An outstanding and beautifully positioned 4 bedroom 2 bathroom detached country home occupying a completely secluded plot of 1.3 acres enjoying stunning rural views across the adjoining farmland and South Downs beyond, with an adjoining heated swimming pool and double garage.
Princes is truly built before its time, an individual and architecturally designed country home constructed in the 1960s with the focus of enjoying uninterrupted views towards the South Downs. The property enjoys a completely secluded plot with an impressive long driveway way off a rarely used country lane. The accommodation is well arranged, made up by several spacious reception rooms on the ground floor boasting wonderful space for entertaining with a conservatory, garden room and adjoining heated swimming pool. The first floor has 4 double bedrooms, 2 art deco style bathrooms and a tremendous loft room which is accessed via an electronic loft hatch and staircase.
The accommodation extends to 3,757 sq ft and is entered via a spacious hallway with wood block flooring, a cloakroom found nearby and large built-in storage cupboards. There is a kitchen/breakfast room made of a range of matching units and a separate utility room. A dining room with a personal door opening to the gardens, an impressive 27'4 x 14'11 sitting room with an attractive open fireplace and French doors continuing through to a large conservatory. An inner hallway found off the kitchen provides access to a boiler room, useful pantry and the integral double garage. Furthermore there is a garden room with access to a workshop and store room and flows through to the garden store and the covered heated swimming pool.
From the entrance hall a staircase rises to the first floor landing which provides a 18'7 x 15' principle bedroom with built in wardrobes and an en-suite shower room. There are three further double bedrooms with one benefitting from a balcony overlooking the adjoining farmland and a family bathroom comprising an elegant suite with a large walk-in shower. An electronic loft hatch with staircase rises to the vaulted loft rooms with velux windows which served in the past as a hobbies room and office.
Outside the property is approached via a long sweeping driveway beautifully lined with flowers and trees leading to the parking area with space for several vehicles which in turn provides access to the integral double garage. To one side there is an area of front garden with a small seating terrace and a raised flower bed to the other side.
