of the house, currently used as a gym with a small shower room.

There is a large detached garage/workshop with parking.

Courtyard Stable Block
The courtyard stable block and sand school can be separately accessed from Cowfold Road via their own gated driveway. Arranged around three sides of a square with a gated covered entrance opening to a central block-paved yard, the block comprises six stables, feed and tack rooms, and a self-contained two bedroom Groom’s flat. There are two further stables and a WC adjoining the main block, all with easy access to the sand school and paddocks.
